Gnostic Christians do not believe in a real Yahweh or blood sacrifice of Jesus and the only saving we think we need is from thinking like the immoral literalists who adore a genocidal prick.
Gnostic Christians have no superstitions. We are thinkers, realists and naturalists who use logic and reason, not delusional.
To us, nothing is sacred unless we label it so. The same applies to holy.
Gnostic christians who believe that their superstitions are realistic, natural, logical, or reasonable would not have been the first christians to believe as much, or the first superstitious people to have made that mistake.
Quote:Too general.OFC moral statements aren't exclusive to religions, but it is exclusive to the categorization -as- a religion to contain a moral claim referent to the sacred around which people identify in common. Christ is a title, not a last name. Every christian doesn't have to believe the same things about some fact of god, but to be christian, they must agree with the fact of christ.
Moral tenets are not exclusive to religions and our seem to apply universally. Not surprising given that we are Universalists.
That may not seem consequential to some, but that prevents us from the discrimination without a just cause that Christians perpetrate against half of society.
We assert. We have no enforcement. We leave those tools of inquisitions and jihads to others.

Do you think that it might be the case that there is a better -which is to say more accurate - term for the position you hold, than gnostic christianity?
