A good point you put forward PaulB. Personally I think that the shroud is a manufact from the Crusader times, when very many items were brought to Europe by western Europeans and offered around as relics with holy powers. However, please don't feel this as a statement against Christian Faith. The Gospel is the only testimony we have on Jesus, together with the other scripts of the New Testament, all translated from original Greek into many languages. Also there are the prophetic testimonies to Jesus in the Old Testament.
But I do agree with you that it is a mystery how anyone maneged to get that picture as they did! But, somehow, the statement that the woven material was a replacement of the original strands, if accepted, would mean that morally the catholic church should put another strand of the shroud up for examinations.
As stated by other participants here concerning their faith, the same applies also to me: it wouldn't affect my faith in Jesus, which is secure.
