My mistake.

I'm a christian and this really does not come as a great suprise to me??
I thought we were always taught the bible eluded to this anyways??
None the less I want to see the special because I am interested in the the uncovering of it and restoration.

I beleive that everything that the Lord wants me to know is in the Bible and that nothing else really matters.

I'm a Christian, it doesn't change what I believe - but I am very interested in finding out as much as possible about the historical Jesus. I think it all just reaffirms what happened back then.

Can't wait to see the special.

I'm not sure why something like that would "rock" anyone's faith.

God's plan was for Jesus to be crucified and die for our salvation. Judas was part of the unfolding of that plan. The Apostles, in their human nature, saw Judas as a betrayer, so that is what they wrote about, that is how they portrayed him. But I can very easily see how Judas can actually be seen as the catalyst for the crucifixion/salvation story. It doesn't change the ending, which is the important part...that Jesus died for our sins.
