I liked the little guy who climbed the tree. I think his name was Zaccheus.

the one that Chris Rock played in Dogma.

My fave = Andrew, of course. Means 'manly' hoho. According to my Dictionary Of Beliefs And Religions, "The belief that his cross was X-shaped dates only from the 14th century."

Judas was perhaps the holiest because he had the balls to complete the task and go to hell
Als o love Thomas because he says we need to pyshically experince what we beleive not go on faith
Peter seemed gentle enough
But Paul was so much of a reactionary mofo that he infuriates me .

paul = not one of the 12 disciples

I have a soft spot for James the Less

I know that but every vauge time i have a chance to kick Paul i do .

Peter. He is a rock, he is an island. And that denying shit - he's the only disciple you can really identify with. And he wore bovver boots.

(also = the disciple formerly known as simon)

I always liked John, because he wrote a Gospel in which he keeps referring to himself as "the Disciple Jesus loved" i.e. - I was Jesus' best best friend, not any of the other losers.

DV - I seem to remember from Bible Studies that the authoriship of the fourth gospel is not clear and is unlikely to be the disciple John cause he was an illiterate fisherman or something.

James, I guess. though Clive was kinda cool, he sorta hanged back and watched the world go by.

NB: the gospels were not written by the disciples.

Page on the authorship of John's Gospel.

Thomas cause he had the guts to say you guys were full of shit, though he did make an ass of himself by boasting how full of shit they were.

Dont think Zaccheus was a disciple, he was just a goof in a tree.

Thomas would have been better if he'd shortened his name. And also if he hadn't changed his mind about the resurrection, given that he was, y'know, right.

The disciple I feel sorry for is the other Judas, who got brought in to replace the first Judas for obvious reasons. What fun he must have had at meetings of the early Christians. "And this is Judas - ha ha, fooled ya! The other Judas!"

(NB I gave up religious studies at age 13 so may be wrong on Judas- swapping details)

Tom, Monday, 1 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"Always wanted to be an apostle knew taht I would make it it I try. THen when we retire we can write the gospel so they'll still talk about us when we die" anyone know what that's from?
