As a child, when I wasn't a practicing Catholic or even much of a Christian, the Shroud of Turin always, always drew me in. I was a public school student all the way, but when we were asked to write research papers, I always wrote about the Shroud of Turin. I honestly didn't even think that I was doing some explicitly Christian. It's weird to look back on.

All that to say, I have been collecting details about the Shroud of Turin my whole life. It was my original research topic, dating back to 3rd grade or so. These are the highlights from my "Shroud Diary" ...

And speaking of "dating", a fascinating new study on the dating of the Shroud of Turin was just released!

I remember being so bummed out years ago when they first said that it was a fake and then how thrilled I was when it was discovered that the “fake” fabric was the part they repaired from the fire. Actually, I just learned there have been three fires, the last as recently as 1997, possibly arson.
