the gnostic gospels, the most prominent body of non-cannonical gospels, are part of the mythological continuum, and are an attempt to reabsorb the historical reality of jesus back into the false wisdom of superspirituality. they are esoteric and difficult to read and understand, and inaccessible to children. they are of a totally different flavour to the synoptics and John, and there exclusion from the N.T is understandable.
