What are your thoughts on the following article?

I know that some Mormons actually encourage the study of the Nag Hammadi library, but they don't agree with the more extreme Gnostic interpretations of Genesis.
It seems interesting to think that Smith might have been working with Gnostic concepts of the divine. In reading the book of Mormon, I have found so far that it is compatible with New Thought Principles, which are sometimes Gnostic.
