The Holy Shroud of Jesus has been studied scientifically for many   years by many competent scientists. Some have devoted their lifetime to the scientific study of the Shroud; and justifiably so. The Church encourages the scientific study of the Holy Shroud.

     But there does come a time when we have to say to ourselves, enough is enough. Either we accept it as genuine or we don't. If we don't, that's fine but if we do we have to now ask ourselves; Why is it here? Why did Jesus leave His image on this cloth? We have to start talking about the individual who's image this is.
