O cientista Bill Lauto é um cientista ambiental e consultor de energia que acompanha e estuda o Sudário de Turim desde que tinha 14 anos.

Tudo começou quando ele encontrou uma foto do artefato na internet e “não podia acreditar que estava vendo uma fotografia do próprio Jesus”.

Hoje, com diploma em Ciência e Fé no Meio Ambiente e Energia e Mestrado em Estudos do Sudário, Bill é um dos membros especialistas na exibição sobre o Santo Sudário no 10° Congresso Eucarístico Nacional, que acontece esta semana em Indianapolis, nos Estados Unidos.
​
Ao lado de uma réplica idêntica do Sudário, ele esteve na exibição “falando e educando as pessoas sobre todos os fatos e mais de 100 anos de estudos científicos que foram feitos sobre o Sudário”.

E acrescenta que até hoje não se pode explicar como a imagem se formou e que “todos que a vêem são impactados de uma forma ou de outra”.
Bill cresceu no Brooklyn, NY, frequentando uma escola católica, até que sua família se mudou para Long Island e ele foi para uma escola pública, e foi aí onde começou a questionar a fé.

“Eu tinha 14 anos e estava entrando no campo da ciência e questionando a possibilidade de que Deus não existisse. Procurei Jesus Cristo na Enciclopédia Britânica, vi aquela fotografia e a partir daí tudo começou para mim”.Ele atesta que estudar sobre o Sudário o fez ter fé como nunca, pois é também baseada na razão. “Agora, quando as pessoas vêm até mim e dizem ‘Bill, você é um cientista, você não acredita nessa coisa de Deus…’ eu digo: ‘Você está certo, eu não acredito, eu sei”.
“E então tiro da minha carteira a foto que mostra os dados tridimensionais de Jesus no Sudário de Turim e mostro para eles e enquanto eles ficam boquiabertos, eu digo que se você pudesse explicar essa imagem, então talvez possa falar com você sobre a possibilidade de Deus não existir”.
E ressalta: 
“Mas todos os estudos científicos realizados há mais de 100 anos mostram que o Sudário tem 2 mil anos e a informação sobre ele é esmagadora. A evidência é esmagadora e você chega à conclusão de que sim, este foi o manto que envolveu Jesus Cristo, o filho de Deus”.

It all started when he found a photo of the artifact on the internet and “could not imagine how we were looking at a photograph of Jesus himself.”

Bill Lauto is an environmental scientist and energy consultant who has been following and studying the Shroud of Turin since he was 14.
It all started when he found a photo of the artifact on the internet and “could not imagine how we were looking at a photograph of Jesus himself.”

Nowadays, with a degree in science and faith in environment and energy and a Master’s in Shroud studies, Bill is one of the expert members of the Shroud of Turin Exhibit at the 10th National Eucharist Congress occurring in Indianapolis.

Alongside an identical replica of the Shroud on display, he is “talking and educating people on all the facts and over 100 years of scientific study that’s been done on the Shroud.”
He adds that “the image itself still cannot be explained on how it was formed and everybody that looks at it is affected one way or another.”

Bill grew up in Brooklyn, N.Y., attending a Catholic school, until his family moved to Long Island and he went to public school, where he began to question his faith.

“So I was a 14-year-old going into the field of science and questioning the possibility that there was no such thing as a God. I looked up Jesus Christ in the Encyclopedia Britannica, saw that photograph, and from there, it all started for me”.

He attests that studying the Shroud gave him faith like never before, as it is also based on reason.
“Now when people come up to me and say ‘Bill you’re a scientist, you don’t believe in all that God stuff….’ I say, ‘You’re right, I don’t believe, I know."

“And then I take the picture out of my wallet, which shows the three-dimensional data of Jesus from the Shroud of Turin, and show it to them and as their mouths drop open, I say, ‘If you could explain away this image, then maybe I’ll talk to you about the possibility of there being no such thing as God.'”

