*giggle* Does the mainstream media really expect us to believe that a Gnostic text written over a century or more after the death of Christ is an authentic witness to the life of Judas, Christ, or anyone? *knocking on media's head* Hello, anybody home? Anybody remember the Gnostic heresy and its plethora of spurious documents that we've already known about for ages of ages??? In other words, it would benefit the media to learn a little about the history of the Scriptures and the early church! The only thing being suppressed here is foolishness, folks...
This is my favorite line showing the ridiculousness of the Gnostic "Gospel" of Thomas, a text which the media loves to rave about now and then as somehow threatening the teaching of the Church:
Simon Peter said to him, "Let Mary leave us, for women are not worthy of life." Jesus said, "I myself shall lead her in order to make her male, so that she too may become a living spirit resembling you males. For every woman who will make herself male will enter the kingdom of heaven."Hello, McFly!! We should be grateful we have the New Testament Canon we have and the authority of the Church that recognized its inspiration.
That is all.
