This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

People rarely comprehend how philsophically tight Christianity fit within 
the 1st century world helping it spread so quickly. The Jews were looking 
for a messiah at the time and Jesus's birth occurred at about time of the 
rising of Pisces. Christians were certainly aware of this. It's hardly 
surprising that gnostic cults would gleefully adopt the Christian mythos--  
much to the chagrin of apostolic Christians.
