Burnt their books and killed there followers.
Until the Nag Hammadi scrolls were found there was little known about Gnostic belief. http://www.gnosis.org/naghamm/nhl.html



Edit: Kudos to adidasss for one of the most comprehensive and intelligent posts I've ever seen on these boards.
Thanks, I had a bit of free time... Although I'm sure the ADD generation won't take the time to read it.

And as far as taking things "literally", well excuse me for thinking you mean what you say

Stop claiming to be in college to impress me.

You can't know God. I do not understand how you as a Christian can tell yourself that you know God.

Not know as in you know who he is. I mean know as in understand him. And you are claiming that you do.


I'm done trying to rationally explain things to you when you obvious do not have any sort of humility when it comes to this sort of topic (and there is a big difference between religion and music).

If you are refering to principles, then yes, you can do that.

If you're referring to the supernatural than you are not an agnostic.
