By correcting me, you were assuming I was wrong and have no case to support my claims.
If you still haven't read my longform response, then you don't know I shot your conspiracy theory to shit. What you're talking about is a collection of roughly 70 "new" fragments that flooded the antiquities market after 2002. Those were fakes and those were the ones that were tested. The scrolls found between 1947-1956 are widely acknowledged as legitimate.
There's nuance here you're ignorant of. You are the one making loads of assumptions.
You can't understand any of these religious traditions without the context of the others. You're a Christian? Cool. Me too. I'm a perennialist. Christianity is really perennialism.

Me too. We have a lot in common. There's a really good book that I recently read, which I'm sure you've either read or will get to soon, called "the perennial philosophy" by Aldous Huxley. There was someone I saw criticizing the book here on nostr, but he addressed all those criticisms - the thing is, its towards the end of the book, which I find delicious, since it seems to presuppose that the overly religious types will only make judgements and never read it. I really had to fight the urge to screenshot that page and correct that guy - its the hubris that makes them unworthy of the knowledge in the first place, so it's not my place to help them there. Anyways. Tangent. Are we good again? I wasn't attacking you.
