[Previous: June 2020] [Next: August & September 2020]

This is the July 2020 issue of my Shroud of Turin News. As in June, there were no news articles about the Shroud in July worth mentioning. So in their place I will again list under news, an old Shroud-related article. This time it is a 2009 anti-Shroud article by Australian science populariser and evident atheist/agnostic (he was Australian Skeptics' 2006 "Australian Skeptic Of The Year"), Dr Karl Kruszelnicki.


News:
"Evidence snubbed by famous shroud faithful," Dr Karl's Great Moments In Science, ABC (Australia), Karl S. Kruszelnicki, 26 August 2009.

Because of its growing length, I have decided to move my response to this article to a separate next post, "My reply to Dr Karl Kruszelnicki's, `Evidence snubbed by famous shroud faithful,' ABC Australia, 26 August 2009."
