I just watched the "gospel of judas" episode on national geographic.a very intriguing episode it was.MY STAND:no matter what role Judas plays in the Gospel or the New Testament my faith in Jesus remains unshaken.However the episode has injected a faint belief that Judas could have been a confidant of Jesus.The reason i say that is because the first gospel that is the gospel of Mathew doesnt portray Judas as a traitor and neither does the gospel of Mark. ill get more info soon...
