I grew up as a Roman Catholic and that is the Bible I read, there are books that did not make it into the Catholic version, and I seek to find them and to see for myself what I consider to be historically accurate. I might also be changing my opinion on the existence of Jesus Christ as well, for years I have thought he never existed. Now I'm back to being agnostic about his existence. I should also look into Zoroastrianism while I'm at it, which I believe may have heavily influenced Christianity.
Alas as for the books there is two right now that really interest me, The Gospel of Thomas, and the Didache.

There is truth in every lie, and there is lie in every truth. This is history and I am extremely skeptical of history especially when concerning written history. If I had an interest in only what religious organizations had to say I would not be seeking then these books would I? Nor would I be seeking to learn about Zoroastrianism which has all but been forgotten.
