"What does this example show? That sometimes, even in nature, very special conditions occur which, due to a combination of factors, make what has happened truly unique and unrepeatable. Therefore, wisdom should teach us to be very humble, respectful and prudent when studying natural phenomena, before coming to definitive conclusions that may sometimes be hasty and therefore wrong. Obviously, this is all the more true when it comes to the resurrection of Jesus Christ, a unique event in history which countless people believe. At least caution is warranted out of respect for this faith."

yeah no, this guy is a true believer and wants his science to confirm it.

There's a difference between "believer in the resurrection of Jesus Christ" and "believer that the Shroud of Turin was from the resurrection of Jesus Christ". If he's going to ask for respect for the faith of "believers", I'm not sure that belief in the shroud should be given the same respect as belief in the resurrection of Jesus.
