Re: Gospel of John

allow me to correct. Jesus was born 4 to 6 BCE, died around 30-35 CE and
unless John were a complete moron, he most CERTAINLY did not write the
"Gospel of John", though he may well have written the "Secret Gospel of
John". John was a Jew. The writer of John certainly was not, as evidenced
by the repeated misstatements about how things happened, ie Jewish law.
Also, very doubtful that any of the 4 traditional gospels were written by
Jews, and certainly not by the followers of Jesus who almost certainly
wqould not know Greek. We know that they were apparantly originally written
in Greek because of word choices, and because they were written in Greek &
Latin for fgoreign audiences and this was when the conspiracy took place to
change the man's name to the Greek "Jesus" thereby seperating him from the
Jews.
