Why read it?
1 author picked Fragments of a Faith Forgotten as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Fragments of a Faith Forgotten is a great book on the real teachings of the ancient Gnostics and how they differed from Judeo-Christianity two thousand years ago.
Since this book was published, lost Gnostic texts were discovered in 1947 that support Mead’s earlier conclusions.
Bringing back the importance of Gnostic beliefs as Roman Catholicism collapses is a core theme in my book. Because the Catholic Church defeated the Gnostics and destroyed their great library in Alexandria, Egypt, almost all current information on the Gnostics is derogatory.
Mead’s work is a deep and balanced presentation of what they actually believed.
From Barbara's list on finding your soul and discovering ancient knowledge.
