the Shroud of Turin is the evidence you seek that proves that His Son was born as a man, existed as a man, lived as a man, was tempted as a man, was tried as a man, was convicted as a man, was crucified as a man, was buried as a man, and resurrected as God Almighty.

How do we know that that is what Jesus even looked like? Couldn't it just be the burial shroud of some randomn dude? The model used in "The Last Supper" was painted more than 1000 years after his supposed death, and is the only insight we have into what jesus MIGHT have looked like, Da Vinci might have just used a model that was photogenic. As Gadren suggested/queried it doesn't attest to jesus' divinity. Even if it weren't a hoax, it it would only prove that Jesus existed, died, and was buried as a man; it doesn't mean he was tempted,convicted,crucified, or resurrected.
Jessie Custer...
...uh - was the da Vinci reference a joke? Because no, it doesn't. For a start, its existence was first recorded in 1357... around a hundred years before Leonardo was even a twinkle in his mother's eye. But then, you knew that, right?

13th century fraud.
Next.
How? According to Wikipedia; "Independent tests in 1988 at the University of Oxford, the University of Arizona, and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology concluded with 95% confidence that the shroud material dated to 12601390 AD."
Even if it's over a thousand years older, it's still just a wrapping for a man who died of crucifixion. Jesus wasn't the only one crucified, was he? Plus, the shroud doesn't show anything at all about birth, life, temptation, trial, conviction or resurrection.
Confused?
