Here's my email address: finnmark555@yahoo.com Personally, I go all the way to ancient Alexandria within the elect circle of initiates taught by Carpocrates. Yeah, I realize that I'm making a pretty far-out claim here, and if you think its bullshit that's A-OK by me. So don't let that stop you from having some pretty "far-out" but thought provoking conversations. I've been ''Marcus" centuries. And if there's one thing you can say about Gnosticism it's that is pretty far-out. I promise you I'm just not some deluded flake. I've been a Gnostic for a long time and I 'know' my stuff is what it amounts to, and in the spirit of community & friendship involving all things "gnostic" I'd love to here from you merely by virtue that you're into this site. Gnostic Enemies is a heretic's harbor that consistently does the heart good to all who who are lucky enough to click onto ( and no such thing as "luck" by the way). Hasta la vista babies, ~Marcus PS: please ignore any typos and poor grammar on my part here, I'm all thumbs. Hey people,
I’m Marcus and I am a 21st century practicing radical antinomian gnostic who’d love to chat with anyone who feels liking dropping me a note about anything gnostic. Here’s my email address: finnmark555@yahoo.com Personally, I go all the way to ancient Alexandria within the elect circle of initiates taught by Carpocrates. Yeah, I realize that I’m making a pretty far-out claim here, and if you think its bullshit that’s A-OK by me. So don’t let that stop you from having some pretty “far-out” but thought provoking conversations. I’ve been ”Marcus” centuries. And if there’s one thing you can say about Gnosticism it’s that is pretty far-out. I promise you I’m just not some deluded flake. I’ve been a Gnostic for a long time and I ‘know’ my stuff is what it amounts to, and in the spirit of community & friendship involving all things “gnostic” I’d love to here from you merely by virtue that you’re into this site.

Forget my spurious concerns about any "spiritual concern with too much caustic humor." You continue to excell at writing intelligently informed & very humorous articles with style & verve. And you fulfiill an important role within the 'gnostic community' as a teacher in the best sense of the word -- teaching Gnosticism 101 while putting a grin on your students. Bravo! drop me a line when you have the time brother, sincerely, ~Marcus the Apostate Well Max,

Max, I have to say, I've been a fan of your website for a number of years ever since I was introduced into the vast and vexing subject of Gnosticism through it. I always enjoyed your writing and articles. Thank you for your work, - AeonEye Hi Rev. Max,

I mean that beyond just saying the funnier the better Gnosticism embraced tradition. Its own traditional involved the antinomian inversion of Jewish & Christian tradition, but that was still to a higher purpose. Modern man has no purpose and sees tradition of any kind as a target for ridicule, cynicism, and profane (as in the opposite of sacred) humor with yukking it up all the way to the liquor store to get back home for a good buzz and juicy internet porn. Anyway, in a world where people turn inward to free something within the Wasteland of ensouled passions and self-exalting mind games all this is very understandable. Anyway Max maybe what I'm saying about Tradition is something to add some food for thought in relation to your artist's statement.

Max, remember a guy whose username was synesius on your site, saturated in Gnosticism, a self-confessed Bokor in Haitian Voudoo & M. Betriaux's "Gnostic Voudon Workbook?" You discussed Palo with me and I elaborated on "Esoteric Voudon." Would you care to correspond again from time to time again? sincerely, your former/current friend, ~Marcus Hey Rev. Max,

I thought I'd stop by after all these years and say, "Hello." I first came upon your site when I was 15/16 years old...you may remember me as Redkor or Jackal-Ra. Hello there, Reverend.
