[You answering you]
>Every bit of it.
Nag Hamadi library = gnostic writings centuries after Jesus lived that contradict the bible, were not written by witnesses to Jesus' life, and which do not contain the gospel. Gnostics operate in the spirit of antichrist denying that Jesus came down from heaven in the flesh. Literally in the spirit of antichrist.satanic gibberish
>Very informative and interdasting to read how the Holy Spirit's gift of tongues spread into the very wealthy and educated Ptolemaic regions of the empire.
It did not. Cessationism holds that the early apostolic gifts died with them to the point where Paul, the greatest apostle, could not heal his friends and co-workers. The gift of tongues degenerated into gibberish, the most abused gift of the spirit ever. Nor were the disciples of Jesus Christ also disciples of Ptolemy. It's just more historical revisionism trying to contain Christianity inside Neo-Platonism. Christianity spread among the poor and the slaves, not the elite. Never the elite.satanic gibberish.
>The barbrians egged on by Rome, who burned down the library of Alexandria most certainly faced consequences.
Nothing of value was lost. It was one of the most evil cities in the history of the world. Nothing godly ever came from Alexandria.
>I was also always fascinated by Apostle Thomas.
No you're not. You're fascinated by the pseudopigographer who forged "The Gospel According to Thomas" circa 250 AD. The one that says a woman has to become a man first, in order to be saved.satanic gibberish
>The main thrust of the Gnostics isn't something nefarious.
It absolutely is. It denies the divinity of Christ Jesus, the completed work of the cross, and the free gift of salvation. It cannot be moresatanic gibberishif it tried.
>It simply claims we can know God through prayer and study and do not need a preistly class to get there. Preists are fine, but they are not gatekeepers.
What an absurd statement. It does no such thing. It claims that there is secret hidden knowledge that if found and understood can elevate a man to a higher status. That man can use his knowledge of good and evil to become like God. The very same lie the serpent told Eve, you are telling Anons.satanic gibberish
>St. Benedict was a secret Gnostic, as was St. Thomas Aquinas.
>Gnosticism is an idea, and they're hard to kill.
'''The fact that you think Gnostics and Catholics are distinct groups of any significance whatsoever again underlines your inability to think clearly. There is literally nothing stopping a pagan Catholic from also being a pagan Gnostic, and vice versa.satanic gibberish
