An honest account of gnostics
A well written and researched short account of nomads and heretics that existed during the first few centuries of the millenium, with glimpses into their erotic methods and sexual cult like rituals that were performed as a way for their spirit to cast off a corrupt body and ultimately reach god. Their persecution by first the romans and later the christians and what they did in order to escape their persecutors.

Good book!
This is an excellent essay written with a somewhat literary style. The information it offers is fascinating, provided one has an open mind. I enjoyed reading it and have reread it several times over the past few years.

If you have an open mind...
...you will benefit from this "forbidden fruit." If you are aware that so much of what passes for truth is in fact so much wishful thinking, conditioning, and convenience, then you will enjoy this history. Read beyond the initial discussion of Gnostic metaphysics, and by book's end you may well have an enhanced perspective of some of the greatest questions of all.
