some Christians are happy to go outside the canon and some aren't. i definately am, because most Christians actually do in practise whenever they read a modern book or listen to a sermon, but to treat something like the GoT as less worthy of reading than say a reply on this forum by a random person is hard to follow. its an ancient text not something someone wrote 5 minutes ago :)

I've been reading the Gospel of Philip and find it very enjoyable, I need to go over some parts a few times before I can digest them properly.
