They’ve discovered a Gospel of Judas.  It says that Judas was Jesus’ best friend…

EQ:  Absolutely true…

And he was asked by Jesus to betray him.

EQ:  Now think about this.  If Jesus had never been betrayed, would anybody remember him?  What thee don’t know, but if thee study it thee will find, there were many entities at that time that claimed to be the messiah, many that created miracles.  But because of the death of Jesus, he is remembered, the death followed by the resurrection.  Without Judas, would this have happened?

No.

EQ:  Nope.  It was planned.

Kind of a PR move then?

EQ:  Very much so.
