I see we are a bunch of zealots believing the same thing at the base of the Tower of Babel speaking foreign languages to each other. Gnostic I guess you are Orthodox Christian like other intelligentsia friends of mine. Dah? Kremlin was a fun place to play til Snowden showed up on 666. June 6 2013 you can see the math right? <><

Google Gnostic Christian and Orthodox Christian and let me know if any of the descriptions match.

This is what it said.

In the Gnostic Christian tradition, Christ is seen as a divine being which has taken human form in order to lead humanity back to the Light. ... For centuries, most scholarly knowledge of Gnosticism was limited to the anti-heretical writings of orthodox Christian figures such as Irenaeus of Lyons and Hippolytus of Rome.

That is not quite true.

We have always seen Jesus as a myth about an esoteric shamanistic teacher.

That is why we quote his third eye, or single eye and pineal gland quotes.

The link at the end of this on nthe literal reading of myths explain our view in detail.

I hope you can see how intelligent the ancients were as compared to the mental efforts that modern preachers and theists are using with the literal reading of myths.

What is God?

Rabbi Hillel, the older contemporary of Jesus, said that when asked to sum up the whole of Jewish teaching, while he stood on one leg, said, "The Golden Rule. That which is hateful to you, do not do to your neighbor. That is the Torah. And everything else is only commentary. Now, go and study it."

Please listen as to what is said about the literal reading of myths.

"Origen, the great second or third century Greek commentator on the Bible said that it is absolutely impossible to take these texts literally. You simply cannot do so. And he said, "God has put these sort of conundrums and paradoxes in so that we are forced to seek a deeper meaning."

Matt 7;12 So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.

This is how early Gnostic Christians view the transition from reading myths properly to destructive literal reading and idol worship.

Well I guess Jesus was Melchizedek reincarnated only to be incarnated again and again thru each age of the world? Do you think a persons name has any defined meaning? Do you think Gnostic means anything simply because it’s in a book your reality calls a dictionary? My name is Richard. It’s defined as a powerful ruler. I’m not Jesus, defined as savior, nor am I a myth. Should I attempt to live up to my defined name and rule the world above all men?

You are basically asking, --- Should you let your instincts to be the fittest push you to be the fittest human you can be?

Yes.

You profess to be a Christian and follower of Jesus, and he did just that, while checking who he sounded like of the older prophets.

If you have read your bible you will remember where he asked his disciples, who do they say I am.

It was the Jewish tradition to think that the spirits of the dead prophets re-emerged into new Jews. Almost like the Daly Lama.

That is partially why they wrote their prophets wisdom sayings and were knows as the people of the book. That last point is speculation but the rest is recorded history.

Some speak of Paul Serge in history outside the book of Acts 13:7. Possibly in France with Mary Magdalene and supposedly Jesus, being rescued by Sergius before dying as most of the audience had left the crucifixion site thinking there was no hope. Jesus dies of old age in South of France just as Hitler died of old age in Argentina. Gotta love doppelgängers. They really can save your life. I think even Begin in Israel or another had a fake assassination. So if I use my name to rule the world what would be my first steps? I’ve already been in war, I have an MBA, been in more churches than the Pope. What’s next on my list?

--Your posts are strange. They're almost more like journal entries than questions or even statements about specific topics...I'm bored, though, so I'm gonna' response all the same X D
--A lot of countries have nukes, indeed, and some of those countries strongly identify with particular religious belief systems, yeah...
--The major religions throughout the world are for the moment co-existing for the most part, too. However, there are deep, dark and downright destructive rivalries embedded between many religions, and really...it's only a matter of time before they come to the surface in a big way.
--Religion, like everything else, is only one aspect of things, though...You have culture, economics, geo-political tensions, etc...so whenever one thing gets out of balance...Well, it's all really a balance of power, isn't it? The people or countries doing the best are fine letting others do whatever they want, so long as the others aren't powerful enough to seriously disrupt anything. The moment something starts to go off kilter, though, i.e. an economic recession/depression, natural disaster, etc...then things have the potential to get outta' hand fast.
--...It's too late to be coherent X D
--...These religious people hate each other, really, because they all claim to have all the answers, not only about the world and the future but how people should behave. Therefore you can't have peace because if people are going against the teachings of a religion it can cause massive disruption. Therefore...when the circumstances are right--whether really good or really bad--religious fanatics will take the opportunities they have to try and eliminate all the others.
--And that's exactly how it should be...cause it's all real man. It's not just people fighting about imaginary things...they're fighting about the truth beneath all things.
--So yeah...People are gonna' continue to cause havoc and blow the hell outta' each other for ever more, and religious beliefs are gonna' be a big part of that.
--Does any of that make sense? Pretty sure it does, but it's also 2 A.M. and I should be working on projects right now X D

Religion by definition is based off the word faith which is the opposite of proof. therefore religion is being determined a truth of all things for no reason. Its just brainwashed people because a 2000 year old book that is just a book does not prove its contents true logically and cannot be verified for accuracy.

Word definitions are subjective but based off my observations and what I think others think x words are defined as, most people blindly belief x is true because of the ways their brains became hardwired to not question.

 

[SergiusPaulus]

2000 years old? I thought it was 1611. Plus plenty of other religions before that book. Religion has been around a lot longer than the Moses story. I’m told India created religion.

 

[Gnostic Christian]

I will disagree here. I think the bible has been verified for accuracy and it failed.

Archeology has basically killed the bible by finding many errors and talking serpents and donkeys have yet to be found so all in physical sciences have also killed it.

All moral students will also scrap the bible in terms of finding a moral Yahweh in it.

Three areas that I think refute your statement.
