Part two of "Secret Quest I" is an expansive and eye opening examination of the repression these Gnostics faced from a religious regime whose theology sanctioned the murder of dissenters. Despite their continued persecution, the Gnostics continued to emerge and strive, as individuals made efforts to seek knowledge and enlightenment."Secret Quest I" is one episode in a series of documentaries on Christian Gnosticism, which are all part of a free series presented by The Gnostic Movement.
