What is a Gnostic and Gnosticism? In this episode we'll discuss the beliefs and practices of the group of early Christians who may have referred to themselves as Spirituals, but we know as Gnostics. This group of early Christians shared many rites with mainstream Christian groups, but interpreted sacred literature, sacraments and the role of the deity in drastically different ways.
