Is Gnosticism red pilled?

Is Gnosticism red pilled?

Its moral escapism for pathetic people

Unironically with Its esoteric and exclusive nature

How do you figure?

I find it humorous how Christians completely deny that there was a secondary popular cult of Christ with a radical belief system that actually makes a lot of sense with what Jesus taught if you exclude the mythology. Not to mention that St. John stole from a Gnostic vision to form his own revelation in the Bible.

On the JQ, yes, but then it proposes a retarded solution: let's become vegetarian and stop having children to escape this universe.

yes

at last i truly see

Gnosticism existed before chriztianity. Gnosticism is just corrupted pithagorism. Christian gnosticism is just pithagorism+jesus

Too edgy for Neo-Platonism? too vain to admit your mediocrity? step right up! here are the keys to hidden knowledge. With us, your delusions of superiority will be vindicated as you learn the REAL truth. It doesn't matter that you dropped out of high school because you can always hide from your ignorance by professing to have access to hidden knowledge. You SEE while those intelligent, wealthy, neurotypical people you're jealous of are BLIND. Leave them in their ignorance, initiate, because you will soon be content in your transcendent superiority. Join us, join the clique of schizos, egomaniacs, and closet homosexuals. We will show you the hidden doctrine of tedious mystical bullshit which has the depth and clarity of a muddy puddle. You will learn the secrets of the cross (it's a metafor, but don't tell *them* that), and how to easily dismiss reason and evidence with smug retorts such as "muh moderns...", "muh metaphysics...", and "muh reign of quantity..." If you'll swallow the "mystery of faith" then you can swallow anything, which is why our initiates replenish their masculine energies by licking up their own semen after they wank. See you on the astral plane, initiate, and remember: you can always rationalise nonsense with nonsensical twaddle.

Praise λόγος!

Greece was a mistake.

Actually to live a trancendent life means discipline and practicing most of what jesus taught such as turning a cheek. It is more about a path to a ''self'' you didn't know. To fall in love with creation and seeing everything for what it is.
Ofcourse it attracts people from all walks of life, some more serious than others. But to accomplish such as Buddha, Jesus, Shiva, Krishna did will take everything you have and more.

Jesus didn't say, in the world but not of it for no reason. As far as transcendence goes, you're here and this is where you start. This moment, this planet. It's not about escapism, it's about confrontation but on another level. Escapism doesn't work with transcedence, it's called transcendence for a reason not escape your problem. RISE ABOVE IT.

I sure didn't see jesus walk out even when he knew he was betrayed. There are allot of mystics who faced torture and ridicule only to swear by their heart that they had discovered it.
They didn't walk away instead often faced the most gruesome suffering humanity had to offer for them.

Jesus told Judas to betray him

Is Gnosticism falsifiable in any way or is it faith and authority-dependent like every other religion? What experiment (spiritual or otherwise) could I conduct what would either validate or prove wrong the claims of Gnosticism?

gnosticism is the "just b urself" of philosophy

You need to read Huxley and God. He talks about testing the claims of mysticism by leading a pure life and meditating properly, but I don't think anyone has taking him up on the offer.

Some forms of excessively dualistic and anti-material gnosticism are just pure autism, but hermetism in general is based.

IF IT COMES IN "PILL" FORM, IT IS NOT GNOSIS; IF YOU NEED A "PILL", YOU ARE IGNORANT.

ALSO, PERSONS SHOULD STOP USING THAT AESTHETIC AND SEMIOTIC ABOMINATION OF AN IMAGE WHENEVER POSTING REGARDING GNOSTICISM.

1. DEFINE "EXCESSIVELY DUALISTIC".

2. YOU IGNORE WHAT AUTISM, AND THE FACT THAT YOU USE "AUTISM" AS A DEROGATORY TERM EVINCES YOUR IGNOBILITY

3. HERMETICISM IS NOT A GNOSTIC DOCTRINE; HERMETICISM IS A DEMONIC DOCTRINE THAT IS A VIRTUAL APOLOGY FOR IALDABAOTH, SO, THE FACT THAT YOU ATTACHED AN IMAGE OF IALDABAOTH, THE DEMIOURGOS, TO YOUR POST, IS CONSISTENT WITH YOUR AFFINITY TOWARD HERMETICISM.


YOU ARE THE OPPOSITE OF A GNOSTIC —YOU ARE IGNORANT.

>2. YOU IGNORE WHAT AUTISM [IS]...
