Meetups.com might have a gnostic group near you too.
I am a Gnostic myself, mostly because I was raised in a Valentinian(Demiurge isn't evil but misguided) family.
This thing is basically Abrahamaic faith with DLCs, where YHWH isn't even God (the Monad) but the Demiurge, which is the aborted spawn of Sophia, the lowest Aeon and Aeon of Wisdom.
But honestly there are many different gnostic cults, a Valentinian doesn't believe exactly the same than a Sethian, etc.

By the way, Jesus is another Aeon in Gnosticism, he did come to try to give us Gnosis.
About where to learn about this... you did read Nag Hammadi at least don't you?

>Satan created the material universe.
>God put us inside his universe to infiltrate it.
This is exactly the reason Satan hates us and wants us all dead.

Yahweh never was the most high God, the most high God was El Elyon. Yahweh gave birth to man, Enki, Enlil, Allah, etc. El Elyon gave birth to Jesus and Yahweh.
Jesus is the son/sun of El Elyon, not Yahweh.
This explains the disparity between the gods of the Old Testament and the New Testament
