Magda Hassan Wrote:Barbara Theiring is a local DSS scholar who has written extensively on the interpretation of the DSS. She makes a far better case for real history than does the bible or church.

I believe a lot of her work can still be found on scribd.com. I think she was another maverick as was John Allegro who is becoming more vindicated as more of the scrolls are being published. Sex, drugs and ancient rock n roll! People never change.
I agree with much of Theiring's opinions but anything contrary to the rubbish that has been handed down by the church is kept as quiet as possible. A trillion dollar per year industry doesn't go away overnight but now there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
