Thread: Only man is fit to be God.

@Gnostic, I'm really fascinated by what you've been revealing about gnostic religion. It seems to be far and away the most common-sense, straightforward, and intelligent take on religion I could imagine, without any of the silly stories or easily falsifiable proclamations that trip up other religions. None of the double standard morality. A religion that can be taken seriously in the modern world, where science unfortunately has eviscerated any other type of religion, causing a great deal of cognitive dissonance among the followers and spurring Nietzsche's declaration that God is dead. One thing you haven't covered is what God is, does or did. Though I suspect that's unfathomable, as it probably should be in any religion. Do Gnostics believe God created the universe? Do they believe in any kind of afterlife? Or are these also unfathomable mysteries?
