    Read the Infancy Gospel of Thomas if you want some fucking wild uh… near contemporaneous fan fiction … ? … of a very young baby Jesus acting like a righteous little bastard.

        lol, true, that is the … less irreverent way to put it. =P

        By that logic, I’ll now be referring to Disney Star Wars as apocrypha, hahaha!

        Noncanon material not written by the original author but taking place in the same universe. That’s literally the definition of fanfic.

        You can’t both call it apocrypha and call it non-fiction. It’s either true or it’s not. Pick a lane.
