It's a well-researched book. I believe that any new knowledge that comes out should be treated like science and research and be used for the benefits of mankind.

I haven't read the book either, but I have been following the discussion of it closely, including the author's own contributions. Fascinating stuff!

Latest Review: Island Games by Caleb J. Boyer

Post by dorebri2020 »

This book has some very unique ideas that I love. Since I was raised a Christian, I like the idea that Judas has been misjudged and misunderstood these past centuries. I think the book has some real value in the theological practice and could be utilized in many religious studies by other perhaps Catholic groups to analyze the true value.

This is a huge subject and red-hot now with the Nag Hammadi/Al Minya discoveries in Egypt and the Dead Sea Scrolls from Qumran in Jordan. I know the whole topic thoroughly, and I dare say better in a comprehensive overview than anyone else in the world. This is all I do now that I am retired. I know where all the scholars stand, and they are all wrong. Even the great Dr. Robert Eisenman (a good friend of mine).

The short book that is divided into four sections ,the author is aiming both Christian orthodoxy and as well as academic orthodoxy.he talks of his mission in proving the biblical story of how Judas was not a betrayal of Jesus Christ rather self-sacrifice.its a great book for those who have interest of reading about theology and philosophy.

I believe this was a interesting novel. It critiques the bible in a constructive fashion. It warns Christians against being judgmental. That was marvellous. I would recommend it to open minded Christians.
