Good point. There's so much more out there. Mainline American Christianity is the McDonalds of religion. May I ask if gnostics still believe in the divinity of Christ, in the resurrection and other miracles, etc.?

FYI: 30-seconds after I posted this my cell rang with the last two-digits 77...This has been a consistent phenomenon since I put up www.andrewmarkmusic.com in late Nov. 2016 just after Trumps win. And you guessed it, the first call I got for work in Jan. 2017 was at the Trump Tower (they had the audacity to ticket my van, too)...So, someone is up to a lot of shenanigans on this earth but it's all being done with technology and not via supernaturalism; although there seems to be, IMO., an MKUltra element to this as many of the coincidences I'm experiencing are entirely of the mind--and 'they' are reading my mind somehow--but it would be entirely speculative on my part as to how it is being done.
There are many schools of Gnosticism which I believe to be the oldest spiritual traditions on the earth. Two schools primarily: various nondual schools like Kaballah, and Dualist schools which I lean towards which view a clear schism between this earth, humanity and whatever eternal Godhead is...
I can't speak for other Gnostics but the Kristos is the first Aeon and wasn't killed on the cross (an impossibility)...I've never experienced a supernatural miracle and don't believe that aspect of religion.
My preference is to frame the idea as interdimensional and not supernatural. Watch Sagan's two-dimensional beings vid. if you haven't already..
The extent to which these hyperdimensional entities interact with us is speculative but they don't appear to be using 'supernatural' means: they appear to be using technology and can also take human form.
I know it sounds wacky from an entirely materialist rational point of view:)
Yet...
Yet with a couple grams of mushrooms it probably starts to make sense.
Now you're talking Richard Feynman:)
Okay, this is a little more to your liking:
I did become a theist as a direct result of entheogens although clearly not everyone who tries these chemicals becomes a wacky theist:D

No, it's cool, the same thing happened to me. We just had very different experiences apparently.
