What I've learned so far:
Basically Gnosticism made the divine accessible to anyone, taking out the middleman between person and god. Those in power in Orthodox Faith felt threatened by this development, which is what probably kick-started the widespread erasure of Gnostic teachings and artifacts.
Idk man these gnostics dudes seem kinda chill. They put some respect on Mary Magdalene's name.

Wanted to read more but was way too sleepy to put in the work. Hope to finish this before the end of the year though!

Have wanted to do some research on gnosticism for a long while now. Specifically because of a project that is on the back burner but won't leave my mind.
Might be a difficult read for me since I'm extremely unfamiliar with religious texts but willing to give this a try!
Let's learn something new 👏
