Q and Gospel of Thomas represented the earliest Christian materials at an early point in a trajectory that eventually resulted in the canonical gospels. This burst of interest after the discovery of the Gospel of Thomas led to increasingly more sophisticated literary reconstructions of Q.
No wonder the Catholic Church doesn't want you reading the Gnostic texts they are the True account of Jesus' sayings.
The Catholic Church made Jesus all about death, resurrection and sin.
You don't know that, no one said that. Quelle is a hypothetical document and Gospel of Thomas is nothing that new and has been questioned and studied thoroughly by Christian Origin Scientists. Reconstructions are not the "True account of Jesus' sayings." They are merely reconstructions of a text that may or may never have existed in the first place. I believe the jews talk of oral tradition may apply here as well. We just don't know.
I know that the Catholic Church is evil and always has been.
I know they preach the NT and and frighten you away from all other religious thought other than theirs. The NT is the MSM of its day. How do you think they controlled the masses before MSM?
If the Catholic Church says to do something, do the opposite.
If the Catholic Church says not to do something, do it.
Reconstructions are not the "True account of Jesus'
Reconstruction? The NT is a reconstruction. Whats your point.
What are Christian Origin Scientist? Do you mean Biblical Historians, Biblical Archeologist, Biblical Theologians???
You say, "We just don't know" yet in your first post you said that, "No, This is wrong."

Dogma (the film) got one major component right about religion: catholics mourn their faith rather than find glory in it.
Excellent Quote.
Catholic rituals/masses are creepy as fuck.
Its all about Christ's death, eating flesh and drinking blood.
exactly and this^ is why I always asked so many questions during mass...didn't make sense/seemed so morbid
No, this is wrong.
Great argument. You've changed my mind.
you made a huge leap in faith as well as logic.
