Anyone know about the Gospel of Thomas, the doubting apostle.
I have read some of the other books by Elaine Pagels and note she has wrote a book about Thomas as well.

Gospel of Thomas
"He that would make his own liberty secure must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself."
Thomas Paine
"For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten."
Ecclesiastes 9:5 (KJV)

"This is supposed to be a happy occasion... Let's not bicker and argue about who killed who."
-- The King of Swamp Castle, Monty Python and the Holy Grail
"Nothing of consequence happened today. " -- Diary of King George III, July 4, 1776
"This is not bad; this is a conspiracy to remove happiness from existence. It seeks to wrap its hedgehog hand around the still beating heart of the personification of good and squeeze until it is stilled."
-- Chuck Sonnenburg on Voyager's "Elogium"

The Gospels aren't exactly in line with the rest of the Gospels, either.Hethrir wrote:I've got a copy of it. It's interesting to read, but some of it is not in line with the rest of the Gospels.

I was talking to a lady after posting on this ground and said that he wrote about werewolves and I did not see anything like that in his material.
This person also believs she is a werewolf though so it is pretty strange.
