The Face of Jesus Revealed?

jesusFor what it's worth I thought I should note today, Easter Sunday, that last week, (3/30), the History Channel  did a special called, "The Real Face of Jesus?"   The special  centered on a computer arts re-creation of the face of Jesus Christ, made using the Shroud of Turin as a guide.

The Shroud of Turin is a blood-stained linen cloth that many of the faithful believe was the burial shroud of Jesus Christ, but questions on the shroud's authenticity have been raised for centuries. The team featured on History Channel's documentary state that they have no doubt the Shroud is real.

ABC's "Good Morning America" did a preview of the show. That video is below. The ABC  commentator reminded viewers to "be prepared: The results achieved through the convergence of science and religion doesn't resemble the popularized images of Jesus. It's impossible to know how close the computer-generated images come to reality, but they'll likely be of tremendous interest, both to believers and to the curious."
