***Why were they preserving those ancient copies of Scripture?***

The exchange was a bit of a 'slide' from UFO's, but justa-hairyape was posing a philosophical problem about whether Jesus was born with full knowledge of all things or did he have to learn it all. IMO that is what the Essenes at Qumran had been preparing for for nearly 200 years: to instruct a Messiah figure. . . . It is a controversial area.

You are right - so many today are incapable of learning from history. As Santiana stated, they are doomed to repeat it.

Job 21:22
Can anyone teach knowledge to God, since He judges those on high?


Romans 11:34
"Who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been His counselor?"
