I want to speak as a jews (because I'm a one).
I so the Gospel of Judas, but the movie "Judas" I havent see yet.
I think that some of the clip with Judas and Juses was taken from this movie.
Anyway as I understood, by the gospel of judas,
Judas help to jesus to release his soul, and jesus ask from judas to execute him.
If its true, and its seems to be true, I dont find any other reason why the cristians hate the jews, and way they have so mant anti Semites. and even if Judas betrayed in Jesus, that is a reason to kill so many jews on a guilty that based on only one jew human? (includes the holocaust and pogroms).
Anyway I think many anti semites contradict the gospel of judas.
But of these who have reality sense I made a song about the gospel of judas.
If you think its interest you to read my song so read it and stop hates jews.
I be also a grateful if you try to convince your frineds and family to listen to the true story and stop the 2000 year's conflict. If its true I think that Jesus will be a grateful too. So there is my song:

The Gospel of Judas.

It's uncovered in Egypt by tomb raider who pursues hoards in pyramids.
He discovered phenomenally the inestimable papyrus of old hermits.
After comprehensive analysis of the exposure, it verified as authentically.
Correspondingly left cryptanalysis and analogized the details is identically.

The Gospel of Judas, Judas Iscariot.
He simply executes after the edicts of Jesus, and release the savior soul.
He was valiant to extradite his master thus he will always crawl.
He saves his scholars comrades, and faithfully believes in his liege.
He influence according to the theory, so call him traitor is sacrilege.

The fundamentalists from Eastern Orthodox Church are obscurantist.
Solicitousness from go astray, human nature's virtuous is everlasting.
We are versus prehistoric unscrupulous. When epochs of reincarnation past.
Anti-Semitism divulgences, pogrom, bloodshed, holocaust is vainly.

The Gospel of Judas, Judas Iscariot.
He simply executes after the edicts of Jesus, and release the savior soul.
He was valiant to extradite his master thus he will always crawl.
He saves the apostles, and faithfully believes in his liege.
He acts according to the theory, so call him traitor is sacrilege.

Whether based on gospel, the Jews assist to distribute the Christianity.
So why to feel hostility if you can live harmoniously with serenity.
We can bridge the gaps and made a fresh start until we find discovery.
It is essential the world be aware of Judas isn't symbolizing treachery.

The Gospel of Judas, Judas Iscariot.
He simply executes after the edicts of Jesus, and release the savior soul.
He was valiant to extradite his master thus he will always crawl.
He saves his scholars comrades, and faithfully believes in his liege.
He influence according to the theory, so call him traitor is sacrilege.

I am a Christian and I do not hate any Jewish person or anyone of any different race for that fact. Peace be with you all:)

streetbazar1:"If its true, and its seems to be true, I dont find any other reason why the cristians hate the jews, and way they have so mant anti Semites."

And why do you think YOUR blatant anti-Christian hate speech is any different than the worst antisemitism?

Do you have any idea of the hypocrisy and double standard (Jews can attack and generalize and assert group-wide guilt on Christians, but not visa versa) of your statement?

"Obscurist" hate speech was invented by Judaism, which actually claims one group is favored by God, a god the Hebrews actually took from the Amorites.

Look to the Torah, it is the most hate filled document in human history!

"2,000 years of conflict"? Aren't you forgetting the massive hisotry of Jews oppressing others actually written and celebrated in the Torah, whcih form a modern perspective are the rantings of nationalist, racist, genocidal hate mongers mixed together with COMMON myths of creation written down by Non Jews long before Jews or the Torah were ever imagined?

The gospel of Judas is a pile of rot. It wasn't even written by Judas. It was written in the second century AD, and Judas had committed suicide shortly after betraying Jesus. The Gnostics loved to write stories like this, frequently making the villains of the Bible into heroes in their stories.

Judas betrayed Jesus, simple as that. He then committed suicide because the guilt was so unbearable. I hate the fact that he betrayed Jesus, but when you think about it, Jesus came to earth to do exactly what happened, to sacrifice himself for us. Judas is guilty of betraying Jesus, as are we all, so there is no reason for anyone to hate jewish people because of the death of Christ, because he rose again.

I too am a Christian, and I won't tolerate people hating jews, there's no excuse for it.

But I'm also not going to pay attentions to claims that Judas was some kind of hero :p

Judas never existed. He was created to make the Jews look even more woeful. Anybody who believes the Bible is without error is a knower of not much. Heigh ho!

Nothing is more beautiful than nothing.

And anyone who is going to accuse people who believe in the Bible as being 'knowers of nothing' should be prepared to back it up with real evidence. By that I mean not just point out alleged inconsistencies, but actual real evidence that the Bible is a complete fabrication.

You're welcome to not believe in it, but I do ask that you not put other people's intelligence down just because they believe something that you do not.

Severus Snape Fangirl and proud of it! :p

Nice try twisting my words. However at no point did I say that people who believe in the Bible don't have to give any evidence. I do believe when it comes to a persons own personal beliefs, they have no need to give evidence as to why they believe. But there's a difference when declaring something as being truth, and that does require evidence.

However my post that you responded to, merely said that people who wish to accuse 'believers' as being ignorant should provide evidence that the Bible is a fabrication. However as usual most people would rather just declare someone as being stupid for believing differently and claim the other party is the one setting double standards.


Why hate someone cos of religion, race, gender, differing opinion etc? Get past it =/

Why, so you can twist anything I say and feed your obvious intolerance for anyone who believes differently to you? Oh yes, I really can't wait for that.

It seems you still haven't grasped what I had originally said. People should be free to believe how they wish without being bullied into having to defend themselves against the likes of you. If people choose to try and teach others about their beliefs, then by all means they should give evidence

Your 'challenge' is pointless because I have at no point tried to teach you or anyone else that there is only one truth, as well as your only reason for doing so is to try and debate with what you clearly consider to be an inferior religious person.

Feel free to claim a victory here, but I don't waste my time with people (including religious) who are clearly not even open minded enough to consider another view point.

Once again you deliberately misrepresent what I have said and attempt to assert that I am trying to be elitist. You've presented no viewpoint here that anyone can be 'open minded' about, because all you have done is to put down people who believe differently to you and try to force me into a debate with you.

I'd love to know how I am being closed minded, given that all I have said to you is that I believe people should be free to believe what they want without being bullied, regardless of whether they believe in a God or not.

And Philistine? No. I explained why I see no point in debating with you. My issue with you is not your religious or non religious beliefs, merely the idea that it is okay to put others down for believing differently or trying to be elitist.
