Description: Interruption of Eternity : Modern Gnosticism and the Origins of the New Religious Consciousness by Carl A. Raschke ; hardcover with dust jacket ; The historical tradition of gnosticism has been one of the strangest and least understood threads in the tapestry of philosophy. Gnostics in the past have been caustically critical of established religion, deifying their own minds and ideas, rebellious towards governments that persecuted or ignored them, and proudly aloof from those who could not understand the philosophical subtleties which they cherished. While Gnostic mysticism had some influence on the religious passions of the Middle Ages, it has had little impact on the course of human events since the Industrial Revolution and the Age of Rationalism. Professor Raschke's thesis is that the Gnostic traditions are pacing the new religious consciousness in America.
