Gospel of Judas

Post by Mathezar »

Has anyone seen the recent news articles about the Gospel of Judas?

I was just wondering if anyone of you had any thoughts about this new story.

My take is that it is really not news at all. All it proves is that some individuals in early church history didn't believe in all of the tenets of the gospels.

What is really funny is how this is being reported. It seems that the news articles I read are using this to call into question the truths of the Bible.

Check out the above article on this board that Rich just put up. I actually have some background in this area and Rich is dead on the money here. Excellent treatment of the subject.
