Fringe nonsens admixture

edit

It seems the article makes some really really far out claims, such as connecting Father with Brain, Son with Cerebellum and Hyle with Medulla. This doesn't come from hypothetical demented Wikipedia editors but by the author and translator G. R. S. Mead, a notorious and pretty much mythomanical author of lots-a-mental-feces. I propose using his writings with a very critical eye, since otherwise we get anachronistic nonsens like that above. Those anatomical parts of the central nervous system became known in modern times, but their usage only in the 20th century. 2nd century gnostics couldn't know a flyspeck about brain parts and their function, since in antiquity the common belief was that the thinking and feelings came from the heart.
