    Relics, eh? I think it was Mark Twain who observed that there were enuf fragments of the “true cross” available to reconstruct Noah’s Ark.

    Actually, since those images are not stains, but more like torched fibers, they probably wouldn’t come out. The blood might, though.

    If Christ saw what happened to his shroud he’d be Turin his grave.

    This reminds me of the rabbi who was travelling and brought his tallit to a cleaners and got it back with a bill for $300. “Three hundred dollars? My usual cleaner charges two bucks!” “Maybe, but do you know how long it took to get those little knots out?”

    (sorry for the “inside” joke. Look for a picture and you’ll get it.)

    “This is the cross Jesus was crucified on. Of course it’s had ten new uprights and fifteen new crossbars since then…..”

    So call it the “Tablecloth of Turin”. Maybe the one used at the last brunch.

    No loss, it’s just the shroud for some northern European guy, possibly a member of one of the Crusades.

    And they recycled those old scrolls from the dead sea.

    No problem. Just have Jesus come back and use the shroud again.
