I understand that Gnosticism is not concerned with religious competition and to stir that up is not my intention. If there is no need for an answer to this question I will accept that.
The only differences I can spot so far, is that they are more closely resembling Roman Catholicism and the western philosophies. They don't seem to focus much on Kabbalah. And don't seem to take a stance on whether Jesus of Nazareth married or especially whether he practiced sexual alchemy. The Ecclesia Gnostica sect, I will call it, seems almost transitional to me. In that they still have an outer appearance of western orthodox but bring the teachings into a more Gnostic point of view. Is there any merit to what I am saying and are they teaching anything that you would consider to be flat wrong or missing from there teachings?
