This episode explores the conspiracy theory underneath the conspiracy theory regarding the Dead Sea Scrolls. Why they were exclusively under the control of some seven scholars on the pay of JD Rockefeller Jr. and why almost 50 years would pass until the public was allowed to check John Allegros facts.
Does the evidence show that there was a conspiracy to withhold what the scrolls would tell us to protect the ideals of christianity?, or, is it more probable, that the events of the past to have been a deliberate attempt by Rockefeller to capitalize on the half a century monopoly of information by telling us the scrolls discredit christianity, a notion, that we have only now (after the scroll monopoly was broken) totally dis proven. what would the agenda be? what makes sense when all things are considered?
