I have photocopies of all the original Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic texts along with several Torah Scrolls and a hand transcribed copy of the Great Isaiah Scroll in my basement in a hermetically sealed and environmentally controlled room, which I had constructed at great expense.

Very good. And the scrolls are of lambskin too, right? :)
One of the problems with claims to the original is that we don't have any of the originals, and we have no idea of the number of the copies that resulted in the copies that we do have. We do have a number of different copies of the same books, or allusions or fragments of them, which leads us to the understanding that there were possibly hundreds of different copies of hundreds of different books out there that the Church had to decide on. No wonder it took them a couple of hundred years. Even with the Holy Spirit guiding them.
No FAYur! I want one TOO!
