I should have pinged the posse to this site and videos. The information is very good scholarship.

I know you don't really want to talk to me, but I do have a few questions after watching your video link (thanks by the way).

Do you consider Mormonism to be a form of Gnosticism?

I under stand the cut off date and agree that you have to have a place where you stop adding to a specific compendium of Scripture. I also agree you need to have standards for adding books to your "Scriptures" for example, the "Gospel according to Judas" is probably a fake, but what about books that should have been in the old testament that were cut out, like the book of Enoch and the Book of Jasher (as found in the Dead sea scrolls) what is your take on why they were not included in Cannon, were they unknown at the time the councils were being held at Jamnia?

Here is an interesting article on the Council at Jasmina where the old testament was basically canonized. http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/03267a.htm

The Book of Enoch (Henoch) is listed at http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/01602a.htm>http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/01602a.htm
