I think that we will be very surprised when and if we ever find out. I wouldn't be surprised if it is someone quite famous. Any guesses? My gut feeling is that it is someone who is supposed to be "dead":
JFK jr Tom Clancy (My No 1 choice) John McAfee
Any thoughts?
yes, it's simple to read.
just get your Bible & read the common material between Matthew and Luke, that's all it is. not sure why people are bothered by the idea...
and they wouldn't have needed an 'original written source'
that defeats the purpose...it was 'inspired' and the Q source proves that more than one received the message...it's like a code.
and for those who don't recognize the commonalities, there are plenty of sites that have the list of the verses. the International Q Project has been analyzing the material for a long time.

yeah I'm not sure why SO many people want to 'debunk' the Q-Source...
especially on a Q board??
how many 'coincidences'...remember.
also the Jefferson Bible has similar content to the Q-Source and JFK was a fan of Jefferson.
AND if you've read the Q-drops...JFK is a HUGE part of Q's plan.
so yes, you can explain this to me a hundred times on WHY I'm 'wrong', but that is not what my reply was about...
the question was; who do we think Q is?
AND I think that Q is God/Jesus/Source
so the FACT that there is a 'HYPOTHETICAL' book ABOUT JESUS & NAMED Q, is the perfect sign/symbol for me.
time for bed, so only a couple more comments-
Jefferson himself said in his letter to Benjamin Rush...he WAS a Christian, he explains...
"I then promised you that, one day or other, I would give you my views of it. they are the result of a life of enquiry & reflection, and very different from that Anti-Christian system, imputed to me by those who know nothing of my opinions. to the corruptions of Christianity, I am indeed opposed; but not to the genuine precepts of Jesus himself. I am a Christian, in the only sense in which he wished any one to be; sincerely attached to his doctrines, in preference to all others; ascribing to himself every human2 excellence, & believing he never claimed any other."
Q also said there are good and bad in all organizations...hence if TJ was a freemason, he wasn't evil...
as for JFK; if you really think that poorly of him, not sure if you'll be able to fully understand Q...🤔
