Baloney. Even if it is, it's heresy and was NEVER taken seriously by any of the church fathers and was NOT included in the canon of scripture. And the reason is simple - it is inconsistent with NT themes and teachings.

Like I said, it is only taken seriously by those who seek to discredit the Christian faith - like the Jesus Seminiar and Da Vinci Code cultists.

the church fathers

Who are the church fathers?
Do you have a quote from them about the Gospel of Thomas?
Was Thomas the brother of Jesus?

Found this reference as to the Canon, worth the read...
