Like, seriously, could you tell us without listening to the episode first? It seems as though "gnosticism" is a Christian boogeyman term used to slander anyone thinking outside of orthodoxy! It's been used to denigrate other denominations, deconstruction, mysticism, other religions. Can we please define our terms?! And once we do so, can we spot it in the modern world?

Mentioned in the episode: 

• Google's word usage of Gnosticism graphic
• John 1 - John's Preamble
