That's easier to do now with the internet. I thought I'd done a lot of research but still find things that are new to me. It's only recently that I heard about some of the lost gospels. For example, I never heard about the Gospel of Mary or the Gospel of Judas until very recently.

Something I wonder about is how many of the people that attend religious services could pass a multiple choice quiz on the theological positions of their faith.

I wonder the same thing about voters and political candidates.

I've got two books of the Lost Books sitting on the bookshelf FT. They're interesting reads. One is by, and don't quote me on this, Bart Erhlman. (?) He put together a book about the Lost Books, and then a book containing the lost books themselves.

Oddly enough, these books have been revealed, authenticated, and anything else they needed to validate their authenticity, and I'm still unaware of The Church saying much about them. Especially since it's believed that they hold many texts in their own vaults, and have for decades, that authenticate them too.
