I found this documentary incredible. This is information that is almost never mentioned in any of the "religions of the book". Not only Catholic, but also Protestant, and even Muslim.

Here the history of the "construction" of the Bible (New Testament) is investigated. Several "refused" gospels are described and even certain gospels not in the official New Testament but which are found in certain Eithiopian or Marionite Catholic bibles. There is even a "refused" gospel that is found in the Muslim Koran.

I found the explanations clear and well commented. A very good documentary that I first saw on the History Channel in the USA.

I recommend it highly to those who are interested in the origins of religions and the "process" of how a "offical" religion gets built.

Pierre Richard at his best. The movie has both verbal and slapstick comedy scenes which are some of his best. Mireille Darc when she turns her back to hapless Pierre. The dead bodies everywhere (including the refrigerator). A great comedy if you can understand the French.
