Just earlier this week, I've been made aware of the Nazareth Inscription: http://www.biblearchaeology.org/post/2009/07/22/The-Nazareth-Inscription-Proof-of-the-Resurrection-of-Christ.aspx#ArticleD.I.D.A.C.T.I.C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09805362977169476081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-3605664683926697082013-03-01T19:20:39.136-05:002013-03-01T19:20:39.136-05:00Richard,

His view doesn't seem to have gained much of a following. From what I've read, he's only attempted to address some aspects of the Shroud while not addressing others.<br /><br />Any theory attempting to explain the Shroud as a whole has to address a large number of characteristics. Finding some sort of process to produce an image that's vaguely similar isn't enough. For example, you have to explain the advanced historical and medical knowledge reflected in the Shroud and its traits that would be counterproductive for a forger (e.g., the inability to see so many of the details with the naked eye; using a close image of Jesus naked, without any covering, on his back side). Note that something like advanced historical knowledge or advanced medical knowledge is distinct from advanced image-making knowledge. Even if somebody were to propose some primitive medieval form of photography to explain the image-making aspects of the Shroud, for example, that theory wouldn't explain other Shroud characteristics. (And the medieval photography theories proposed so far have failed to even explain the image-making dimension of the Shroud.)Jason Engwerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17031011335190895123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-61581237843588651392013-03-01T09:58:08.980-05:002013-03-01T09:58:08.980-05:00Jason,

I did read Nate Wilson's piece a few years ago and it made sense. I haven't seen how his work has been received by those in the community who study the Shroud in detail. Wilson's website is here:http://www.shadowshroud.com/<br /><br />What do think of Wilson's experiment? Has he been responded to by others you are aware of?<br /><br />Thanks.Richard Klaushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04355169960122137791noreply@blogger.com
