Ah, yes, but according to "Judas" himself (ie from the Gospel According
to Judas, recently recovered and translated in Egypt), he didn't betray
Jesus: he was doing exactly what Jesus wanted him to do.  Then there's
the Gospel According to (Doubting) Thomas which (not surprisingly)
doesn't make any mention of Jesus being resurrected.  As far as I know,
both of these "non-canonical" gospels are considered authentic, dating
back as early as 130-170 AD (Judas) and 140-200 AD (Thomas).

Interestingly, this means that six out of the twelve apostles were
heard from (or at least had gospels attributed to them).

Martin... knows this post is off-topic... but so is Tom's :)
