Very interesting stuff in here! I hope you'll keep working on the details. In general scope, this Rosicrucianism sounds like it might be better aligned with Unitarianism, or at least a non-trinitarian Christianity, rather than the much more common trinitarian Christianity. Is the Gospel of Joseph of Arimathaea synonymous with *here*'s Narrative of Joseph of Arimathaea (http://www.pseudepigrapha.com/apocrypha_nt/narjoe.htm) or entirely different? (Some bits of this latter are rather anti-semitic, mind -- I don't know if the Rosicrucians follow suit in that regard or not!) If different, have you devised any passages or longer segments?

: Rosicrucianism indeed is non-trinitarian.  But the Gospel of Joseph of Arimathea is not the same text as the Narrative of Joseph of Arimathea; it is entirely different (the Narrative, after all, is, or I perceive it to be, trinitarian, for instance).  I have not written it yet, though I have some ideas about its contents.  At any rate, the Rosicrucian church is not antisemitic! --[[User:WeepingElf|WeepingElf]] 05:24, 21 April 2013 (PDT)

Very interesting stuff in here! I hope you'll keep working on the details. In general scope, this Rosicrucianism sounds like it might be better aligned with Unitarianism, or at least a non-trinitarian Christianity, rather than the much more common trinitarian Christianity. Is the Gospel of Joseph of Arimathaea synonymous with *here*'s Narrative of Joseph of Arimathaea (http://www.pseudepigrapha.com/apocrypha_nt/narjoe.htm) or entirely different? (Some bits of this latter are rather anti-semitic, mind -- I don't know if the Rosicrucians follow suit in that regard or not!) If different, have you devised any passages or longer segments?

Rosicrucianism indeed is non-trinitarian. But the Gospel of Joseph of Arimathea is not the same text as the Narrative of Joseph of Arimathea; it is entirely different (the Narrative, after all, is, or I perceive it to be, trinitarian, for instance). I have not written it yet, though I have some ideas about its contents. At any rate, the Rosicrucian church is not antisemitic! --WeepingElf 05:24, 21 April 2013 (PDT)
