The writing goes on...

There are countless forgeries and hoaxes claiming to be The Real Bible (instead of the one we normally use, which -- according to the hoaxers -- has been altered and censored by the Popes or the priests).

Several groups of people have a vested interest in forgeries. Cult weirdos who seek "evidence" for their ideas. Publishers who are out to make money. Exhibitionists who want to become famous by creating a sensation.

These things follow a pattern: A hoax is published and receives a lot of media attention, not because it has any credibility but because the claims are sensational. After a time it is refuted by scholars and disproved by science. Years later, the same hoax is published again -- sometimes just as a reprint, more often in a subtly altered form. The same sensation reappears in the media, because the refutation has been forgotten. And so it goes on.

This site is intended as a reference for those who have found mysterious or sensational claims concerning "the Real bible" or manuscript finds with amazing new information. I'm sure you will find most of the answers here. If not, please drop me a line and I'll expand the material.
