Sure...but remember that what we think we prove factual today my end up looking like a belief that the world is flat tomorrow.
Their mention of the messiah is in ways more decriptive of John the Baptist than Jesus of Nazareth. But they do not mention him by name either. Radicarbon dating shows the scrolls to range from roughly 200 BC to 100 AD. So some predate Jesus and others post-date him. None mention him
Excellent. You are growing wise, Grasshoppa. Belief in a thing, in time, is mastered by knowledge of a thing. And knowledge itself continues to evolve and ever becomes broader and deeper.
As humans we crave logic, we want to "know" it. You know like wanting to know: (1) what existed before there was nothing; (2) where does our universe end; (3) if there is an end to the universe, what's on the other side, etc. However, God does not subscribe to human logic, He has His own plan and plays only by His set of rules. There is a limit to human logic, there is no limit to God. Thats my belief.
if i remember correctly, some think they mention james, but by some descriptive name---"the righteous" maybe.
Here is the His and He stuff again. Stop giving God human qualities that only confuses your so called logic. The best part of logic is #1, otherwise known as 1st cause theory. Which is so funny to even thing about. Something has to create something, but wait there is a first and nothing before that.. Uhhh Duhhh you just dismantled your whole argument.. lol
Perhaps god isn't something that starts and stops as humans conceptualize it. I have heard more than once that there is no such thing as time, but we, as mortal humans, are bound and accustomed to it.
