Why are midwit Redditors so obsessed with Gnosticism?

>>23626509
Sub-100 IQ. The question was: As you clearly are defensive about Reddit, what is your Reddit username?
>>
>>23626510
"Getting laid" is bad, yes. Casual sex havers burn in hell. Having a wife isn't bad. But it's not the be all end all cosmological telos like Americans make it.

I claimed that gnosticism is 100% solid, without flaw. You claimed that gnosticism was nonsense. I asked you to prove your claim. You don't need to disprove all of a religion. To prove that something isn't 100% solid without flaw, you just need to find one single nonsense to prove the first claim wrong. Does that makes sense for you? Or should I explain it like I would a toddler?

>>23626910
The stories of the Old Testament do not make sense under the assumption that God is good, at least for me, and it looks like a completely different God than Jesus. I read the Nag Hammadi, which are ancient texts supposedly found in 1945 in Egypt, and it presents a version of the story that makes complete sense. Why does Jesus contradict the law that the God from the OT gave all the time? Why did the God from the OT ask Adam "Where are you?" if he is all-knowing? Why did God destroy the Tower of Babel, fearing that humans would reach Him, if he is all-powerful? Why would God be "jealous" when people worship "other gods," if he is the only God in existence? Who is he jealous of? Why did God let His angels descend into the world, rape human women, and generate the Nephilim?
Sorry for so many questions, but it seems like Jesus Christ is a completely different person from this God.
>>
>>23626936
nahh he got you bro lmao
>>
>>23626962
None of the stories make any fucking sense because they're stories written down by men in a book. You know like, Harry Potter or the Iliad. They're not real things that happened.
So there's your proof. My belief system is predicated upon things i can either observe, or logically comprehend in the abstract. Yours is based on reading a fucking fanfic and then going "but which part of this storybook is the real part?"
Don't ever speak about "proof" again.and get off the drugs.

>>
>>23626976
Ok? That might be a good answer if it was what I asked.
Sadly, I asked for proof of "nonsense" inside the story of gnosticism.
And, as you said, you can only prove what you see, but you can't unprove what you can't see.
>>
>>23626981
>controlled the movement of the moon
What? kek
>>
>>23626998
The nonsense part of it is that it's not real. That's what I'm saying. The reason the OT doesn't line up with the NT is because they're both myths, stories, they didn't happen. So that's why there's a mismatch. Thats why its nonsense
>>
>>23627004
read mahabharata jew worshipper it is historic document unlike politic greed lie of Bible or Principia Sophia jesus was a con man and you buy it. you would give your sister to a wild man or jew
>>
>>23627006
You are correct. The OT and the NT doesn't line up at all. But the OT lines up with gnosticism, and the NT lines up with gnosticism, and both at the same time match gnosticism. Even if it isn't real, the story still makes sense under gnosticism, and it doesn't makes sense under modern christianity.

I am not asking if gnosticism is real or not, I am asking if gnosticism makes sense.

To put it in an allegory: I can say "Thomas has only one apple, which is blue". Well, blue apples don't exist, but this story makes sense. If I follow that phrase with "Thomas ate his only apple, which was red" then the story turns nonsensical. But if I reveal that 2000 years ago a guy wrote in the middle "A wizard came and turned the blue apple into a red one", and some organization decided to burn those writings, then the story makes sense again.

people get into gnosticism because they're beginning to develop a sense of spirituality, but since they're from liberal, irreligious backgrounds, they'd rather read 1000 gnostic scriptures and perform occult rituals than just go to church and be beholden to moral laws. for them, that's the hardest thing to do.

That is true.
>>
>>23626556
He wasn't talking about pain and suffering. Some gnostics believe pain is a good sign. He was talking about evil. If you think evil is the same as pain and therefore that evil is somehow good then you might not have thought out your own faith that much
