Thread Hijack - faith or not

The topic is about sin(Christianity) and the important thing to remember is that Valentinian theology was seriously followed by Valentinian Christians in Egypt thousands of years of ago. That's what is important for me not what majority of the people in today's world believe in and decide what should be socially accepted and what not to.

Valentinian concept of sin

"In conclusion, Valentinians are closer to the mainstream of Christianity than is often assumed to be the case. The evidence supports the conclusion by Desjardins (1990, page 116) that the Valentinians were "Christians who took sacraments quite seriously, who took to heart Matthew's Sermon on the Mount, and were deeply concerned about not committing sins". It might further be added that there is certainly some truth to their own claims that their theology was derived from Saint Paul."
