Reminds us of the origins of Christianity We sometimes forget a few things about established organized religion. 1. The Bible is not complete. A few guys who were the upper eschelon of their "cult" got together (with their own agenda) and decided which scriptures could be included. These books and letters supported their own view of what they thought "Christianity" should be. They put more importance on the words of Paul (who, by the way, NEVER met the Christ and had his own issues boiling over into his ministry) than they did on purported witnesses and words of the actual disciples! This became the "Early Church" which then branched off into Catholicism and the Greek Orthodox Church. 2. The Bible was changed several times before today's version. Scholars have noted that Mary Magdalene in the original scriptures was NOT a prostitute, but a merely wealthy woman who was the most mentioned female disciple. What kind of insecure and unholy individuals would slander the Beloved Disciple? Even if you wholeheartedly disagree with this book, it makes you think long and hard (at least it should) about what kind of things the "church" is telling you to believe. Read Holy Blood, Holy Grail and the Bible, including the Gnostic Gospels, for yourself. The TRUTH is out there...
