Louisville, CO Lines: 19 Lately a friend of mine at work (who is a Gnostic Christian) has been talking to me about his religion and I have been truely fascinated. I have always believed that christian's view of man/the world/the cosmos has been obstucted by the lower end of their digestive tract but this guy makes sense! Some my question is: How is the Gnostic chruch (not very big in the US but alledgedly very big in Canada, Europe, and Mexico) viewed by the "convential" christians? I know that the Gnostics consider them (convential christians) to be essentially correct but misguided. I would really prefer comments about theological dispute as opposed to the "I think they're all jerks" flavor of comments. -- Jeffrey P.
