OK, but Nag Hammadi was the source of a lot of gnostic heresies, like the Gospel of Thomas. I love the guy, but he sure doesn’t know religious history. Even if he mixed up the two, he was basically saying those heretical writings were the truth!
I do think Mormonism has a lot to do with this shortcoming.
The gnostic “gospel” of Thomas was not newly discovered per se, this was a more complete form of that writing.
Disagree on Beck saying they were the truth, what he did say was it was up to the individual to discover for themselves whether they were true or untrue.
His larger point was that in earlier times the religious hid their “sacred’ writings to protect them, which led to the whole bit about storing them in jars etc.
Which is an observable fact, when Saddam’s Iraq fell, there was handwringing over the antiquities that were “lost” when in fact the curators of the Mesopotamian Museums simply locked them in sub basement vaults and then flooded the basement with raw sewage in order to keep them safe from looters either public or governmental..
