We believe that the family of Geoffrey de Charney's brother, Jean de Charney, was called in and ordered to care for both men, who were destined to die together seven years later, when both were slowly roasted over charcoal for their relapse into 'heresy'.

My source told me that 'The Shroud of Turin' did not show the image of Christ ... but that of Jacques de Molay (the Knights Templar who was burned at the stake in 1314, by order of Philip IV of France).
If this is so why does the Church still insist that it's a holy relic ?
Christopher Knight has a degree in advertising and graphic design and is the managing director of a marketing and advertising agency. In 1976 he became a Freemason.

The Shroud undisputedly exists in 1349 - a mere 35 years after the death of the Grand Master - owned by Geoffrey de Charny.
An image of a coin appears over the right eye of the Shroud image. This coin, a very rare Pontius Pilate lepton struck in 29 to 32 A.D., was not found until 1977. more
According to these recent tests, which were conducted by scientists at the University of Arizona and Russian scientists in Moscow, the 1988 Carbon-14 dates were some 1200 years in error.
This dates the Shroud back to the first or second century.more
Assuming the material has already been ionized(which is the main principle for carbon dating),then the method of carbon dating will give an incorrect answer to the actual date of origin for the shroudmore

The dates you mention are not correct if we consider the Ionization Resurrects The Shroud of Turin

Even if you reject the dating, what is with the coin?

I believe it is a case of many hyenas pulling a Lion down... even when science provides answers and dates, it is rejected.

(appologies in advance if this has been asked/answered before) ... this is the first time I've posted at this forum.
