I have to agree that you might be gnostic if you're sharing the 4 spiritual laws with someone.

 

[Me Died Blue]

...if you think listening to secular music is "evil" and "of the flesh."

You might be a gnostic if you think alcohol and cigars are bad.

Please bear with my ignorance, but could you elaborate on the 4 spiritual laws? I'm in a reformed cave over here!

Four Spiritual Laws by Bill Bright of Campus Crusade for Christ

Blah!

 

[Solo Christo]

Ok. Now I remember. They should change the name from the Four Spiritual Laws to the Four Spiritual Straws (hee hee).

Those were all great. It's good to see some intelligent humor for a change.

[Solo Christo]

You might be aGnostic if you don't really believe there's enough information to truly know if there are harp players that could be in heaven, but you don't want to rule it out either.

Get it...aGnostic.

No?

It wasn't?

Really?

Ok, I'll keep my day job.

This is the ONLY reason I am NOT a gnostic. Otherwise, spiritual world here I come!
