"Recently Discovered...Gospel of Judas! National Geo Channel 8:00(EST)

[KoKo]

Watch it! Is it real or "convenient."

BTW...I heard discussions of this WAY BACK in my "Sunday School Years" in the Episcopal Church, FGS! I really am having problems understanding WHY this is SUCH A BIG DEAL? :shrug: :eyes:

But it's enough of a BIG DEAL to Most Americans that CNN has Pumped Links to folks on Cable who subsribe to National Geographic (who in my mind, has become "National BushCOGraphic" to get the funding they need to move foward.

When National Geo...fired Peter Arnett...I cancelled my subscription...but What the Hell maybe this is GOOD and a GREAT REPORT! Tune in and WATCH...if you have CABLE.

DU'er Will Pitt has already posted on this...It must be a BIG DEAL for MOST AMERICANS!

I'm curious as to whether these Documents are really legit and questioning as to WHY they are just now deciphered and released.

Just like we had to wait was it 30 years for the Dead Sea Scrolls because their translation upset "some" in the University/Scholarly Community?

The "timing is suspect" but the idea that Judas was the "facilitator for Gods "plan" for his son...would seem to hold true? :shrug:

2. My fundie mom hates this...

She got how she gets when it comes to gays.

"Judas took the money. Judas took the money. Judas took the money." That's all she would say about it.

:rofl:

5. Your poor Mom....

some people are so defensive when their beliefs are challenged. She won't even entertain the idea, huh? :shrug: The human mind is like a parachute, it only works when it's open.

3. Thanks for the heads-up....

I love shows that challenge christian dogma, the believers get SOOO defensive! :rofl: Whether it's real or not, it really gets them going! Most won't even consider the chance that it may be true.
