“Mary is an immensely important figure in Gnostic mythology, because she is Jesus’ consort and represents the Christian Goddess Sophia. Literalist Christians have completely erased Sophia from Christianity, but she was once as important a figure as Jesus”
Peter Gandy, The Laughing Jesus: Religious Lies and Gnostic Wisdom

“At the same time that Irenaeus is writing, the Pagan philosopher Celsus only knows of Christian gospels which are all attributed to women.33”
