All Christians do. This is a world of sin and suffering. Eat or be eaten. Original Gnostic, Catholic, orthodox, Protestants, and all the little side cults. They’re all life denying cults of death. The afterlife is their beginning.

Not even true. This life is the main party, the afterlife is the after party.

Gnosticism is not motivated by existential misunderstanding and nausea of the world but rather Gnosticism designates a euphoria that is distant from everything, something so extraordinary that it puts the subject beyond the realm of terrestrial gravity. The gnostic rejects the world because they have discovered the non communicability of Love itself, our souls and the love contained are above the modelling of this world. Look within you will see.

I don't know much about Gnosticism other than its most basic teachings and beliefs, however, why do most Christians here call Gnostics satanists, devil worshippers etc. when Gnosticism is clearly dualistic in nature in its recognition of the Creator of the material Universe as evil and/or chaotic (the Demiurge) as opposed to the immaterial and transcendental divine spark inherent in humans and part of the ultimate divine substance/God (Pleroma)?

In gnosticism, the serpent in the Garden of Eden is seen as a good "savior" figure that frees mankind from the Demiurge's control and brings knowledge. OT God is thought by gnostics to be the evil demiurge. I think it's obvious why that is seen as satanism/demonic. It's not just a heresy or false religion, which is reason enough, but it turns the narrative of the OT upside down.

>> No.19711751

>>19711588
never claimed otherwise. gnostics just take it to the surface make it all more visible
>>19711658
Orthodoxy is definitely the least nihilistic of all Christian confessions but even then in the very passage you quote you can clearly see that the world is 'good' only from Yahweh's perspective, not on its own, and in order to see it as beautiful one must submit to himself to that outside perspective
