Gnostics, Gnosticism...

Technically He was if we are to trace His family roots but then again, He never was...really not.

He has the knowledge for He is the son of God but it doesn't makes him one with Gnostics.

proponents of gnosticism like Ammonious Saccas invites you to experience your "God" concept as a living experience, as if your "god intoxicated' or "mystical experience", their claim is based on their experience & not on some dictations of some holy books, so the perfect way to VERIFY its truth or falseness is to experiment on it & not just reject it because its not in your manual,
One of its practice is to see every humanity as yourself, try practicing it in just a day(not thinking of it but really treating people as if your treating yourself) & see if thers any dramatic change of your life, if you still the same person w/ all the selfishness & fears in life, then by all means go back to your old toys or concept that will make you happy

I see, you have your way... I have mine.
I don't want to conduct any experiments or whatsoever...it will come surely it will.
Research, investigation and experiments will only make me busy, I don't wanna be busy.
I hate being busy....B-eing U-nder S-atan's Y-oke.

Yah ok, well its always nice to judge something when you tried it,
& by the way im sharing what i knw of mysticism based on my readings, research,
was born catholic but it does not hinder or make false judgement on mysticism, cause i care to know first before making unfavorable judgement, but i guess you just love what you have right now & pls continue your passion of your understanding of your religion,

Gnosticism was the earliest form of Christianity. Read and study History.

GNOSTIC GRAIL?
Is there an ET connection to the mystery of Jesus? Was the famed carpenter from Galilee actually the Son of God, or a mere itinerant Rabbi preaching Temple reform, or a cunning anti-Roman revolutionary–or was he in fact a Gnostic, whose wisdom and teachings were so radical that a vast authoritarian religious structure was erected to contain and suppress it?

Gnosticsm is occultism particulary esoteric, this is not acceptable to christian belief which is exetoric. Anyway its nice to read.

Catholism Adopts esotericism applying apostolic tradition to its doctrine.

[amingb]

Christians are warned to Regarding Occultism ( gnosticsm in particular )

"put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places" (Ephesians 6:11-12).

God set a standard for our Lives and the basis for that standard is the Bible ..

the only thing i know about gnosticism is a website. the people there pursue their spiritual paths by destroying the ego. the moderators there and most of the online members are the most polite and least egoistic people i've encountered in a forum.

for me, it speaks well of the gnostics movement.
