Why Christians should be Gnostic Christians and gain a decent moral sense.
Posted: Sun Nov 01, 2020 9:23 pm
I have been asked to open a Gnostic Christian post. I do so with pleasure.
Catholics and other Christians should be Gnostic Christians because Gnostic Christians recognize that Yahweh is a failure as a god and is more evil than good.
Christians end in calling evil good, and that is not a good sign of decent moral values.
Christian morals have been demonstrably corrupted, while Gnostic Christian morals have led our more universalist secular thinking towards a better world. Laïcité being the present epitome of this.
If you wish a low moral bar, go Christian. They love a genocidal god.
If your bar of excellence has already surpassed honoring genocide and substitutional punishment, like the Christians do, you are already above Christian standards.
If you are religiously inclined, morally speaking, Gnostic Christianity is for you.
We are not moral cowards, nor do we fear calling a vile Yahweh, a vile satanic god, the way Christians fear.
We have created all of our gods and it is to them to meet our moral standards, and when they do not, the way Yahweh fails to do, rejection is the only decent moral choice.

While here, let me show why/how we think better than Christians about reality.
Basically, our Gnostic Christian logos against Christian mythos.
Let me speak to the lie of Gnostic Christians hating matter.
I wrote this to refute the false notion that Gnostic Christians do not like matter and reality that the inquisitors propagated to justify their many murders of my religions originators. It shows that Christians should actually hate matter and not Gnostic Christians.
The Christian reality.
1 John 2:15Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
Gen 3; 17 Thou shalt not eat of it; cursed is the ground for thy sake; in toil shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life.

The Gnostic Christian reality.
Gnostic Christian Jesus said, "Those who seek should not stop seeking until they find. When they find, they will be disturbed. When they are disturbed, they will marvel, and will reign over all.
[And after they have reigned they will rest.]"
"If those who attract you say, 'See, the Kingdom is in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will precede you.
If they say to you, 'It is under the earth,' then the fish of the sea will precede you.
Rather, the Kingdom of God is inside of you, and it is outside of you.
[Those who] become acquainted with [themselves] will find it; [and when you] become acquainted with yourselves, [you will understand that] it is you who are the sons of the living Father.
But if you will not know yourselves, you dwell in poverty and it is you who are that poverty."
As you can see from that quote, if we see God's kingdom all around us and inside of us, we cannot think that the world is anything but evolving perfection. Most just don't see it and live in poverty. Let me try to make you see the world the way I do.
Here is a mind exercise. Tell me what you see when you look around. The best that can possibly be, given our past history, or an ugly and imperfect world?
Candide.
"It is demonstrable that things cannot be otherwise than as they are; for as all things have been created for some end, they must necessarily be created for the best end.”
That means that we live in the best of all possible worlds, because it is the only possible world, given all the conditions at hand and the history that got us here. That is an irrefutable statement given entropy and the anthropic principle.
