Paul,
With all the 'buzz' over the Shroud of Turan, why do you think that India will not allow the tomb, which they say contains Jesus' body, to be opened and investigated?
Hi Stephen, I think your guess is probably as good as mine! I also wonder why the monastery at Hemis will not release images of the documents said to identify the presence of Issa in the community's archive. Perhaps they don't want to cause trouble in a country where religiously motivated violence can be so brutal. Just a thought. Peace, Paul
