You forgot Secular Humanism...
Seems like a writing of a mad mo follower.
1500 years ago is about when Mo-Ham-Head was polluting the earth. This crap is what all the Muzzies believe.
“.....instead it says he ascended to heaven alive ...?
As if this in itself would not be unusual.
Well, I’m glad that is finally settled. ;-)
Don’t they know they are supposed to do this a week or two before Easter. Sheesh. Can’t count on anybody to do things right anymore.
It took 14 years to arrange a "safe transfer"?
More muslim propaganda from the once “secular” Turkey.
The spirit of the AntiChrist reigns supreme there apparently.
It must have went into someone's spam folder and they just recently saw it...

“In March 2012 Dr Assad Sauma, an expert in medieval Syriac texts, reported that the manuscript deposited in the Ethonography Museum could be identified with one for which he had formerly undertaken a partial analysis. He stated that the portions of text that he had examined had consisted of random gospel verses and quotations; and also that he had been unable to find any correspondence between them and the text of the Gospel of Barnabas.”

There they go again.
The Apostle Thomas, writing on Sunday, April 12th, 0033:
"Not much exciting happened today."
-- from the thread CBS News Claims Documents Disprove Christ's Resurrection
If this book is written in Syriac I bet it is a copy of the Diatessaron a harmony of the Gospels written in the mid second century by Tatian. The Diatessaron was written in Syriac. This is significant because the spurrious gnostic “Gospel of Thomas” clearly used the Diatessaron as source material.
News editors are such easy saps to roll as long as you approach from the left.
Some readers have noted that the Gospel of Barnabas contains a number of apparent anachronisms and historical incongruities:[53] (From Wiki)
-It has Jesus sailing across the Sea of Galilee to Nazareth – which is actually inland; and from thence going “up” to Capernaum – which is actually on the lakeside (chapters 20–21); though this is contested by Blackhirst, who says that the traditional location of Nazareth is itself questionable.
-Jesus is said to have been born during the rule of Pontius Pilate, which began after the year 26.
-Barnabas appears not to realize that “Christ” and “Messiah” are synonyms, “Christ” (khristos) being a Greek translation of the word messiah (mashiach), both having the meaning of “anointed”. The Gospel of Barnabas thus errs in describing Jesus as “Jesus Christ” (lit. “Messiah Jesus” in Greek), yet claiming that ‘Jesus confessed and said the truth, “I am not the Messiah”’ (ch. 42).
-There is reference to a jubilee which is to be held every hundred years (Chapter 82), rather than every fifty years as described in Leviticus: 25. This anachronism appears to link the Gospel of Barnabas to the declaration of a Holy Year in 1300 by Pope Boniface VIII; a Jubilee which he then decreed should be repeated every hundred years. In 1343 the interval between Holy Years was reduced by Pope Clement VI to fifty years.[16]
-Adam and Eve eat an apple (ch. 40); whereas the traditional association of the Fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil (Book of Genesis 2:9,17; 3:5) with the apple rests on the translation of the Hebrew Bible into Latin, where both ‘apple’ and ‘evil’ are rendered as ‘malum’.
-The Gospel talks of wine being stored in wooden casks (chapter 152). Wooden casks were a characteristic of Gaul and Northern Italy, and were not commonly used for wine in the Roman empire until after 300 CE; whereas wine in 1st century Palestine was always stored in wineskins and jars (amphorae). The Pedunculate or English Oak Quercus robur does not grow in Palestine; and the wood of other species is not sufficiently airtight to be used in wine casks,[54]
...there is more. In short, a heretical Bible probably modified by some Muslim to cause confusion.
even contains a story in which Jesus predicts the coming of Prophet Muhammad
aye aye aye MO EH???
PLEASE!!
It is what Muslims have repeated to me for years. It is their story, and they are sticking to it.
Have any canonical books 1500 years old ever been found?
No kidding.
