What Is Pleroma in the Gnostic Scriptures?
In the gnostic scriptures, you also find so many other little twists on early christianity that most people never hear about. There are passages that claim jesus wasn't crucified, but that a doppleganger was put in his place. And perhaps most strikingly of all, there is a cosmology that accounts for the existence of more than one god. These scriptures present us with a much richer and wilder version of christianity before the boundary lines of the biblical canon became strictly enforced. So given all of that, you can really understand why the early catholic church chose to destroy all gnostic scriptures and punish those who practised it.
