Another way to look at the Judas incident is like this:

The Gnostics viewed death as a liberation.

To better understand what I have just said, Recall the Judas Scroll and let's play an imagination game.

Imagine you were sent back two thousand years ago and sitting across the table from a bishop. This bishop tells you that you will be assigned to a town to oversee the flock. The bishop instructs you to weed out the Gnostics from the true believers.

You go to your town where there awaits a huge crowd welcoming you. You get a head rush out of the welcoming party. Remembering the bishop's instructions you ask the crowd to raise their hands if they believe in Jesus. Everyone raises their hands. Happy with what you see, you are sastisfied that everything is okay.

A year later the bishop stops by your town and asks you if you weeded out the Gnostics. You tell the bishop that you have observed your flock over the year and from what you can see there are no Gnostics.

The bishop takes a deep breath and then tells you: Such persons(Gnostics) are, to outward appearances, sheep, for they seem to be like us, from what they say in public, repeating the same words of confession that we do, but inwardly they are wolves.

Be honest, wouldn't you feel a little pissed off after hearing what the bishop just told you? What the bishop is telling you is that you've been clowned.

Let's switch point of view, you are now the Gnostic. How would you feel mingling with a crowd of Christians knowing that if they were ever to find out that you are a Gnostic, they could very well get pissed off and kill you. Especially if everyone in the Christian Community for the past year has been doing the for "he's a jolly good fellow" number on you, because you have prayed, sang, and for all outward appearances looked to be a model Christian. It's bad enough that a priest might feel like he's been clowned, but for a whole Christian Community to feel that way.

To a Gnostic it wouldn't matter if you were a Jew or a Christian you're going to be clowned all the same because both Christians and Jews bows to the Israel creator God aka as the lesser God.

Why did the Gnostics do this covert act? Does the Judas Scroll provide for us a clue as to why?

The Judas Scroll is powerful because it may be the clue as to why the Gnostics went covert. All it takes is a Judas to out you and you are a goner. But the ones that takes your lights out are the minions of the Israel creator God aka the lesser god. There is a deep meaning in this.

To understand the deeper meaning we have to look into the meaning of death between the minions of the lesser god and the Gnostics. The Israel creator God views death as a punishment. The Gnostics on the other hand sees death as a liberation.

Jesus on the cross was not being punished, he was being liberated.

Christians, Jews, Jews, Christians, these labels don't matter what matters is they all bow to the Israel creator God and hence they are all the same which is to say they are all minions of the lesser god. And as minions they feel forced to put to death the Gnostics for the crime of clowining them.

Did the Gnostics go extinct because they did the same thing Jesus did in the Judas scroll?

A warning to those whom are practicing the religion of Islam, you never know who amongst your followers is really thinking in the back of his or her mind that Allah is the lesser god.
During the crusades the Chrstains killed everyone in the Gonostic camp, they lived in an isolated community and crusade reports stated they were all "walking around naked". (beleif that trying to hide from God behind a fig leaf is wrong). The Gonostics thought that Jesus was teaching that this world is an evil place and that it was ruled over by Satan (the fallen angel). And that heaven is the good kingdom that is ruled over by Jesus (God). They thought that the souls dwelled as innocent children in heaven but due to sex they get transferred here to this evil world - born into sin. To save the unborn souls from Satan's world they banded reproductive sex. They also had a ritual where they would have alternitive sex and then they would hold the sperm up to the sky and offer the soul back to its rightful place in the heavens above. The soul would then evaporate and rise towards the heavens. By saving unborn souls that way they would earn the right to go to heaven upon death.

When the crusaders came along and saw them doing such rituals they freaked out and killed the whole flock.
