I imagine that the link, based in the preconceived definition about "Gospel" is like studying James CAMERON's The Lost Tomb of Jesus without actually reading it.

So that is what I suggest. Read it for yourselves. I call the Gospel of Thomas - "Slogans of Jesus". I think it quite more inspired than the Book of Mark as it only conveys the trusting and joyful aspects of Jesus' ministry without the commercial basis of integrating Paul's Benjamin heritage of sacrifice.
Good advice. Read it for yourselves and also read about the author (Robert Graves) and his neo-pagan presuppositions regarding his "fallen White Goddess" whom most believe he sought to restore perhaps more diligently than his questionable "restoration" of the Gospels.
