The Jesus Conspiracy (Book) proposes that the Vatican interfered with the 1988 Radiocarbon 14 dating of the Shroud of Turin to show a medieval date for its origin. The authors propose that the shroud is authentic as the burial cloth of Jesus, but that evidence including blood tracks shows that Jesus was alive following his crucifixion. They argue that the Mandylion or Image of Edessa, known from the sixth century, was the Shroud, but folded to only show the face of Jesus. Because Jesus surviving the cross would contradict the teaching of the Resurrection, the central belief in Christianity, the authors allege that the Vatican used a piece from a 13th century cloth with a similar herringbone weave to the Shroud of Turin as a substitute in the carbon dating.

The Vatican has always been I guess you can say in envy of Christians. So It does not suprise me that they would try something like this. The vatican is the biggest hoax I have ever heard of.

I definitely agree to the above post. We should be careful with what we want and consider the feelings of each other.
