Controversial Documents

Q documents
The Q document or Q is a postulated lost textual source for the biblical Gospel of Matthew and Gospel of Luke. Q stands for German Quelle, meaning "Source". It is a theoretical collection of Jesus' sayings, written in Greek. Although many scholars believe that "Q" was a real document, no actual document or fragment has been found. The 19th-century New Testament scholars say that Matthew and Luke share many material which are not found in their generally believed common source, the Gospel of Mark. It must be from a second common source and its termed the Q document. This hypothetical lost text — also called the Q Gospel, the Sayings Gospel Q, the Secret of Q, the Synoptic Sayings Source, the Q Manuscript, and The Logia — seems most likely to have comprised a collection of Jesus' sayings. This gospel was widely circulated within the early Christian movement but did not make it into the Christian Scriptures. All regard the four gospels of the Bible as God's word -- inerrant, infallible, and totally sufficient for the needs of Christians. Some say even if Q existed, it can be of little importance today.

Killian Documents
The Killian documents controversy, also referred to as Memogate, Rathergate or Rathergate, involved six documents critical of President George W. Bush's service in the Air National Guard in 1972-1973. The provider of the documents, Lt. Col. Bill Burkett, claims to have burned the originals after faxing copies to CBS News. The George W. Bush military service controversy was an issue in the 2000 presidential campaign and in the 2004 presidential campaign. The controversy centered on questions of how George W. Bush came to be a member of the Texas Air National Guard, why he lost his flight status, and whether he fulfilled the requirements of his military service contract during the Vietnam War.

Humanist Manifesto
It talks of a new religion. It refers to humanism as a religious movement meant to transcend and replace previous deity-based systems. It was written in 1933 primarily by Raymond Bragg and published with 34 signers. Of the 65 people who were asked to sign, only 34 accepted. About half (15) were Unitarians. The document outlines fifteen affirmations on cosmology, biological and cultural evolution, human nature, epistemology, ethics, religion, self-fulfillment, and the quest for freedom and social justice. This later proved to be the most controversial, even among humanists, in its opposition to "acquisitive and profit-motivated society".

Majestic 12 Documents
Majestic 12 (also known as Majic 12, Majestic Trust, M12, MJ 12, MJ XII or Majority 12) is the code name of a secret committee of scientists, military leaders, and government officials, supposedly formed in 1947 by an executive order of U.S. President Harry S. Truman. The purpose of the committee was to investigate UFO activity in the aftermath of the Roswell incident - the purported crash of an alien spaceship near Roswell, New Mexico, in July 1947. This alleged committee is an important part of the UFO conspiracy theory of an ongoing government cover up of UFO information.All the alleged original members of MJ-12 were notable for their military, government, and/or scientific achievements, and all were deceased when the documents first surfaced (the last to die was Jerome Hunsaker, only a few months before the MJ-12 papers first appeared).The original composition was six civilians (mostly scientists), and six high-ranking military officers, two from each major military service. Three (Souers, Vandenberg, and Hillenkoetter) had been the first three heads of central intelligence.
