Google digitises Dead Sea Scrolls

From the article...



Why you so worried about translations. You won't read them anyway lol

yes I will. even read the court transcripts for Joan of Arc's court case!

I'm not religious at all, just want to know why they have been kept away from the public for so long and what is so secret about them?? after all if u were religious and found evidence of gods existence wouldn't u want the world to know? I just find it curious that while most religious people r always going on about their faith!, why the hush about the dead sea scrolls??

Maybe because it is not the place or the time?

"Google to bring Dead Sea Scrolls online << Comments and views"

Just a question, what comments and views are we meant to give?

The Dead Sea Scrolls are a collection of 972 documents, including texts from the Hebrew Bible....

Looks like the atheist are offended by my posts and are reporting them. If they so believe that God does NOT exist, why do they feel offended when someone speaks about God?

Because this is not the place for god debates... this is not philosophical debates, this is the news section.

Please read the forum rules !

"Awesome! I love Fairytales!!"
"Once upon a time....".

"In the land of Far Far Away?
or was it the Land of Nod?
I can never remember"

Looking at these statements that obviously speak about the content of the DSS, then what was wrong with my statement?

"Its not a fairy tale. God does exist"


Honestly what are we supposed to be discussing? Its fine to say look at the rules and I will obey them but does it only apply to one set of people? Can those who don't believe in God then just say what they want?

are the Dead Sea Scrolls religious in nature or do they talk about the life and times of the people running around the desert in those days?
Do the Dead Sea Scrolls talk about Jesus?

but any mention of jesus?

what i am trying to say is if the dead sea scrolls mention the life and times of people in the area then it is a geography or history book and not religious at all.
