A BBC spokesman said, “We are not seeking to subvert or rewrite the Gospel narrative – we are just retelling it to bring it alive for a contemporary audience.” I would be better put: “A spokesman for Lucifer said, ‘etc. etc. . . .'”
The “father of lies” is once more unleashing a barrage of neo-gnostic falsehoods in a frenzied effort to subvert the truth of the Gospels. It is no coincidence that these fanciful productions come out during the Christmas and Easter seasons. With Deepak Chopra recently released creation, “The Third Jesus,” hitting the major bookstores, now we have to have a movie mini-series exonerating Judas (again), Pontius Pilate, and even Caiaphas, to complement it.
