Stephan A. Hoeller Quotes

Suggested That Gnosticism Expressed A Specific Religious Experience, Which Was Frequently Turned Into A Myth ... It Seems Clear That At Least Some Of The Major Gnostic Systems Were Inspired By Vivid Emotions And Personal Experience. And It Is Now Generally Accepted That Gnosticism Was Not A Philosophy, Or Even A Christian Heresy, But A Religion With Its Own Specific Views About God, The World, And Man. ("Gnosticism," In Cavendish, Man, Myth, And Magic 1115) And, We Might Add, Gnosticism Is A Religion Replete With Sacraments That Liberate The Soul.
