Re: orion-list A Theory of Qumran Theories...



Appropos the comments of Douda and Brooks - Well said, M. Broshi
recently
published a short popular article (1998) in which he writes that one of
the problems of DSS scholars is that "despite 12,000 scholarly
publications, no one will ever admit that they have been wrong."  even
when C-14 dates done by independent labs show otherwise. Perhaps we
should all follow the dictum of O. Wilde (?) that 'absolute truth lasts
but 20 years"  If he didn't say it, I'm sure he would take credit for
it.
