Uh, no.

I have studied this subject. You have obviously been told what to think, and probably would be surprised that the Gnostics strongly resemble the pneumatic (spiritual) Christians often addressed by Paul; for example, when he told his followers it was fine to blow off a lot of the Jewish law, such as not eating food sacrificed to idols, as long as this didn’t confuse other Christians, i.e., those who were “Called” but not “Chosen.”

I hope I am not further confusing you. But I grow tired of your constant attacks on others whose Christian beliefs you do not understand.

Gnostics are Christian? Arians?

Eve was the first Gnostic.
