gnostic

There exist educated gnostic atheists, but in my experience, they are more rare than educated agnostic atheists.

In my experience, the majority of gnostic atheists are like some of the kids on /r/atheism.

There is a podcast called Gnostic Media that has a really good interview with the researcher who did the 2006 Hopkins study.

This book was rejected for good reasons: it is a late and unhistorical production of a fringe Gnostic sect featuring unbiblical beliefs.

In Orthodox thought, bodies and souls are of equal importance (rather than the Gnostic idea of the living soul animating an essentially dead body).

Catholicism started as a counter reform to Marcionism, including the Torah again in the Bible and rejecting some Gnostic concepts still prevalent in Paulism.

The guys I know who stuck with this stuff got themselves involved in the modern OTO or gnostic ceremony or whatever.

Population growth, mass communication, and intellectual freedom have resulted in a huge explosion of things one can belong to and things one can be gnostic about.

The history of our didymus organizations in this sphere has been didactic and their gnostic practices will always be a tonic to the polyonymous and idiomorphous ethnical economies.

Then tell me how this gnostic priesthood giving us mere mortals a peek at 'the real thing' is going to give all that value back to hip hop.

I never said that gnostic atheists were philosophically ignorant or dishonest.

Thirdly, atheism comes in various degrees: strong/weak, explicit/implicit, gnostic/agnostic.

There several "gnostic gospels" from all around Roman times, that mention whatever the authors intended.

The parallels between "quantum data" and the Logos of Gnostic Christianity are also apparent.

Let me explicitly state what I tried to imply about your use of the word "gnostic": people who call themselves gnostic atheists are not generally being philosophically ignorant or dishonest.

Science isn't a magical thing that is somehow divorced from "everyday reality" or some gnostic religion that tells you how it really is without being somehow derived from experience.

The reason that apocrypha such as the Gospel of Thomas were not included in the early church canon, is because the Gospel of Thomas was pseudonymous, Gnostic, likely written in Egypt, dated around the middle of the 2nd century, well after the eye-witnesses of the events had passed away.
