Blog of the Grateful Bear

ramblings of a freelance panentheist {"all things are in God, and God is in all things"} . . . musings on Emergent spirituality, powerlifting, LGBTQueer issues, contemplative prayer, mysticism, cats, music, healing, and more. I like my coffee and my existentialism dark-roasted.

Grocery Store Gnostics

Seen at Kroger this afternoon: The Gospel of Judas, on sale alongside The Da Vinci Code.

Honey, could you stop at the grocery store and pick up a loaf of bread, a gallon of milk, and an ancient dualistic gnostic gospel?

Oh, and while you're there could you also pick up a six-pack and "You're Best Life Now"?

That crazy. Most of it is so arcane that it's just going to sit on a lot of people's bookshelves. The commentaries are good, but I doubt most people who buy Da Vanci Code at Kroger for a thrill will get a huge rise out of Marvin Meyer talking about the gnostic connection to the Gospel of Judas.

Good find! Too bad no pictures!
