This site is referring to the scrolls found in Naj Hammadi in Egypt. These are scrolls that appear to have been written by followers of Jesus years after his death. A much better book to read is The Gnostic Gospels by Elaine Pagels. That may even be where the author on your website got his information. If you are interested, you will probably enjoy the book.
It is not necessarily history that is being referred to as much as the books that were intentionally eliminated from the Bible and deemed heresy by the Byzentine Council - the group that decided what was and wasn't to be in the Bible. Basically, their intent was to create a Patriarchy (male led) church. Anything that had to do with Mary Magdalene as anything but a whore was removed by them. Both websites below are very good.
It is believed that Mary Magdalene was the wife of Jesus. Before everyone goes ballistic, the Bible says Jesus never sinned. If he married her, then he didn't sin, now did he? Mary was not a prostitute as many churches would have you believe. The reason Jesus came to her defense is that she was seeing a man who turned out to be married (she didn't know - what a shock, he lied). The man accused her of being a whore. She did not sleep with him but was accused of it and the people were going to stone her to death. Jesus, who knew her heart and could discern the truth, defended her and later fell in love with her. He later married her. Even the Bible says he loved her. She was, in fact, the disciple he loved. The church was to be built on her but Constantine could have none of that since his goal was to ensure male dominance. He declared any writings of that event as heresy and those who tried to further the information as heretics. Mary was forced into hiding and the daughter she bore was hidden and protected.
You can read the actual interpretations in the Gnostic Bible. By the way, a gnostic is a seeker of knowledge, not an agnostic which is the opposite.

i think of there's a possibility of people no longer seeing issues particularly techniques with the aid of way they have been conditioned to think of relating to the universe, yet I additionally think of that it somewhat is dwindled through peer overview. distinctive societies and cultures see issues in any different case, so it somewhat is significant that each and every person cultures contribute to medical getting to understand, and as a result we are able to get a completely rounded view of ways issues artwork. i think of there's a bent for issues to get oversimplified and/or sensationalised between booklet in medical journals and booklet through the media, this is a bad element because it misleads human beings. As for individuals no longer wishing to alter classic theories, i think of it somewhat is like something - some human beings want to maintain issues the way they are, others are keen to settle for exchange. the communicate is as significant with the aid of fact the respond, with the aid of fact as long as there are various voices, there are various recommendations being reported. technological awareness is all approximately concensus, and there is no clarification why scientists ought to collaborate to lie to the international. distinctly considering the fact that somebody who's in a position to upstage everybody else with the reality could make a real call for themselves, and it somewhat is in everybody's ultimate pursuits for scientists to be genuine - scientists blanketed.

And maybe some one is snowing you with this nonsensical site. Do not believe everything you see on the Internet.

somethings we don't need to know. Maybe I'm naive, but if the earth was going to hit the sun in a few days, would I realy need to know that?

I am quite sure that you are right. Some times scientists in their wisdom, decide it is better not to `up-set the apple cart`.
