Gnosticism is a term covering a group of heresies that for a time
had great influence within the early church, including: belief in
the existence of a hidden or secret revelation available only to
the initiated; rejection of the physical world as evil or impure;
and stress on the radical individuality of the spiritual self. In
this book Philip Lee finds parallels between gnosticism and belief
and practice in contemporary North American Proestantism. Sharply
attacking conservatives and liberals alike, Lee spares no one in
this penetrating and provocative assessment of the current stage of
religion and its effects on values and society at large. The book
concludes with a call for a return to orthodoxy and a series of
prescriptions for reform. Lee will add a short preface for this
paperback edition.
