Great site!

I'm going to puruse this over the weekend, just glanced through the history/intro and a scanned a couple translations, but, ahem, I'm stoked.

Only thing is, I'm going to have to buy a dictionary on this one. And I thought I had a pretty good vocabulary.....

I read a book called The Nag Hammadi Library edited by John Robinson a few years ago. OK OK I skimmed it, it weighed a lot. What I could gather was the authors of these texts say the real creator of the universe has been kicked aside by a usurper. This guy who came in and started throwing his weight around is an imposter and has no legitimate claim. Through his claim of being God and sending his Son to die here he has thrown the world upside down. But through the study of these esoteric texts we can make the world right again and put the proper guy, i.e. Lucifer, back in his rightful place.
