Thought I would add this in for more info.
I answered this before in the old group right before it was hacked. The "Shroud of Turin" is actually the image of the Knights Templars (who were Satanists) Grand Master Jacques de Molay. Here is an excerpt from an article I wrote some years back after doing intensive research on the 'Shroud of Turin'
**
The Templars were eventually appointed to protect the Holy Land and keep it from the Moslems during the wars of the Crusades. The order grew into the thousands andgroupswere organized throughout Europe, but France remained their tronghold.
Their seal depicts two men riding one horse because in the early history of the rder, the knights could not afford a horse each.
During their journeys to and from the Holy Land in the Middle East, theyencountered many different peoples. It is possible, they learned of the Goat ofMendes as the Moslems kept records and had knowledge of the history of AncientEgypt where the Goat of Mendes originated.
The Templars grew in both size and wealth, reaching their peak in the 14thcentury. The ending of the wars of the Crusades did not have any impact on theorder as they used the opportunity to travel and enter into commerce and moneylending. They established a very profitable business relationship with the enemyin times of truce. The order accumulated vast wealth and power. They eventually
became the victims of both the greedy Catholic Church that was aware of theirforbidden knowledge and King Philip IV of France who was said to be heavily indebt and owed the order a considerable sum.
*From what I have researched, it appears the real reason the Templar order waspersecuted by the Catholic Church was for their occult knowledge and power they\btained from excavating beneath the Temple at the Dome of the Rock. This power
brought them vast wealth as it is supposed to do for those who have it and theknowledge on how to use it.
Philip IV plotted along with Pope Clement V to destroy the order. October 13th1307, Philip IV had Grand Master Jacques de Molay and 140 other knights arrestedin the Paris Temple. More arrests followed throughout France.
The Templars were subjected to torture en masse. The Catholic Church with itsinquisitors, accused them of Devil worship, blasphemy, sodomy, and idolatry.There was secrecy surrounding their meetings and wild rumors spread concerningbizarre initiation rituals that did much to promote public suspicion of theorder. Under torture, members of the order admitted to renouncing the nazarene,
spitting, trampling and urinating on the crucifix, engaging in intercourse withDemons, indulging in âsexual perversityâ and to worshipping the idol ofBaphomet. Many of the Templars were burned at the stake and murdered by theinquisition, the most noted being Grand Master Jacques de Molay. After beingimprisoned and tortured for seven years, he was burnt alive at the stake.
The Shroud of Turin was of the blood and body fluids of Jacques de Molay as hewas laid on a soft feather bed to recover for more torture from the Catholicinquisitors. Upon close examination, it is obvious given the position of thebody (the top part is shown below), there is no way this was the Nazarene.
The shroud was also inspected by several diverse scholars who proved beyond anydoubt, given the material and constituents, the item was no older than the 12thcentury. The Catholic Church being the prolific liar that it is, continues toscam people to this day

For those of you who are still recovering from xianity:
October 13, 1988
Thursday) At a press conference held in Turin, Cardinal Ballestrero, Archbishop of Turin, makes an official announcement that the results of the three laboratories performing the Carbon dating of the Shroud have determined an approximate 1325 date for the cloth. At a similar press conference held at the British Museum, London, it is announced that the Shroud dates between 1260 and 1390 AD. Newspaper headlines immediately brand the Shroud a fake and declare that the Catholic Church has accepted the results.
I wrote of this 'Shroud of Turin' and its actually being the imprint of Jacques DeMolay

On another note, the amount of time, energy, research, writing, and not to mention psychic energy that goes into the endless stream of bullshit xianity is incredible. Wasted centuries.
Now, imagine where humanity would be if everyone applied the same amount of energy to civilization and spiritual advacement.
