To be fair, Gnostic ideology did have a place in many, if not most, or even all
groups regarded as dissenters from orthodoxy. But then again, Gnosticism has a place in
orthodoxy as well, for what is gnosis if not the belief that its initiates possess some
esoteric but essential knowledge necessary for salvation, which can neither be explained
nor justified? And what has this discussion thus far exposed, if not the lack of scriptural
foundation for the canon of Trinitarian orthodoxy?
Of the above groups, the Paulicians (whose name possibly derived from their

by Holger Kersten and Elmar R. Gruber, is of particular interest with regard to the subject
of this chapter, for the authors present powerful evidence that whoever was wrapped in
the Shroud of Turin did not die. Kersten and Gruber proposed that the Catholic Church
realized the devastating impact this theory, if true, could have. After all, if the evidence
suggested that Jesus had been wrapped in the shroud but did not die, the church would be
left without a death, without an atoning sacrifice, without a resurrection and, in short, the
church would...
