At the Vatican, the Cardinals gathered in secrecy after morning mass to discuss the ramifications of their startling discovery. Plausible deniability was bantered around until the Grassy Knoll Institute leaked the story.
Inside the Vatican, there is a vast library filled with religious books, scrolls, and documents. Also in the library, the Vatican has a 5000 square foot room that was sealed in 1215 by Pope Innocent III and by decree was not to be opened until February 19th, 2010.
With the arrival of a new Pope, Benedict XVI, new routines and regulations were implemented to accommodate the new Pope.
During this transition, a new staff was hired and appointed to attend to the popes needs. Several priors were appointed to the master library to assist the current staff as Pope Benedict XVI is an avid reader of scriptures. The Pope would be asking for the ancient texts of many scriptures to study to help in his decision making for the future of the Catholic faith.
Last month, the Pope requested a copy of the Magna Carta penned in the year 1215. The new prior, in his attempts to locate the document, stumbled upon the door sealed by Pope Innocent III in 1215. The prior, after some quick research, determined that the Magna Carta document was located in the locked room. The prior unsealed the door, opened it, and light shone upon the room for the first time in centuries. The prior searched the shelves but could not find the document requested. What he did find however, was the Gospel according to Judas, one of the twelve Apostles of Jesus.
As luck would have it, the Grassy Knoll Institute had several operatives at the Vatican and was a witness to the Gospel by Judas as the prior removed it from the room believing it was a wondrous artifact found.
The resident Cardinals instantly knew the prior had erred. The seal was broken, the room was filled with fresh air, and bright light. In a matter of minutes, the Vatican was quarantined and locked down. Minimum exposure was the prudent course of action agreed upon by the Cardinals and the Pope.
However, the so-called genie was out of the bottle. The staff and local personel in the Vatican knew the secret.
Through a deal negotiated with the Grassy Knoll Institute operatives at the Vatican, the context of the Gospel was presented to us. (We will say the five Hail Marys and Five Our Fathers at a later date)
Upon inspection of the gospel, Judas was not portrayed as the traitor he was made out to be in the other testaments. In fact, Judas writes that it was Jesus who insisted that he turn him over to the Roman soldiers at Gethsemane. Judas at first refused knowing he would be damned for all time as the traitor who turned Jesus over. Jesus told Judas that he was the strongest of faith of the Apostles. He told Judas that Peter would deny him, and that Thomas needed exact proof before he would believe. The other Apostles all had small weaknesses except for Judas. Judas had blind faith. He would do anything for his Lord. And he did.
Judas wrote that after Jesus explained what had to occur, he reluctantly agreed and they both began devising their plan. Jesus being a gentle man, did not want any violence or bloodshed when he was captured. It would have to be when he was away from the crowds. The destiny of both Jesus and Judas would be set in motion when it was decided that Judas would go to the priests and speak to them about Jesus losing control of the crowds of people worshipping him and now calling him the Messiah. Judas would claim he was fearful for the entire population if Rome became concerned with this man called Jesus. Judas was paid for his efforts, the notorious 30 pieces of silver and told the priests where they could find Jesus away from the crowd. The rest is history.
This version is very different from the other four "Official" Gospels. Judas was portrayed as a traitor, acting alone giving Jesus up to the Romans for a hefty sum of silver. But, according to Judas, he was doing the Lords bidding, and a deal between him and the Lord would only be known to Judas and Jesus. Until today.
This version has merit for in every conspiracy and assassination, the first order of business is to silence the assassin. Judas gives up Jesus, the other 11 Apostles conspire and make public a report, a history of the events that took place to be recorded as history and believed to be fact. Judas was then silenced by an apparent suicide.
If you would simply replace Judas with Oswald, and the Apostles with the Warren commission, and Jesus with Kennedy, history sort of repeated itself. Not once, but time after time throughout the ages.
Maybe in 50 or so years, hidden documents will shed new light on the Kennedy assassination. Perhaps a hidden document, or photo, or manuscript, detailing the days events as they really were, not what the Warren commission and media led us to believe. Perhaps a man in a few years from now will be on his death bed, and will look up to the nurses aid and reveal the location of this precious information.
Three days later Christ rose from the dead and returned to the Apostles to proclaim everlasting life to all those who believed in him. But that is another story.
