At The Shroud of Turin 2025 International Conference & Symposium, historian Tristan Casabianca presented a powerful challenge to both believers and skeptics: What makes research on the Shroud credible?

In his presentation, “The Shroud of Turin in the Quest for Credible Research and Warranted Conclusions,” Casabianca explored how the Shroud should be studied — not through bias or blind faith, but through disciplined scholarship. Drawing on his academic background, he examined radiocarbon dating results, the evolution of Shroud research, and the importance of publishing findings in reputable, peer-reviewed journals.

Casabianca argues that credible Shroud research must be multidisciplinary — combining history, chemistry, physics, archaeology, and theology. He introduces frameworks such as the “minimal facts” and “Bayesian probability” approaches to assess the Shroud’s authenticity objectively.

The conclusion? When analyzed through credible, transparent academic methods, the evidence leans strongly toward the authenticity of the Shroud of Turin — the possible burial cloth of Jesus Christ.

This message resonates deeply with anyone seeking both faith and reason in the modern world.
