Peter Junger wrote: "Maybe the present-day Christian Gospels are the corruption of some G[nostic] text[s]. Which raises the question of whether Q = G." There are two problems with this suggestion. First, the sayings from the Synoptics that are considered to be from Q are not gnostic. Second, as far as I know, there is little evidence for Gnosticism at this early a date.
