Gnostic Christian

Yes. I know. Regards DL

So you cannot explain it. Ok. If you could not get it from his video, what makes you think I will? Regards DL

You are speaking of what Gnostic Christian preach and that Christianity rejected on issues of where god resides. Good for you. Regards DL

Lets see what the brighter people thought and still think of the literal reading of myths. I hope you can see how intelligent the ancients were as compared to the mental trash that modern preachers and theists are using with the literal reading of myths. https://bigthink.com/videos/what-is-god-2-2 Further. http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journal/03132009/watch.html 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. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oR02ciandvg&feature=BFa&list=PLCBF574D Regards DL

I do not have time that I might waste. Was there something you wanted to share? Regards DL

Non-duality? How does that work exactly? Duality, if I can give us an issue to look at, says that the opposite of good is evil or that the opposite of hot is cold. What does non-dualism say to these issues? Just so you know. I do not see Yin and yang as opposites. I see them more as compliments to each other like front and back.n Regards DL

I do not believe, nor did I say I believe that foolishness. Regards DL

As a Gnostic Christian, most Christians think I already have. What god have you discovered? Regards DL

Do you see turning the other cheek as you insulting the hitter the way Jews do? Regards DL

I will let you know when I get it. Neither of us should hold our breath. Regards DL

Humans are great at being mimics, as you say, and for sure, peer pressure and our tribal natures forms our morality. Regards DL

Not emotional bias. My justice and fairness bias, which you do not seen to have, given that your god is a genocidal prick. Regards DL

Your Trinity garbage is irrelevant. This is a moral and legal issue that you are running away from. You are to emulate your god regardless of the stupid Trinity concept. Would you send your child to die for your demand for a bribe or sacrifice? Regards DL

Speaking indicated a discussion or debate to try to show a better moral way. If Christians and Muslims had a moral ideology, they would not have grown with inquisition and jihads. Both religions are fascist, homophobic and misogynous and are garbage ideologies. Regards DL

Not if, like you, one does not already live by the Golden Rule. If you think you should live by the Golden Rule, change the labels in this quote to women, minorities, gays or children being brainwashed by religions and it shows what we should be thinking and doing for each other. "First they came for the Jews, but I did nothing because I'm not a Jew. Then they came for the socialists, but I did nothing because I'm not a socialist. Then they came for the Catholics, but I did nothing because I'm not a Catholic. Finally, they came for me, but by then there was no one left to help me." – Pastor Father Niemoller (1946)” Regards DL

I have claimed apotheosis and already have my Christ consciousness. I place myself above all supernatural imaginary gods. Regards DL

A scriptural lie. Thanks for showing your character. Regards DL

Your genocidal god's blessing is satanic. Keep it to yourself. Regards DL

Correct, for those who hide in the supernatural so as to not face reality. Would you step up to your own demand for a sacrifice or would you send your child. This is a moral question that Christians run from thus showing their poor moral sense. Regards DL

Irrelevant and I see that you too are not comfortable with the conclusion you had to reach and that is why you deflected. Cowards can never be moral. Regards DL

Irrelevant to the question. Thanks for showing your unease with the morals of the genocidal god. Regards DL

I am masking a moral question and many, especially Christians, will deflect as they have a poor moral sense. That may be why you did not speak t9o the O.P. I hope I am wrong. Regards DL

You ignored the issue in the O.P. Do you have a reading comprehension problem or did you just not like your conclusions? Regards DL

It is the ultimate truth. Modern Gnostic Christians name our god "I am", and yes, we do mean ourselves. You are your controller. I am mine. You represent and present whatever mind picture you have of your God or ideal human, and so do I. The name "I Am" you might see as meaning something like, --- I think I have grown up thanks to having forced my apotheosis through Gnosis and meditation. In Gnostic Christianity, we follow the Christian tradition that Christians have forgotten that they are to do. That is, become brethren to Jesus. That is why some say that the only good Christian is a Gnostic Christian. Here is the real way to salvation that Jesus taught. Matthew 6:22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. Romans 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Allan Watts explain those quotes in detail. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alRNbesfXXw&feature=player_embedded Joseph Campbell shows the same esoteric ecumenist idea in this link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGx4IlppSgU The bible just plainly says to put away the things of children. The supernatural and literal reading of myths. Regards DL

Perhaps if you look at god from a different POV. FMPOV, if you seek a supernatural god, you will never find it. Let me give you a piece on why we Gnostic Christians call god I am and mean ourselves.
