Joe's and Granton and Loyola and all these Jesuit universities, Detroit Mercy.

And, um, but anyway, the Gnostic gospels, the Gnostic gospels

where they were found in Naj Hamadi, and they were written in the period between Christ's death and the first two centuries.

And there's the Gospel of Thomas, Gospel of Philip, and Constantine,

No, I'm very interested in this.

Emperor Constantine converted to Christianity.

Yep, the end.

But what he did, and really what it was about, was not a true transformation of faith.

It was a way to consolidate power.

So he made the Christian bishops who were 200 years into the very, very early church,

He made the Christian bishops his lieutenants and enforcers as it related to the religion so that he can control the more radical elements of it.

And so that is when they came to an adoption of just four gospels.

And, um, there's all of these other writings that became, uh, that you could get excommunicated for, um, promoting.

That is really beautiful, really beautiful, um, portraits of like the gospel of Mary Magdalene and Jesus's relationship with Mary Magdalene.

But anyway.

And it's not a gospel, but it is one of the texts.

I think it's called the Acts of John.

There is a thing that Christ says, and he says, I'm paraphrasing, you must learn to suffer as I do in order to be able not to suffer.

And that is the greatest lesson

of everything, is not having gratitude for all the good things in my life, for having immense gratitude for all of my life.
