In Search of the Lost Gospels

Videosift posted this cool documentary from the BBC. Here is the blurb that came with it:
A documentary presented by Anglican priest Pete Owen Jones, which explores the huge number of ancient Christian texts that didn't make it into the New Testament. Shocking and challenging, the books describe a Jesus who didn't die, who took revenge on his enemies, and who kissed Mary Magdalene on the mouth. Pete travels through Egypt and the former Roman Empire looking at the emerging evidence of a Christian world that's very different from the one we know today.
It's long, but it's interesting to watch this guy's process.

Yeah I watched thin in December and it was enjoyably interesting.

I posted another one I found on the topic which IMO is even better on the origins of both the Torah and Christian bible.

You can check it out here if you like.
