10:00 a.m. - John Iannone
TITLE: The Mystery of the Shroud of Turin: New Scientific Evidence
DESCRIPTION: No cloth in history from anywhere in the world has been so studied as the Holy Shroud of Turin. Nor has any cloth so caught the fascination and reverence of the world. And still it remains a mystery. Is the Shroud the ancient burial cloth of Jesus providing in its linen fabric the story of His death and Resurrection? Is it a clever medieval hoax of Leonardo da Vinci? What do modern DNA tests reveal regarding the apparent blood stains on the Cloth? Are there images of flowers and pollens on the cloth that trace its history? How were the mysterious images created? Can modern forensic pathologists identify the body of a crucified human supporting the words of the New Testament and weapons and wounds used by Romans soldiers on Jesus? These are just a few of the many intriguing questions discussed with slides in this lecture. The story of the Shroud reads like a mystery novel that will intrigue you and increase your sense of awe and wonder as you contemplate the message of this lecture.
