For centuries, the Shroud of Turin has fascinated believers and skeptics alike. In his thought-provoking presentation at the Shroud of Turin 2025 International Conference & Symposium, researcher Joe Marino takes on some of the most persistent misconceptions surrounding this sacred relic.
Marino, who now manages Shroud.com, continues the legacy of Barry Schwartz, one of the original photographers of the 1978 STURP investigation. Drawing from decades of meticulous study, Marino discusses how misunderstandings—ranging from flawed carbon dating tests to misread biblical references—have clouded public perception of the Shroud.
He revisits the so-called “C-14 controversy,” revealing evidence that the 1988 tests used a contaminated corner, rendering the medieval date inaccurate. Marino also explains why certain biblical omissions, such as the lack of explicit mention of the Shroud’s image, can be attributed to the early Church’s “discipline of the secret.”
From scientific analysis to theological reflection, Marino invites listeners to reconsider what the Shroud reveals about the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Far from being a medieval forgery, the Shroud continues to challenge our understanding of faith, history, and the supernatural.
