RE: Debating the existence of Jesus
June 25, 2013 at 9:36 am
In all my years as an atheist one of the few things I have never discussed is whether or not Jesus actually existed. I always kind of took it that he did - merely that he obviously wasn't who Christianity thinks he was.

Just in support of the argument that he did (and I have no horse in the race) I seem to recall hearing that there were other "gospels" that didn't make it into the Bible as we have it today. Amongst these are, apparently, one from Judas Iscariot and one from Mary Magdalene, both of whom would have been eye-witnesses. I have obviously never seen these texts but it would be ironic if there were locked away in the vaults of the Vatican never to see the light of day.

Now if you are going to ask me when Judas found the time to write his I couldn't tell you.
