Forbidden Faith
ByPublisher Description
The success of books such as Elaine Pagels's
and Dan Brown's
proves beyond a doubt that there is a tremendous thirst today for finding the hidden truths of Christianity—truths that may have been lost or buried by institutional religion over the last two millennia.
In
, Richard Smoley narrates a popular history of one such truth, the ancient esoteric religion of Gnosticism, which flourished between the first and fourth centuries A.D., but whose legacy remains even today, having survived secretly throughout the ages.

3.5
“I was hoping this would be a little less historical in nature and more explanatory of what Gnosticism actually is. Maybe Gnosticism is just an umbrella term for many different “heretical” belief systems? I’m still not entirely clear and I was hoping this book would clear that up.”