He then ensures:
“But all the scientific studies for over 100 years show the Shroud is 2,000 years old and the information on it is overwhelming. The evidence is overwhelming and you come to the conclusion that yes, this was and is the burial court of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

In the article by D. Hunter Reardon of The Catholic Virginian, dated August 15, 2024, Bill Lauto spoke about the spear wound, fingerprints found in the blood on the feet, and other remarkable aspects seen on the Shroud of Turin. Below is an excerpt from the article.

Bill Lauto, an environmental scientist... gave a talk at the exhibit. He discussed other remarkable aspects of the shroud, including the bodily fluid found around the spear wound, and the fingerprints found on the feet. Using the image on the shroud, Lauto painted a picture of the crucifixion.

“With the weight [of the crossbeam] on his back, falling straight to the ground three times, he probably developed a tear in his aorta,” said Lauto. “The wounds on the shoulder all match carrying that beam.”
​
“From the wound in his side, we can say it was made with a Roman short spear, not the long one,” said Lauto. “Using a short spear tells us the cross was no more than 6 feet tall, which means he was naked, on the cross, in front of everybody.”

What person in the middle ages would think to make a forgery showing fingerprints, that need magnification to see them, on the soles of Jesus’ feet? Fingerprints visible under magnification were incorporated into the world of science in 1870 when Alphonse Bertillon, a French anthropologist, presented his work.
 
Where were the cries for peace and good will to humankind when the results from new Carbon dating tests came back stating the Shroud was 2,000 years old? Perhaps there was only a whisper because there was no popular media coverage of the test done in March of 2013 at the University of Padua in northern Italy. They used the same fibers from the 1988 Carbon dating tests and the results dispute the 1988 findings. The new examination dates the shroud to between 300 BC and 400 AD, which would put it in the era of Christ. Reasons for the different results were discovered because only linen fibers were used in the test. The cotton fibers that were woven into the same sample material were not used. The entire Shroud is made of Linen and cotton was used in this sample section because it was a repaired patch attached in the time frame presented by the original carbon dating test. The results in 1988 were again betraying science. Only one sample area was used, when 7 different samples should have been taken.
 
To this day, failed science continues as shown with virtually no media coverage of the new dating test done with X-Rays (called WAXs) in 2022. Results show the Shroud is 2,000 years old.
 
The facts continue to prove the Shroud of Turin is Jesus’ burial cloth and all theories to the opposite have been proven false. On and on all proof says yes, while none has been substantiated to prove against. Yet, humankind is still in the grip of not calling these cloths what they truly are. Thus, becoming the articles never written, the stories never read, the movies never made, the hands that never shook, the arms that never hugged, the peace never found, the joy never explored, the hope never shared, the faith forgotten, the truth stifled, and total love ignored.

I received the flyer on the left through email. The conference room was at capacity and additional chairs were brought in to meet the demand. Someone formerly from the media was pushing hard to film the event. A Deacon and various church groups from several different parishes were in the audience.

Bill Lauto was introduced and proceeded to passionately speak about our Lord's burial cloth for just over one hour. You would have heard a pin drop to the floor, if a pin was dropped.

Some people drove 50 miles to attend because Bill Lauto, the editor at BBV Publishing, had life size images of Jesus' Shroud.

​
​I was happy that my historical novel Upper Room The Way, helped to raise funds for the Church with sales of over $500.00. I am proud that not only I, but also my publisher make all proceeds go to those who are in need.

I left, as I arrived, knowing as Bill Lauto knows... This is not about us or my book, it is about the Son of God.

This new show is not afraid to immediately step into the reality of the day. Especially when the character Matthew, stepped into some animal scat.

​This new show will teach Hollywood what the people truly need: Hope, Faith, Love, Belief and to Know.

This new show will teach all the ones that want money and power that we the people only need oxygen, shelter, water, food and loving support.

This show will help, as I hope my historical novels will, for people to realize and know the truth and the way. I hope and trust that God inspired the words in my historical novel, UPPER ROOM, THE WAY: 33AD to 57AD
