Bill Maher:
[DVD Extra]
In the late 1940s right around the time the State of Israel was being born Jews here in the Judah Desert made a startling discovery. The Arabs were really mad at them. But there was something else. Here in the Qumran Caves they found what the world has come to know as the Dead Sea Scrolls. Written by an ancient Jewish sect called the Essenes the Dead Sea Scrolls contained fragments from almost every book in the old testament plus prophesies by Jeremiah, Ezekial and Daniel that are not in the Bible and Psalms attributed to King David and Joshua that are not in the Bible. We keep finding Bible Outtakes in the way we find new records by Elvis, John Lennon and Tupac and I know my Christian and Jewish religious friends get their hair screwed in a bunch whenever you call the Bible a Fairy Tale and they have a point because it's actually an anthology of fairy tales a kind of Reader's Digest collection of books written in many languages over thousands of years and then assembled and translated into American just as God planned. The question is: who decided what got into the Bible and what got edited out and only made it into the outtakes and the directors cut and the DVD extras? I'll tell you who. Man. And when I say man I mean specifically people with penises because there's no religion I ever heard of that would let a woman make an important decision like that. The Dead Sea Scrolls are a very alive reminder that religious books are very often as holy and sacred as Harry Potter and by the way if you buried Harry Potter here and dug it up a thousand years later who knows? The Bible was written by men and edited by men and based on some of the nonsense in it, edited pretty badly. It's no wonder that the Dead Sea Scrolls even though they were found over fifty years ago most of them still haven't been published which is a real drag because Yahweh has already burned through his advance.
