'Tis the feast day of Judas
It's been almost 2000 years (if the Julian calendar can be trusted), since that infamous traitor's kiss - the kiss that marked the beginning of the Christian religion that changed the world as they knew it back then.
Without Judas, there can never be Christianity. Well, just a thought, he might have been one of the closest apostle and Jesus himself, entrusted to him the supreme mission of being the traitor that history will forever mark and remember. He must have loved the Christ that much.
There's this Gospel according to Judas that's circulating. Frankly, I am not that curious because there might have been a thousand would-have-been gospels that were not chosen by the group commissioned by Constantine to comprise the New testament... what's another one? This is good timing I guess, just in time for the showing of the Da Vinci Code the movie.

For me, I really liked Judas, Mary Magdalene and Paul of Tarsus. Of all Jesus' followers, I think these three were truly far ahead of their time.
