There doesn't appear to be any reason for this group to be termed Gnostic. The main thing they had in common was social, not religious -- opposition to the rich (be they secular or religious). They denounced marraige, which the Paulicians accepted. The group denied the immortality of the soul, some were even atheists, which is kind of hard to do while holding to a Christian and/or Gnostic worldview. As such, I am removing this from the Gnosticism category, and taking away the Gnosticism template. Gnostic and heresy aren't interchangable, there's plenty of heresy outside of Gnosticism (and if we consider Clement of Alexandria, it's possible to argue that Gnosticism and heresy are distinct but with a great deal of overlap).
