I too, as a Gnostic Christian, favor the Cathar system.
We do not quite see it the same way.
Instead of helpers, try thinking of how the old Divine Councils worked.
As to your sky father ideas, those are not Cathar or Gnostic Christian.
A sky Father would be up there somewhere while Gnostic...
You believe in a literal King David?
If so, what are your thoughts on God for his 7 day torture and murder of David's baby?
These Jews had to answer that question.
If you watch the whole movie, you will scratch your head at the end and perhaps gain the insight I did from thinking about it...
I still have questions and doubts while recognizing, with work with children, that there is definitely something going on that we have yet to prove is not just telepathy based, which is what I know exists.
Did your archeological information lead to a new discovery or was that discovery made by...
Readers should not put Paul over Jesus.
Jesus is the archetypal good man. Not Paul.
Few have read or remember him but I think the best writer of the ancient Egyptians is Breasted.

That was more of a Jewish tradition than of Christianity. Even Jesus followed that tradition of thinking the old prophets reappeared throughout history.
Jesus asked his disciples, who do they say I am etc., when he entered Jerusalem.

Arranged, I would not agree with as natures works is inadvertent and arranged would have a sentient mind behind it to form a pattern. At least the way I use the term.
For the rest, it is obvious and irrefutable.
Was Socrates looking at the whole world?
I will give you the God part if you are...
If there was an intelligence behind it all, we would not be able to prove it unless that intelligence popped up. Our intelligence tells us that if there was, and it wanted to be relevant to us, it would pop up. Is lack of evidence evidence in and of itself?
I think so.
Like Intelligent Design...
The intelligent position.
As a Gnostic Christian, I too favor nature. I have used the following analogy when speaking to the believers in a supernatural God. God to me is what most see as an ideal.
The ideal God or guide for an ant, is an ant.
The ideal God or guide for a lion, is a lion.
The...
My assertiveness, born from Gnosis and assuredness, does likely read as arrogance. When one thinks and speaks his mind, there is always the chance of insulting. I assume I am speaking to a mind equal to mine that can get past that.
Have you ever seen two scientists speaking together, they often...
Gnosis.
Most of what the bible says meant to be read as allegory or from an esoteric POV.
It is about what happens in your own mind. Almost none of it should be read literally.
I do not see that as a good idea.
What you see is insight, wisdom and Gnosis and mental treasures, so to speak...
I cannot on reincarnation but can give you something to ponder on the evils we must do to evolve.
Eve was correct in eating of the tree of knowledge and rejecting God.
It was God's plan from the beginning to have Adam and Eve eat the forbidden fruit. This can be demonstrated by the fact that...
Being poorly educated, I do my best.
But if you wish to reincarnate and have to seek the shame you did not feel now, even as you know you should, then you will have to in some other life.
In that sense, it applies to reincarnation, while I admit, it is more suited to a religious and political...
Should we put shame on us all? We burden our children.
It is said that all parents hurt their children in some way or another. This is true, inadvertently.
No sane parent plans to intentionally hurt their children. Except, shamefully, in these enlightened times.
We are showing ourselves to be...
Four religious songs keep popping into my head. Warning. I did not view the whole thread.

As a Gnostic Christian, and perpetual seeker of God, defined as the best rules and laws to live by, I am closet to agnostics which the old translation tie to Gnosis, and we follow more the Buddhist saying that if you meet God on the road, kill him.

I happened to see your born again comment.
I am a Gnostic Christian and the following quotes and link will show you how we think being born again or gaining the Christ mind works.
Matthew 6:22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of...
