Did Pope Francis Perform An Exorcism?

At the same time,some cruel practices in the name of Exorcism has to be avoided y following the rituals correctly.

"Pope Francis approached the children with disabilities who attended the Mass. He put both his hands on top of the head of one of the children. According to a journalist of TV2000, a channel owned by the Italian Episcopal Conference, this gesture represents an act of exorcism. The network, who has a weekly programme called “Vade Retro,” questioned a few exorcists who confirmed his interpretation.

The images in the video show Pope Francis having a brief conversation with the priest who is standing behind the child, after which his expression changes and his hands cover the child’s head.

Man In Shroud of Turin Had Leprosy DNA Wrong

I posted in 2009 a blog that the man who was wrapped in the Shroud of Turin was found to be suffering from Leprosy and on this ground was dismissed as one not belonging to Jesus Christ.

Now there is another controversy raging on this subject.

History.

1.A cloth with Bloodstains and body image was found and it was belived to be the cloth that was used to wrap the body of Jesus christ before he was resurrected.

Carbon Dating of The Shroud of Turin
2.It was Carbon Dated by three scientists ,independent of each other.

3.It was proved to belong to belong to the 13th century.

4.It was later analysed for DNA and found that it was used to wrap the body of a man afflicted with leprosy.

The present controversy is,

1.The Shroud of Turin, historically speaking surfaced in the 13th century AD.

Earlier it was in Byzantine Empire.

It was called the Edessa Cloth and was in Constantinople for three hundred years, which then puts it date around 100 AD.

Now ,it the Shroud was forged, the Forger had to use advanced technologies not known to Man then, either in the 13th century or in the 10th Century.

To explain, the image was found to be impressions on the Cloth and did not contain any brush strokes.

If it is a Forgery the forger would have had to have the Blood stains first and draw the image later;this is not possible without advanced technology which was not available till the later part of the 19th century.

2.The depiction of Crucifixion in the 13th century shows Crucifixion as having been done with the palms being nailed, while the fact is that the wrists were nailed.

Crucifying by the palm would not have supported the body weight.

So, this is anachronism if the Shroud had been prepared in the 13th century.

Crucifixion by Wrist
3.Carbon dating could have been incorrect because of the Bacteria that grow on the Cloth, which might affect the Date.
