There is something amiss in all of this. Judas was not jesus' best disciple, but rather his best friend, from very early childhood. He could not fully accept the position of his friend as "GURU", a common mistake understood by the vaisnava in that familiarity is not really a good thing, in that we must not see guru as ordinary, a great offense that makes folks go insane (like many of Srila Prabhupadas close disciples may have had been affected).

This "gospel" may be real, but may be just another scam. I would like to see made available many extra-biblical scripture held in Vatican archives, especially what is known as the gospel of Pontius Pilate, who met with Lord Jesus after he survived the cricifixion.

stay tuned. Mahaksadasa

Here's my theory :

1. Romans are out to get Jesus and Jews do not protect him (because he had twisted the Scriptures and therefore, kicked out of the Tribe).

2. Jesus needed a fanatic follower - someone who follows without question. He choose Iscariot.

3. Jesus told Iscariot to tell Romans about his whereabouts, telling Iscariot that he was doing God's work.

4. Iscariot went and told the Romans, got paid. Romans arrested Jesus and tried him. Jesus was sentence to death.

5. Iscariot came and see Jesus, somehow, exchange places with Jesus who vanished.

6. Iscariot get cruficied in his behalf and Jesus reappeared as if from the Death.

In the Bible, it is stated that when "Jesus" was been left to die, he called out "Father, why you have abandoned me?". Many of Christian priests take the title "father" so what if the one he was calling is not God but Jesus? :ponder:

Also, it stated in Gospel of Judas that Jesus told Iscariot that he (Iscariot) will be cursed by generations after him BUT he will raised to rule over them (something similar to this).

This fits perfectly. Judas was used to potray Jews who didn't help Jesus thus their beliefs are called JUDAism. Yet Christians used image of Judas (not Jesus) who crucified as symbol for their god.
