worthless shit for humans on earth. the gnostics were and are nothing more than a catch basin for all the people who just won't stay in the mainstream religion. sort of a place to catch and wrangle all the misfits who just don't want to be hylics. far better to create a place for them to end up, a place where you control, than to allow them to establish their own foundations outside your view and control.

gnosticism was especially subservient to jewry back then, lifting most if not all of their esoteric structures from what the jews stole from everyone else, except the gnostics thought they were being super cool and edgy since the jews ran the secret anti-religion, while the hylic religion was whatever the host culture had at the time (christ, pantheon, shinto, tao, etc...) and franklensteined (literally) into a mashup zombie religion to feed back to the dumb masses. in the case of gnosticism, it was a pretend secret religion ran as not a mainstream religion, but also not as a secret anti-religion like jewry, rather it was a "hidden" religion, different than a secret religion. that aspect, especially when juxtaposed against the mysterium tremendum, made for a lifetime of religious mental masturbation to ensure those men were taken out of the gene pool and the threat they posed to mainstream religion doesn't have a chance to take root.

useful idiots, gnostics and all that bullshit.

if it's so gay then how is it allowing Donald Trump to bomb Iran and he's going to get a Nobel Peace prize for it like Obama did for bombing Syria. All browns on media for Iran are Israeli mossad mutts. With the same stupid look

>gnosticism was especially subservient to jewry back then
Source? I really don't see how they could be more any more subservient to jewry than the soon-to-be orthodox Christians, since Gnosticism is in large part Christianity but with more open opposition to many features of Judaism and the standard interpretations of its scripture.

And, to the extent that the heresiologists are correct, it has its roots in the followers of Simon Magus who openly took inspiration from both Jewish and Greek ideas, to the point where, allegedly
>the Simonians were said to venerate Simon under the image of Zeus, and Helena under that of Athena
That doesn't look like taking ideas from the Jews who stole them everyone else. That just looks like taking ideas from everyone.

I don't see Gnosticism as much different than any other Christ-based religion. I think their end goal is essentially the same thing: spread good vibes, live a life, escape materialism.
Then again, there were religious sect splits based on whether Jesus raised two fingers or three, so arguing semantics is intrinsic to religious institutions.

Plotinus destroyed Gnosticism. They never responded. Neoplatonism (and any paganism that uses Neoplatonism) and Conciliar Christianity are the only intellectually serious religions.

Proto version of Mormonism and Scientology in that it tried to piggyback off of Christianities popularity by promising special divine revelation for those in the inner circle only the "divine revelation" is stupid ass garbage that only has the appeal to autists it does now because "EXTINCT MIDDLE EASTERN MYSTICISM THAT THINKS GOD IS EVIL!"

I predict than when normies have finally more or less abandoned Christianity, Some variety of NeoGnostic will remain and may eventually even become the majority among those who still identify as Christians.
