Description
The search for a theory to explain the enigma of the Turin Shroud continues. Many people want the shroud to be proof of Christ's mission, but Knight and Lomas argue that it is not. They propose that behind the shroud is a tale of pride, greed, power-lust and suffering.Tags

The Turin Shroud has been a controversial item since it first bobbed up in the late 14th Century. Some people think, for whatever reason, that it was the cloth that Jesus was buried in while many others believe it is a medieval forgery. The authors have their own idea on what the shroud is, which is neither Jesus nor forgery. That idea involves the Knights Templar, Freemasonry and, of course, Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland.
The book could be much worse, I suppose.

A good theory about the shroud, and some neat information on the demise of the Templars. A bit more believable than their first work and a neat read.

Libro de ensayo muy interesante por la intención de apertura de miras hacia el interior de los cimientos de la Iglesia Católica y el cristianismo combinado con la masonería, el judaísmo y la Orden Templaria junto al Rex Deus. Pretende arrojar luz sobre los orígenes de la secta cristiana con su primer mesías y lo equipara a la posible llegada del segundo mesías, Jacques de Molay. Enormemente revelador el análisis científico sobre la Sindone. Esperando las excavaciones de Rosslin, ¡ya!

"Drugi mesija" otkriva da Torinski pokrov, osim što je ikona zvanične crkve, pruža i naučne dokaze o alternativnoj, skrivenoj istoriji zapadne civilizacije i tajnim društvima koja su njom upravljala. Ovaj komad tkanine je poštovan više od sedam vekova zbog toga što nosi otisak razapetog Hrista, ali su rezultati istraživanja 1988. godine pokazali da ta tkanina nije mogla biti starija show more od 1260. godine. Nije falsifikat, ali ne predstavlja lik Isusa Hrista. Odgonetajući zagonetku pokrova, ova knjiga razotkriva mnogo veću misteriju: kako ovaj srednjovekovni artefakt povezuje Isusa i čoveka za kojeg se veruje da je njegov sledbenik. Čuvari ove velike tajne trudili su se da je sakriju i od sveta i od svojih članova, ali nisu uspeli da unište dokaz... skriven u odbačenim ritualima Slobodnog Zidarstva. show less
