    Yes, I saw Stigmata on TV the other night. While I've seen parts of it before, I didn't realize that there's an actual document that they discovered. I'm looking for info on this, maybe there will be a free translation online or something. I'm sure many will not acknowledge the authenticity or considered it inspired, but I am specifically looking for two things: 1. The actual content, and 2. Hard facts on the archeology. Thanks.

    In addition to the gospel of thomas there were other gospels written as well, just name a few there's the gospel of peter, the epistle of barnabas, the gospel of hebrews, the gospel of philip, and the sheperd of hermas. There is also one other mysterious gospel called the gospel of "Q" here are a couple of websight that deal with "Q", they might be of interest.
