gnostic faith has quite interesting ideas, it kind of makes a lot of sense too imo. its also a bit concerning about some things. I also heard it would have been the mainline christianity at some point but then something happened and it was branded heresy and we got the current one instead.

Have a look into cather and bogomilists. The “kristijani” and waldenser are also very interesting with their theologie!

those are indeed quite interesting. i’m also not impressed with the church for branding them heretics. the religious reasons provided seem more like excuses to cover secular reasons they wanted to silence these.
some of these seem quite apt for modern day too, as a resistance to how things are.
and ironically one could likely draw more people in by openly declaring yourself as a heretic if you wanted to revive these 😆
