4.0 out of 5 stars Will most certainly make you think, August 13, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Resurrected: Tangible Evidence Jesus Rose from the Dead, Shroud's Message Revealed 2000 Years Later. (Paperback)

In spite of reviewer "bill hay's" criticism that this book doesn't live up to the X-Files "stringent" criteria for valid science (what?!), I personally found the book to be well worth the read and credible on all levels. Having worked in the fields of pathology and criminology for several years, I was struck with the integrity of the work presented here. I honestly don't know whether Jesus was raised from the dead. I didn't witness it. But if any pathologist was asked to testify as to the question based on the evidence objectively presented here, I can't see how they could deny it.

Sometimes the conclusions drawn by science are rational. But there are also times when the conclusions, as irrational as they may appear to be, are correct none-the-less. Read it for yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great scholarly work!, June 2, 2000

This review is from: Resurrected: Tangible Evidence Jesus Rose from the Dead, Shroud's Message Revealed 2000 Years Later. (Paperback)

Gary Habermas has once again put forth a great scholarly work which displays the evidence for the resurrection of Jesus Christ. I believe that anyone who is unbiased and reads this work without preconcieved hostilities will certainly find the claims for Christ's divinty to be highly plausible. I highly recommend this book to both Christians and non-Christians alike.

This review is from: Resurrected: Tangible Evidence Jesus Rose from the Dead, Shroud's Message Revealed 2000 Years Later. (Paperback)

This is a great story. The author gives you all the facts so you can really make your own decision about the meaning of the Shroud.

The story is well told & it is hard not to see Dr. Lavoie's passion through the writing. It is actually very inspirational. I felt like I was with Dr. Lavoie step by step on a quest for answers about the Shroud. I gave this book to several friends and they really enjoyed it as well.

Thanks for writing such a great book Dr. Lavoie!
