What are some of the things that have come out in the last 50 years? I'm genuinely interested. Thanks. Mary

Hi Mary,

I am talking mainly about the Nag Hammadi library and some other early gnostic Christian writings (e.g. the Gospel of Mary Magadelene.) Here are a couple of links that might be good places to start:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nag_Hammadi
http://www.gnosis.org/library/gs.htm

It is also interesting to keep in mind that there is not a universally accepted canon - there are disagreements even today among various branches of Chrisitanity regarding the legitimacy of certain writings.
