You silly geese wouldn't even be talking about Luke, John and the gang if Constantine and the First Council of Nicaea hadn't concluded that they were the 4 most compatible to be used to run an organized religion, as well as to discredit the Gnostic texts.

Agreed, yet, if they were going to use organized religion, I really wish they would of used the more "correct" of them, the Gnostic text and the Nag Hammadi library. But they really don't serve well together as organized, but shit, there'd be *less dogma and plain out stupidity, at least in gnosticism you have to THINK and DO, rather than sit on a pew and be told what to believe.
