Why all you have to do is read that silly tripe called the Infancy Gospel of James. A bright light...and presto! there the child was!

You call that "silly tripe"? You do it great honor.

But the rules of the RF prevent one from stating what it really is.

However, it's not as bad, or as badly written, as that nonsense called the Infancy gospel of Thomas, where Jesus as a boy is an out of control brat, maiming and killing everyone who displeases him.

What unadulterated hogwash.
