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

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

Or you might just have phenomenally bad taste!

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

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.

You might be Gnostic if: you really think harp players come from heaven.



Robin

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.

Welcome, Anna!!!

So, what you're saying is, you might be Gnostic if your an independent, fundamental, KJV only, soul-winning, separated, pre-millennial, pre-tribulationational, massive bus ministry having Baptist?
