[truthseeker]

What's the Gospel of Barnabus about, anyway?

This is the first that I've heard of it.

Here you go... courtesy of Wikipedia...

The Gospel is considered by the majority of academics (including Christians and some Muslims) to be late, pseudepigraphical and a pious fraud; however, some academics suggest that it may contain some remnants of an earlier apocryphal work edited to conform to Islam, perhaps Gnostic (Cirillo, Ragg) or Ebionite (Pines) or Diatessaronic (Joosten), and some Muslim scholars consider it genuine. Some Islamic organizations cite it in support of the Islamic view of Jesus; Islamic views are treated below.

Interesting, interesting. Thanks, Q. I was not aware of the Islamic view of Jesus. Your post said quite a bit.

No, no, no, you misunderstand me! I meant the stereotype of the American Christian fundamentalist, I wasn't trying to say that most American Christians are fundamentalist.
