RE: Saints of the Gnostic Mass
Totally agree about "Sumer."
I would definitely add Hypatia of Alexandria. Good to see Diotima on there. How about Socrates, Plato, Iamblichus, etc.? And I have some modern ones:
Israel Regardie
Cris Monnastre
Lon Milo Duquette
Chic Cicero
Tabatha Cicero
Carroll "Poke" Runyon
Christopher Warnock
John Michael Greer
Nigel Jackson
Stephen Skinner
Unless you have some information to which I am not privy, Lon Milo still lives. I don't actually know all the other names you list so can't exactly comment. ;)
I have no problem with canonizing the living. Cris Monnastre was the last actual GD lineage-holder as of the 1970's; she died a few days ago. Her successors were Poke Runyon, Davis Griffen the Asshole, and maybe some others. I'm having a hard time believing you don't know ALL of the others, but you can Google them, I am pretty sure.
Fair enough. I had heard the name Poke Runyon, but didn't really know who they were. GD stuff was never really my thing. When I said 'I don't know them all' I didn't mean 'I don't know any'. I meant, ' I know sumbunall the others'. I also meant I didn't know enough about them to state if any might still be living. Obviously I had heard of Regardie, even have one of his books. Or Dana does. The name Nigel Jackson rings a bell, I probably read a vampire book of his a while back.
