Have we outgrown the need for new scripture and are references to old scripture all we need now that modern life has developed so many specialists?

Historically, religion and its scripture was the conscience of society, and we still need a moral conscience, but does it need to be expressed in scripture?

Are better off relying upon the authenticity and authority of ancient scripture, while relying upon new professionals, the doctors, physicians, therapists and philosophers to guide us specifically with religion guiding us generally?
