Carbon 14 Dating of Shroud of Turin flawed.

It has been pointed out to me by sonhouse that the carbon 14 dating of
the Shroud of Turin, believed to be the burial cloth of Christ, has been
determined by scientist to be a mistake. It is reported as the biggest
mistake ever made in carbon 14 dating.

is it important to you?. my faith is not made more or less by garments or other pieces, either genuine or fake. i use the cross as a sign of my christianity, but it is made of metal or wood plastic as well. god/ christ is not there just a focus for our minds.

You still have no problem with the idea there were mistakes made but there is still no proof it was used on Jesus. Now that they think the data was in error and the date is a lot closer to Jesus' time, you now think carbon dating is ok? It looks like the Vatican has screwed up any hope for finding an accurate date for the cloth anyway so it is just back to ...[text shortened]... d to 2000 years old, I am sure you would now think carbon dating to be totally a great science.

I still believe that more work needs to be done to refine the dating
process to make sure it is accurate in all cases. I still don't trust
carbon 14 dating at this time.

You just confirmed my hypothesis. You have no problem say, with LED lighting technology because it probably will never impinge on your religious dogma. Or say, X-ray science, unless it starts to weigh in on the dates of human fossils. Or physics, lets see, unless it starts to support carbon 14 dating. Oh yes, I forgot, it ALREADY supports C14 dating. So now physics is suspect.

Yes, I am interested in announcing the truth of Jesus.

Have you read the book The Shroud of Turin? Or the sequel?

Which book is that? what author? A Chemists perspective on the shroud by Ramond N Rogers? Vindication for the shroud by two non-believers by Andre Cherpollod and Serge Mouraviev? The Blood and the Shroud by Ian Wilson? The Botany of the Shroud by Avinoam Danin? The challenge of the Shroud by Mark Oxley?
The crucifixion of Jesus by Fredrick T Zugibe? A Doct ...[text shortened]... by Walter McCrone?

Not sure which version you are talking about. That was just a short list.

Do you accept science or not, RJHinds? If not, why is this different?

A interesting program about the shroud was on the History channel recently.
