ALL nonchristian religions are crocks because all their founders are just corpses in graves and boxes somewhere, but Jesus is not..

The Shroud of Turin

The Shroud is woven flax, made by a professional-quality weaver, which was likely only to have been owned by a wealthy man
(e.g., Joseph of Arimathea).

The flax fibers are traceable to the Eastern Mediterranean or the Middle East.
The stitching is identical to an artifact found at Masada in Israel, dated between 40 BC and AD 73.

And the cloth has been otherwise dated to between 300 BC and 300 AD.

Chemical and biological testing proves that there are blood stains on the Shroud, of blood type AB and antigen group MNS.

Moreover, there are no paint pigments of any kind on the Shroud—eliminating the possibility that the Shroud is some sort of supremely clever artistic forgery.

The Shroud bears the image of a grown male, five feet eleven inches tall, with shoulder length hair and a beard—a man who had suffered crucifixion in the Roman fashion.

Would also note that some plants where found that only existed back in that time period.

 

[Stucky]

I offered my back to those who beat me,
my cheeks to those who pulled out my beard;
I did not hide my face
from mocking and spitting.

Isaiah 50:6

If you believe that was a prophecy about Christ's torture then you have to conclude that Christ is not the figure on the shroud.

No shroud or anything else could hold Jesus..-

Isaiah 50:6

If you believe that was a prophecy about Christ's torture then you have to conclude that Christ is not the figure on the shroud.

Unless the middle part of his beard has been torn out (it seems an unnatural shape to grow one, with two points? I don’t think it is implicit that every part of the Lord’s beard would have been ripped out.

 

[e-Enoch]

Isaiah 53:5

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

They Could Not
