Man, are you leaving yourself wide open to contradiction!  I can't
believe we are on the
same page.

If you would, back up to my first post in this Thread and click on More
Good News.
Study Jody Magness on Essenes at Qumran.

There's your archaeology from a qualified scholar.  Either Magness or
Thiering.

If you disagree, say why.  In other words, what arguments specifically
are
non-sequitor?

Pin yourself down and we'll get into it.

Understand that Dr. Thiering and I propose that Jesus Christ was once
an Essene who
later split from them.  This matter is shown by certain textual
analysis but is not
archaeology per se.  If interested, ask me.
