Re: What is Aryanism opinion on the different forms of Christian

"As far as I know, the only genuine Gnostic church in the US is
Ecclesia Gnostica, but that’s in California. There are also a
few surviving Manichaeans in China, but that would require you
to live in China, and they don’t seem that open to outsiders at
all. Gnosticism is practically dead at the moment, and those who
still carry the torch are completely scattered. I’ve only ever
found other Gnostics online, and they’re even rare online"
I'm willing to relocate to California, but not China. Despite
being a Muhammadan, I come from a Christian background, and I
don't see any conflict between either (I view them as
Zoroastrianic religions, not as "Abrahamic" religions).
I'm also willing to relocate to an Arabic-speaking country as a
Muslim, and may want to revive an authentic form of
Muhammadanism, in sha Allah. Although that could be easily done
in America too.

"gnostic peoples certainly exist in the US but they are yet to
be united. there’s nothing stopping you from holding your own
congregations! people have started churches in their garages
before.
this would be a great project for you, as it could be the base
your community forms around."
I currently live in an apartment but am about to start living in
a van, and when my friend buys a plot of land, I may assist to
start a church on his property.

I think what we really need is to go back to basics. While
joining hypothetical Manichaeans or eclectic Gnostics in
California for religious service sounds tempting, even the best
of the Gnostics have strayed in some way. The prophet Mani is
perhaps my favorite prophet, but I’d hesitate to resurrect
Manichaeism exactly as it was before it went almost extinct,
because the cosmology has too much fluff and some of the minor
beliefs contradict the oneness of God. And as far as the rest of
our community goes, I have a bone to pick with many neo-Gnostics
I’ve gotten to know personally online as well, because we aren’t
in agreement about a surprising amount of things. To cut my
rambling short, we need to start completely from square one, and
focus on promulgating a belief system that emphasizes the two
following things:
1. Absolute dualism. Good and evil must be seen as two entirely
separate, opposing forces. The standard model present in
mainstream Christianity, Islam, and even many of the sects of
India, cannot fly. “Every good tree bears good fruit, but the
bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor
can a bad tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear
good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will
know them by their fruits” - Jesus. To assert that the Devil or
Satan or Brahma comes from God, explicitly goes against this
simple truth. Not even Gnosticism is safe from this fatal error.
Most of the Gnostics I’ve met are monists(!) and not dualists
2. Gnosticism. The material world must have been created by a
bad entity, and the spirit must come from a force of good. God’s
perfection should stress the fact that there’s simply no reason
for us to be here, and the fact that we ARE here instead, must
mean that something has gone fundamentally wrong, and not that
God must have some inexplicable reason for creating the material
world. We aren’t here to learn a lesson. By definition,
separation from perfection can only be a downgrade
That’s it. If I really wanted to, I could even describe the core
tenets in only two sentences. Most of what I wrote above was
just explanatory. This is actually part of the reason for my
website’s existence. I want to cut out all the fluff from
current religious dogmas and start from square one, with a
belief system that even a very young child could understand. It
will also serve as a center for its own sort of activism, though
that’s a separate topic entirely. I should have both a new page
and a new blog post finished and uploaded to my website within
the next day or two, if I’m not hit with major writer’s block

Yes, although as Mani said this world came about as a result of
the mixture of both forces.

We are here to establish the light earth, for that too happen
the good elements of the world need to be definitely separated
from the evil elements so that the Gnostic truth of absolute
dualism is apparent throughout the world. In other words we are
here to wage a great spiritual battle, the prophets of the good
god did say that the good and evil elements in this world would
be separated from there enmeshment at the end of time.

Some very Gnostic sentiments all-around, which also emphasize
human and non-human relationships in this series toward a
greater good. This production in a round-about way almost
depicts the destruction of Yahweh. Worth a watch:
