Here is a press release we issued earlier today…
PRESS RELEASE
31 October 2006: The Alliance of Gnostics in Community and Awareness (AGCA) endorses a NO VOTE on Virginia’s anti-gay marriage amendment (ballot question 1)
The Alliance of Gnostics in Community and Awareness (AGCA), a progressive church communion of neo-classical Gnostics around the world, has a policy of not endorsing particular candidates for office in national or local elections. However, we do provide guidance rooted in the Gnostic spiritual tradition about particular issues facing voters in American and selected international elections.
Next Tuesday, Virginians, including our Vicar who resides in Richmond, will be asked to vote on a “marriage amendment” aimed at permanently disqualifying whole sections of our Commonwealth’s citizens from some of their most basic civil rights having to do with family, property, and health-care decision-making. The AGCA has consistently articulated a moral message about the rights and dignity of people of all sexual orientations and gender identities.
Accordingly, the AGCA is formally endorsing a NO vote on Virginia’s constitutional amendment banning gay marriage.
It is all the more vital that we in Virginia fight back against the encroaching fundamentalism of the conservative theocrats, because our state is the birthplace of American democracy and the source of ideas about the fundamental importance of human freedom, individual liberty, and the right of each person to the pursuit of happiness, as long as others are not being harmed.
As Gnostics, we believe in the equal spiritual dignity of each individual person, regardless of their race, ethnicity, personal beliefs, or sexual orientation. One of our sacred texts, the Gospel of Thomas, reminds and challenges us, “Love your brothers and sisters like your own soul; guard them as you would protect the pupil of your own eye.”
We look forward to the day when all marriages and all families will be fully and equally respected in our society, even as they are already respected in the eyes of God. We hope that all the anti-gay laws that have been passed in recent years will eventually be struck down by the federal courts under the Fourteenth Amendment and the full-faith-and-credit clause. But we know that it will take a long time for this to happen. It took a long time to get from the disgrace of Plessy v. Ferguson to the victory of Brown v. Board of Education, and we believe that the issues at stake are fundamentally the same — civil rights are civil rights, and equality means protecting the civil rights of all and protecting them from discrimination on any basis. In the meantime, the AGCA continues to offer unity/commitment ceremonies to all couples, gay or straight, who are drawn to our spiritual ideals, even if they are not themselves Gnostics per se. The text of our unity ceremony is available online at http://www.gnostic-church.org/unityceremony.htm
To learn more about our faith and our organization, please visit our main website at http://www.gnostic-church.org/. If you have any questions or comments, you may contact our Vicar, Brother Matthew, directly at vicarmatthew@gnostic-church.org
Vote for human dignity. Vote for freedom. Vote for Virginia’s legacy of democracy. Vote NO on Ballot Question 1.

Gnosis and Nietzsche October 29, 2006
Posted by Brother Matthew in Cultural Theory, Gnostic Theology, Uncategorized.add a comment
I have just been thinking of the interesting connections between the Gnostic ideas expressed in the Gospel of Philip and the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche (when it is not over-simplified, as it usually is in popular discourse). Consider Nietzsche’s famous comments on God in his “parable of the madman” (http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/mod/nietzsche-madman.html)
“God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we, murderers of all murderers, console ourselves? That which was the holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet possessed has bled to death under our knives. Who will wipe this blood off us? With what water could we purify ourselves? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent? Is not the greatness of this deed too great for us? Must we not ourselves become gods simply to be worthy of it?”
When you really think about what is being said here, it is sort of a modern development on an idea that was central to the Gospel of Philip. GoP observes:
“God created humanity… [but then in turn] humanity creates ‘God’ [i.e. the concept]. That is the way it is in the world – men and women make gods and worship their creation. It would be much more fitting for the gods to worship the human beings.”
Nietzsche, living 1700 or more years later, was facing the obverse side of this paradox, once the paradox had begun to decay — though indeed its decay is already evident in the revolutionary ideology of Gospel of Philip — but all the more so in Nietzsche, who is confronting this decay head-on: “Do we hear nothing as yet of the noise of the gravediggers who are burying God? Do we smell nothing as yet of the divine decomposition? Gods, too, decompose.”
It is just as necessary now to clear away the stench of this decay in order to face the truth about ourselves and our destinies.

In Memoriam, October 2006 October 26, 2006

As most of you know, we have made a practice of commemorating and memorializing the names of US fatalities in Iraq as a way of illustrating the costs of the war and commemorating the loss of so many young lives in the pursuit of death and folly. Our last public recitation of the names of the deceased was on Good Friday, so we are now preparing to offer another recitation for our commemoration of Samhain and the pagan new year. Unfortunately, it is another very long list. If you would like to volunteer to help read the names of those who have passed on during our online service, please email me at vicarmatthew@gnostic-church.org.
These are only individuals who have died since Good Friday, 2006. These are limited to only official US fatalities.
