I didn't know the "Gospel of Thomas" was considered Gnostic. So, Catholics and Orthodox fully (or mostly) reject it?

The Church most definitely rejects the so-called Gospel of Thomas as Gnostic, along with a multitude of other heretic texts of similar kind.

This is precisely why it took the fathers of the Church hundreds of years to sift through all these texts and reject or accept them in forming the Christian canon (New Testament).

Typically, Gnostic and other "gospels" use actual Gospel material (verses) and introject in between their own satanic verses, or even just single words! Thus, many appear as genuine "inspired" text when in fact they are devil's deception par excellence!

Boy, if so, then the History channel really let me down because I could have sworn they portrayed it as mainstream extra-Biblical teaching

The History Channel is a major source of satanic lies. If I were the devil, I would certainly use it to disseminate lies and make them appear as "mainstream extra-Biblical teachings" because it reaches so many people and because people generally believe what they see on TV.

But they only appear balanced, and their presentation gives an air (a deceptive one for sure) of credibility. They favor certain myths and lies and pass on inaccurate information as "fact" which most people take on faith alone and never check.

Thus, I noticed that they will spend inordinate amount of time on interviews with such satanic ambassadors as Elaine Pagles (the author of the book "The Gospel of Thomas") and her small but vociferous crowd on the History Channel as well as the Learning Channel (I believe both are owned by the same global satanic network). At the same time, genuine Church sources are interviewed in passing and barely skimming the surface of an issue. Usually, it is a lower-ranking clergy member or, preferably for the editors of Satanic TV, a dissident clergy member.

In 3060, Kolo backs you up 10,000%!

You are describing EXACTLY the program I was remembering (I think it was some sort of "History of the Bible" type of thing) and I'll be the first to admit that I fell for it hook, line, and sinker. It was easy for me to pick out error from my side so I thought I had it figured out. The problem was that they pinned the rest on you all and I didn't know any better at the time!

They did exactly as you said. They interviewed some woman who supported the Gospel of Thomas, and they also interviewed a few lower level clergy. It really looked to me like everyone was on the same page WITH Catholics and Orthodox. I am so glad this came up. Thanks.
