Secret £14million Bible in which ‘Jesus predicts coming of Prophet Muhammad’ unearthed in Turkey
Thought to be a “Gospel of Barnabas” that has Jesus saying that the *real* prophet of God would be an Arab feller named “Muhammad.”
Yeah… about that…
If there one thing that people love to make phony copies of, it’s religious artifacts. And even better are hoaxed artifacts that help sell some local religious, political or personal agenda. And so while I’m hardly an apologist for Christian theology, my first thought about a religious text that claims to overturn an entire religion in favor of the local religion works out to:
We’re dealing with a region of the world with rather an impressive history of religious chicanery. More importantly, we’re dealing with a local culture so deeply entrenched in credulous gullibility that it makes a convention of 9-11 Truthers look like a meeting of the most curmudgeonly skeptics in CSICOP.
