You're referring not to the "Apocrypha", but "Apocryphal" books. In either case, you're wrong. "Apocryphal" books may not have been canonical, but that doesn't mean they contained a totality of error. e.g., if I taught a history class and remarked that the movie "JFK" was fiction, does that mean Kennedy wasn't shot in Dallas? Since the apocryphal Gospels assert the Jesus rose from the dead, does that mean he didn't?
There is no point in discussion when your standards for historical truth and accuracy are this loose. Don't expect me to agree that the foundations of Christianity is so flawed as you would demand.

Y'think that's bad, wait until you have a discussion with someone who can't even get the terminology straight while calling your religion "supersititious claptrap".

Guess what? Jesus built the Church on an extremely flawed foundation named Peter.
