What the whole world thinks about the Secret Gospel of Mark (please vote!)

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

I have been reading with some interest for the past little while on the the Secret Gospel of Mark. I personally think Stephen Carlson has answered the question for us, but I try to stay open to other thoughts on the matter.

In case you would like to stay abreast of the online discussion on Secret Mark, Peter Jeffery has a great page here.

Just one more thing to say, and then I’ll get to the actual reason I am writing this post. Scot Brown described Peter Jeffery’s book as “a hermeneutics of desperation”. Perhaps it is just me, but a 47-page book review (not that I mind Brown taking advantage of the electronic medium) smacks a bit of a hermeneutic of desperation itself.

I am interested to know what the rest of the world actually thinks about the Secret Gospel of Mark. And since I know the entire academic world reads my substantial blog, I know that the poll below will give us an accurate view of the state of the question.

So without further ado, vote your opinion about the Secret Gospel of Mark! If you don’t like my wording, well then add your own option to the poll.
