Le Dr John Jackson (il n'a jamais été professeur [ce qui n'enlève rien à la valeur du travail qu'il a accompli], mais chargé de cours) déclarait en 2009 dans une interview publié dans le bulletin on-line de l'Université du Colorado

Il est intéressant de noter, même s'il n'aborde pas la question des taches objet de ce fil, qu'il ne tient rien pour acquis dans la recherche scientifique.
5. Over the years, has your belief ever wavered that the Shroud of Turin was the cloth that covered Jesus in his tomb? What would it take for you to acknowledge the linen is not connected to Christ? Conversely, what would it take to prove beyond a doubt that the image shows Christ?
I am a devout Christian and my faith is very important to me. But I am also a scientist who spends most of my time trying to disprove hypotheses my colleagues and I think up, rather than find things that prove them. The last thing any scientist wants to do is publish something that is refuted.
I think we are looking at the actual burial cloth of Jesus. It's the only hypothesis that makes sense. It is not a work of the hand of man or a creation using some physical technique. But I have to hold up the possibility that something could change that hypothesis. I don't think science is ever going to be able to prove that it is the burial cloth. Science isn't wired that way. You have multiple hypotheses that stand up to competing hypotheses. (The theories) stand up as long as they stand up to testing. If you do this long enough, you end up with only one hypothesis. But how do you know when you've exhausted all possibilities?
Un vrai scientifique qui ne cautionnerait pas l’assertion péremptoire que vous nous avez servie.
