Let me rephrase since you seemed to have missed my point. If your interpretation is wrong, as you've admitted it is, why should anyone listen to you?
Let Me rephrase since you seemed to miss the point I was making. No one is completely right in their religious efforts, including me.
The bible tells us this in rom 3:
9 What then? Are we better than they? Not at all. For we have previously charged both Jews and Greeks that they are all under sin.
10 As it is written:
“There is none righteous, no, not one;
11 There is none who understands;
There is none who seeks after God.
12 They have all turned aside;
They have together become unprofitable;
There is none who does good, no, not one.”[b]
13 “Their throat is an open tomb;
With their tongues they have practiced deceit”; [c]
“The poison of asps is under their lips”; [d]
14 “Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”[e]
15 “Their feet are swift to shed blood;
16 Destruction and misery are in their ways;
17 And the way of peace they have not known.”[f]
18 “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”[g]
19 Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. 20 Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
Not to rephrase but to repeat: No one should follow what I have to say unless they want a relatively quick biblically based understanding of God.

You know there were "other" writings found with the scrolls that backed the OT of the bible. Maybe your source stopped his assessment there at these writings, and did not get into the rest of the scrolls found at Qumran.
