Romanian medical doctor Anca-Maria Cernea made waves at the synod of bishops on the family last year when she told the assembly of bishops that the primary cause of the family crisis is not material poverty or consumerism but an ideological revolution being waged by “cultural Marxism.”

“This ideology calls itself progressive,” she said, “but it is nothing else than the ancient serpent’s offer, for man to take control, to replace God, to arrange salvation here, in this world. It’s an error of religious nature; it’s Gnosticism...”

...You also refer to Antonio Gramsci, the Italian communist who advocated spreading communism through cultural infiltration, in your talk. Do you believe this approach is also taking place within the Church, to try to change the culture of the Church in a very subtle way?...

...I also mentioned that we could see a change in the way the Church documents, encyclicals for example, express certain things, starting from Vatican II...

She is correct. Yes, gnosticism, the very first heresy, is alive and well today. “The past is never dead, it it’s not even past” is Faulkner’s wise assertion. We should see the Left for what it is: gnosticism-the diefication of knowledge.When St. John entered the Baths of Varius, he was informed that the well known gnostic Cerinthus, was there. He said, “Let us flee....the enemy of the truth, Cerinthus, is inside.
