Anonymous Coward User ID: 27211004 Canada 12/19/2012 05:21 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Question is... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30240531 Why did they keep them under wraps? Access to them was severly restricted. How much has been deleted or altered? I don't trust 'em Exactly! Why didn't they release these publicly sooner? You KNOW they have manipulated them. I'd bet Ben Bernanke's pension on it! LOL. Yeah, my first thought too. Any secret "good stuff" is likely long gone and missing. Get a life weirdos... Most of the scrolls are in very very bad shape and are under conservation work Nonetheless other important ones like Isaiah have been on display in the Israeli museum for a long time Fuck off zionist scum. |

Trust the Vatican(can't type that one without actually laughing)? Trust a(any) Government funded Research Group? Dude, if you have to ask, then you most likely question everything; your countries historical documents, what your kids are taught in school, the history of mankind, every non-fictional book ever written,even the 'stories' passed down from your own family...and every witness in a trial. Hello! You will never know when you are being lied to; there comes a point where you will have to just trust that sometimes people aren't lying or you'd simply exist with your own thoughts in your head, which btw, came from a bunch of writings, articles, books and television which can ALL LIE TO YOU!!! So, everything you think you know could be a lie. Ever think about that? And then who will you trust? |

So, everything you think you know could be a lie. Ever think about that? And then who will you trust? Krsna has left us Bhagavad-gita, spoken by Himself exclusively. As for truth? It is in the tasting(by practice) You have a problem with questioning authority? Or mans rendition of history? Yes all 99.99% lairs. Search your own heart by honest inquiry, the truth of existence is there. Mans truth is relative and for the most part inconsequential to what one man would do to another. On the other hand if your a Ted Bundy type, you will just be told to kill. Lord Visnu in the heart will tell the thief to steel from this or that man. He will tell the honest man to be careful and make security arrangements as necessary. Man proposes, God disposes. Karma will be a determining factor. In this life if you are the victim, then in your last life you were the perpetrator. Only the perpetrator can decide pro-action in this life, the victim is powerless to address this past bad karma in his current embodiment. If the perpetrator eradicates irreligious action within his own heart, then the victim is set free in the next life not to be the perpetrator. The karmic merry-go-round stops. God gives as we impose free will. Try asking the right questions. |

I know what you mean, I once saw an official US Gov copy of the US Constitution as published in 1867, can't remember in which State, but it has a very very different 13th Amendment published in it from what we now find. |
