Hat tip to Joe Marino: From the Zombie Popcorn guys, This Non-Religious Life Episode 46: Brass Tacks… Or Are They Nails? If you are going to watch, fast forward to 1:37. See how long you can last after that:
Any loyal fans will no doubt remember our first foray into the shroud mystery. Since then we have touched on the subject a few more times. We even issued an invitation, and later a challenge, to Dan Porter to discuss the shroud with us on the air after his attempt at a scathing rebuttal of our first examination. And while we are on the subject of challenges, a new challenge has been issued for Richard Dawkins, of all people, to disprove the shroud for £20,000. But the shroud is also once again in the news. This time for a new book entertaining the idea that the shroud is authentic and that it, not the risen Jesus, is responsible for the spread of Christianity and the faith of the initial converts. As you will see, we tear this assumption apart so stay tuned as well as we can with the info we have.
Scathing rebuttal? That’s choice. Read An invitation to discuss the Shroud of Turin. You’ve got to be kidding.
The Shroud discussion proper starts at 34:12.
Hey Joe! Does this discussion sound like a SNL skit to you, it sure seems so to me. ;-)
