How would he deal with the emerging Chinese threat?

Guys I'm getting egged on by a friend from college for my believes. Every time I try to proof the reality of the Christian faith he comes up with some witty shit about the flying spaghetti monster.
What are good arguments for Christianity that cannot be countered with this bullshit?

Does it even mean anything when someone from contemporary times say they are a "Gnostic"?

Didn't all those mystery cults die out long ago? How can you continue that?

Bump for similar question

Also, Demiurge explained too?

>>2748059
>>2748196
They're generally perceived as modern day attempts to revive the doctrines. Just because the philosophies died out doesn't mean they can't be reconstituted.

If you have any questions about gnosticism I can probably answer them.

>>2748059
>Does it even mean anything when someone from contemporary times say they are a "Gnostic"?
Technically speaking, yes it does mean something.

Functionally though most people I see commenting on Gnosticism apply their own concepts picked up from /fringe/ memes and/or /pol/ and apply them to the wide and diverse array of Gnostic thought and sects.

>Didn't all those mystery cults die out long ago?
Sorta, depends on what you mean and what your litmus for Gnosticism is. On a weak metric everything from the Oriental churches to early modern Antinomian cults are Gnostic, but on a tough metric it did indeed die with the Cathars.

That said we still have the source texts and many groups run with 'em.

>>2748196
Demiurge has a lot of connotations across systems. Some take the Neoplatonic view that he's more or less benevolent. Others take a slightly less optimistic approach and post that he's repentant but incompetent (Valentinians).

Still others think it's what you usually think of; YHVH is actually evil incarnate and wants to trap us in a realm of hellish matter.

So it really depends on the group in question.

I've an extensive Gnostic folder over in the /omg/ library.

Did ancient people ever uncover dinosaur fossils before the first Megalosaurus and Iguanodon were discovered?

If so, were these the inspiration for stories of dragons found throughout the world?

>>2747767
Men lived with dinosaurs. They just didn't call them dinosaurs because the word dinosaur wasn't coined until the 19th century AD.

They called them dragons, and serpents, and winged serpents, and basically sea monsters.
>>
>>2747767
There is a theory that ice-age era creatures encountered by humans became legendary monsters such as a dragon.
>>
>>2747786
This seems much more likely
Unfortunately OP, it's hard to know anything if at all about the origins of such a thing like dragons
Because it's literally before history.
