In this interview, Jeremiah Johnston discusses the Shroud of Turin, presenting it as a significant artifact related to the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. He details the cloth's dimensions, material, and unique image, arguing that it corresponds with historical accounts of Jesus's crucifixion. Johnston addresses scientific testing, including blood analysis and pollen studies, to support the shroud's authenticity and age, while also tackling the controversy surrounding carbon dating results. He contends that the image on the shroud could not have been created by human means and highlights the suppression of scientific data related to the shroud. The conversation also touches on the historical context of crucifixion, Jewish burial traditions, and other archaeological finds, including the Dead Sea Scrolls, while questioning why the Catholic Church has not embraced the Shroud.
