Good grief! Please don't tell me another venerable and descriptive figure of speech has fallen victim to PC!

My, I hit a sore spot. I say you were blowing smoke. Other than the C-14 issue what you brought up was irrelevant junk. If you really know the material you would be making criticisms tailored to fit the case of the shroud. You didn't. The 'humanist net'... if you start with the supposition that the evidence can't lead anywhere, you always end up with that result. Works every time. Here's a sample of your champion over at the humanist: Although I certainly did believe--and said as much--that Max Frei himself spiked his slides with Palestinian, Turkish, French, and Italian pollen, and plainly stated that Frei falsely claimed to have found dozens8 of endemic species of pollen on his Shroud tape samples, thereby perpetrating a fraud, I must obviously leave open the possibility--as preposterous as it may be--that someone else did the dirty deed and Frei innocently found the pollens and was duped. But I can't think of anyone else who might have wanted to deceive him, or would have the means to do so.
