[edit] Gospel of Truth - Valentinus and the Cathars
Interesting that the passage quoted talks about those who have become 'perfect'. Valentinus's followers referred to those who had achieved true spiritual Gnosis as the 'Perfect Ones'. The Midi-Pyrenean Christian Gnostic movement the Cathars referred to their spiritual elite as the 'Perfecti' or 'Parfaits'. Has anyone investigated as to whether there is a direct line from the early Christian Gnostics to the Cathars? There must be. ThePeg 19.8.2006
