Please explain how come there has never been a major discepancy anytime in the 1000's of years of Jewish history between Torahs throughout the world?

If someone slipped something in:

1. How did it get everywhere else, where the text was not like that (and again, there never has been such a case - scoure the almost 2 volumes of both the Babylonian and Jerusalem Talmud, which quibbles over the smallest legal differences and you won't find a single instance of a major disgression between Torah texts anywhere.

2. How did everyone accept what it said when that's not what it said the day before and when it clearly states that it's referring to their ancestors who came out of Egypt? This was the original point made a few post's back (i.e., neither you nor I would stand for this).
