  The Gospel of Judas

  by James Free in

  judas iscariot's reputation as one of the most notorious villains in history could be thrown into doubt with the release of an ancient text on thursday.

  the gospel of judas, a papyrus document from the 3rd or 4th century ad, tells the story of jesus' death from the fallen disciple's point of view.

  alleged to be a copy of an even older text, it casts judas as a benevolent figure, helping jesus to save mankind.

  Ancient text offers revelations about Judas

  Manuscript indicates disciple betrayed Jesus -- at his request

  WASHINGTON (AP) -- National Geographic unveiled an ancient manuscript Thursday that may shed new light on the relationship between Jesus and Judas, the disciple who betrayed him.

  The papyrus manuscript was written probably around 300 A.D. in Coptic script, a copy of an earlier Greek manuscript.

  It was discovered in the desert in Egypt in the 1970s and has now been authenticated by carbon dating and studied and translated by biblical scholars, National Geographic announced.

  Unlike the four gospels in the Bible, this text indicates that Judas betrayed Jesus at Jesus' request.

  The text begins "the secret account of the revelation that Jesus spoke in conversation with Judas Iscariot."

  The key passage comes when Jesus tells Judas "you will exceed all of them. For you will sacrifice the man that clothed me."

  This indicates that Judas would help liberate the spiritual self by helping Jesus get rid of his physical flesh, the scholars said.

  The manuscript was first mentioned in a treatise around 180 A.D. by a bishop, Irenaeus of Lyon, in what is now France. The bishop denounced the manuscript as differing from mainstream Christianity and said it produced a fictitious story.

  There were several gospels in circulation at the time in addition to the four in the Bible. When those gospels were denounced, it was thought that believers hid them away.

  The gospel of Judas was kept by a group called the Gnostics, who believed that the way to salvation was through secret knowledge given by Jesus to his inner circle.

  National Geographic said the author of the gospel of Judas believed that Judas Iscariot alone understood the true significance of Jesus' teachings.

  CO-HABITING makes women FAT

  by hamsterbait in

  a recent study published today says that women who marry or move in with a partner start to pile on the pounds?.

  i wonder if the saying is true - "a single woman gets home from work exhausted.

  looks at what's in the refridgerator and goes to bed.

  I agree that this goes both ways. However you can't simply generalize based on attuide. For instance when I got married I gain 30 lbs (ouch!) which I lost after my divorce, but my wife ate way more than me and she didn't gain a pound. Some people just gain wieght easier than others, it has more to do with genetics than anything else.

  You have the same chances of getting what you want from praying as you do from sending me $50 dollars anytime you want results. The catch is you have to truely believe in me, if you do I garuntee you results, if not you may not get anything. I can know if you're being sincere or not, you can't fool me! So please, if there is something you need, just PM me and I'll tell you how to give me $50 and it will happen!

  Since Richies Shown Elders Have Been Told To Destroy Pedophile Elders Files

  by wanda in

  hi, especially so to the watchtower posers whom i hope are capable of reading this as they gnash their teeth and their eyes go wild with fear.

  the more the watchtower posers say to be quiet, act "delicate," or forget it and the more they try to laugh it off, the more other people become fired up to expose them.

  it was easy to predict that what richie has put on the internet and that has now gone earthwide would occur.

  firstly, do not burn down the kingdom halls!

  i'm sure you can tell the difference between an attention grabbing topic title and a genuine call to arson.

  i am not advocating illegal behaviour and neither would anyone associated with this site.. my question is; just how far would you go?

  What about political lobbying?; Media campaigning?; Placard waving?

  How about phoning the elders asking them point blank about all the sensitive issues, recording the conversations and posting them on the internet?
