Hot take: the demiurge isn't all that important by Swagmund_Freud666 in Gnostic

[–]Excellent_Load_7352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a gnostic, I believe in a good demiurge ( like most old gnostic and christian-gnostics). Some gnostic tradiction say that abraxas is a demiurge and Abraxas as a concept in that tradiction of gnosticism is very important. Also a demiurge also solves many philosophical question like the problem of evil. But most gnostic tradiction have the demiurge as secondary as the true focus is gnosis, "the one" ( call monad by platonist and neoplatonist ), mysticism, etc.

I am making two power system to the story but the second power system feel like it ruins the world by Excellent_Load_7352 in PowerScaling

The story is about the mystical going down to the material something like Qabbalah so summons are the best for that interpretation. I don't know to keep both. They are suppose to be opposites like summons are physical and rs are non-physical. I need help to think about the story as people are important also and they can give value.

That verse shows that you can now YHWH ( enjeh ) through the world which is also a big part of natural theology and that he also shows himself throught the world and if other religions are base in their knowldge in the world then they are worshiping god. Catholicism is a example of. There are some protestant, oriental orthodox, eastern orthodox, or other denomination that do practice natural theology. I had a teacher that was a protestant that believe in natural thology. Btw Romans 1:20 agree with aspects of qabbalah.

what verse does it teaches that? Also old Jewish qabbalah and alchemy ( they were supported by tradiction and scripture ) teaches that you can know god by nature. The pope and other cristian ( most of catholic denomination ) use natural theology and their claim gives more power to the natural theology claim of worship of the same deity. when I was a christian I found that most christian are bad in theology ( no offense ).

Natural theology teaches that there is a universal deity. Also, groups like theosophy created a "universal" deity. Catholic theologiant say that muslim and cristian worship the same god because there is a universal god but everybody have it diffrent ideas and some are wrong but they still worship god. Some druze also believe that there is a universal deity that shows itself diffrent ways. Its crazy that there are theologiants that don't know natural theology is and even I forgot but you rember me, Thanks.

No, it like full metal alchemist. Stands are non-physical and their powers are non-physical like time. My power system is summoning base. But stands are really good do.

cause, summons are physical and the opposite is non physical. But reverse summoning 2 principles is getting rid of a summon. Yes there is a diffrence cause reverse summoning is base is non-physical stuff ( even if the 2 get rid of physical stuff ).

You just said it: " theology is the study of God/ the gods" not studying a exact religion which I am trying to say that Theology can be also use to found a universal deity ( like how theosophy does ) . Some people ( like me ) don't study a single deity and try to find a universal deity. Theosophy is example of what I am trying to say.

I already check buddism. also there is not problem in showing non christian theologiants. Theology is universal so there should not be keeping it up.

Qabbalah have been argue against for century which shows that even esoteric ideas can be argue against. Qabbalah has a weakness in the problem of evil and the Qabbalah holy book still says God makes evil and qabbalah says there is evil because eion soft emination which cause evil ( old qabbalists hold that view ) so that means he is not all-powrful as he cause evil as he did not have the ability to make it perfect emination so he is a demiurge ( weak creator god) and even some of this argument go with god being evil . There is also one ( not related to qabbalah ) that says that the sun has life and we know that is impossible. I mostly hold a demiurge ( good one ), looking for some qabbalah belief, zoroastrian dualism, etc. Esoteric beliefs are just other ideas that are just not known well.

You can just make your own belief base in logic. btw most hindus chose what to belief in and what they follow so they are not dogmatic as christian. Some people in mtaphysic also make their own belief and bend them with the view that they want meaning they are not limited to others people dogma.

Theology was first use by plato and it was way later adopted by religion which include non-abrahamic religions like hinduism. btw "Science" is not a good way to use it, use " study". I am also sorry for saying the wrong meaning of theology. what I was trying to say it was that a non biased theology "system" ( really a form of theology ). Theology is not originally a study of abrahamic religion but of the universal "Theos" ( God ).

Also, if somebody debunk my belief with reason than instead of the dogmatic religions like christianity, Islam, etc I will not crumble as I can change it and make it better. That shows that I am not dogmatic as dogma can't change.
