This video is a clip from the History Channel, where they report on the face that is imprinted onto the Shroud of Turin (rumored to be the burial cloth of Jesus Christ). Ho-hum.

Now that we know what Jesus looked like, what next? Do we have to discard all of the paintings that don't look like this as heretical?
Geez. What does the priest say? From an historical point of view IF this is the face of Jesus it's fascinating? I find the truth about the thriving Jesus relics industry in the middle ages infinitely more interesting and viable. Of course, I haven't seen the documentary, but The History Channel hasn't ever bowled me over with it's scholarship.
One other note, "Father" Morris states that Christianity is different from any other religion because it's about a person, Jesus of Nazareth. So Islam isn't about Muhammad and Buddhism isn't about Buddha. Nice try, father.
