text: I have 2 volumes of the "lost books" and heck yeah!  a different take  - several different takes -  on what got edited out.  
   you are more a scholar than I, but weren't the "real" gospels written up to 200 years after jesus?  I thought one, perhaps 2 depending on which john (doesn't sound like the best way to put it) actually wrote that gospel.  paul was an eye witness,  and possibly a john (lol - sorry - that's why i'm a "bad" Christian). paul wrote many letters, and traveled to spread his beliefs....but actual peers....?
