RE: Tough questions on Science and the Bible - understanding how the Bible was written
The term Apocrypha is applied quite loosely depending on from who's perspective and their separate histories are more complex than the simple council of Nicaea.
isnt the apocalypse stuff mostly a catholic thing?
No. The apocalypse permeates the entire Bible, both Old and New Testaments. You can find it in Isaiah, Joel, Job, Daniel, Zechariah, and the writings of Paul, John, Luke, Mark and Peter, to name a few. It was all written from 400 to 1000 years before the bishops of Rome gained "universal" authority.
