Forum rules say videos should support arguments, not replace them. I'm at work and can't watch. Could you please write out the actual argument?
I always viewed gnosticism as Christianity's Bizarro World. Down is up and up is down. It did not take much imagination to come up with it.
Your link speaks of not going extra biblical, which seems to mean to not go out or away from the Christian myths to gain or grow our knowledge and wisdom, which is refuted by scriptures that say that to perfect our wisdom, we are to go extra biblical. Do you believe your link or do you believe these quotes? Hebrews 6 K J V; 1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, 2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

Some think Gnostic Christians are anti-Christ, but that is false in certain senses. Gnostic Christians see more than on Jesus in scriptures. We see an eastrn mystic type that we quote and use. We also see a Rome created pacifist wimp and that is the Jesus you know. His morals are basically quite poor and that is why we reject him. That Jesus promotes a no-divorce and a substitutionary punishment policies which are definitely immoral. Care to argue morals? I almost hate to ask that question of theists as they always run for the hills. There are good reasons why Christianity used inquisitions to grow, as they could not deal with the poor morals that they were trying to sell. Will you run for the hills? Regards DL
The author seems to resent the fact that people are choosing Gnostic Christianity over Christianity by persuasion. Christianity grew itself by using inquisitions and murder. Do you think that that is a better way to grow than the persuasion that Gnostic Christianity is using? Regards DL
I agree that links should bolster what a poster says and not be put as the posters full O.P. Regards DL
I agree to some extent, but do not see a problem as Christians have ended in the idol worship of a demonstrably vile and immoral Yahweh, while Gnostic Christians have rejected Yahweh as Good. Why would you have Gnostic Christians also adore a genocidal son murdering God? Regards DL
No, We are perpetual seekers. As esoteric ecumenists, we cannot idolize any God or ideology. It is against our religion. We also do not have any supernatural beliefs and do not literally believe in any of the mythical biblical characters. All that aside. If I were to believe in Satan and Yahweh, I would think, because of the murders assigned to each, that Satan is more moral than the genocidal God. Would you agree with that or do you think Yahweh is more moreal even though he is a genocidal son murdering God? Regards DL
I will not bother since you are not able to answer simple moral questions and give such stupid B.S. and lying answers. Regards DL
