→Shroud of Turin
I was looking for a conservative alternative to Wikipedia, so I thought I would check out this website. As I was looking at the main page, I saw the article title "Shroud of Turin" and was curious what was said about it. Just wondering, was the article written by Catholics? In my reading of the article it seems a propaganda to promote yet another graven image (like the statues of Mary) is presented. I am a Bible-believing New Testament Christian who has been saved through faith alone in my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ but the "shroud" is false idol worship! Stop putting your faith in a piece of cloth and put your faith in the Person of Jesus!

The Bible (as Muhamed pointed out), talks about more than one piece of cloth; one wrapped around the body and one wrapped around the face. Also, please read the account of Lazarus in John 11, paying close attention to verse 44. Jesus was more than likely buried in the same manner as Lazarus. Jesus was also of Jewish descent, not of European, like the face depicts. Needless to say, this is not a good first impression of this website for a newbie like myself, especially since folks are responding in an angry manner when other viewpoints are expressed. Please remember the Second of the Ten Commandments. This is why the Bible is not specific as to what Jesus looks/ed like because it can lead to a violation of the Second commandment. Thank you for reading and may the Lord bless you as you seek the Truth!

:I agree with with you on this issue, and I am an evangelical Protestant who believes that the only way to salvation is by God's grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone. However, CP also has many Roman Catholics who edit, and they obviously also have strong views on this topics. Different articles on Christian-related topics thus have either a Catholic-leaning point of view, while other such articles have an evangelical Protestant point of view. The best option, considering we're united (on this site) around the fact that we're politically conservative, is to try to present both views fairly, which I encourage you to do if you have the time. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 16:03, 28 July 2018 (EDT)
