Dead Sea Scrolls - New View of Authors ?

The Times: Reports on a new theory about the authors of the Dead Sea Scrolls. The Theory has caused arguments in historical circles. I sometimes think these debates while interesting miss the point, its the message and what it tells us about the past and the present and the future. It does not matter if Jesus Christ was the Son of God, its his message that we should learn, christian values of charity, helping those that cant help themselves, forgiveness, being morale. Jesus was the Son of God, but its only the view of this writer, its the message that is important folks. Read of the Day.

The Choice for Iran - Brown

BBC News: Reports on a Speech given by the UK PM Gordon Brown, in the speech the PM stated that Iran has a choice, move away from its idea of becoming a armed nuclear power and allow the West to help Iran become a civil nuclear power. If Iran does not take up the offer it will face more Western sanctions. I think the West has its blinkers on, this route has been tried for years and years, and what has it got the West, Iran is closer to becoming a nuclear power. The USA and UK politicians do recall those of the 1930s who thought they could appease Hitler. At the end of the day Israel will have to act, because the USA and UK don't have the backbone. The reaction from Iran will wake up the West, Iraq might be quite now but after an attack by Israel, Iran will attack the USA in Iraq. Thus the Obama Administration will find that Iraq and Afghanistan becomes their WARS.
