I'd never even heard of Gnosticism, but after one of my sources mentioned it I looked into it briefly and discovered they seem to have the same ideas that I figured out on my own.

Just be careful, there are a lot of swindlers and time wasters out there that take advantage of people.

Reminds me of the Black Sabbath/Dio lyrics:

The world is full of kings and queens

Who blind your eyes and steal your dreams

It's heaven and hell, oh well

And they'll tell you black is really white

The moon is just the sun at night

And when you walk in golden halls

You get to keep the gold that falls

It's heaven and hell, oh no

There's a lot of symbology out there that is now utilized by the Cabal, and has been for centuries; millenia, even. There's reasons I come back to the teaching of Jesus, and I suggest getting a good grasps there first if you're new to God. u/sleepydude is giving you excellent advice on this thread.

You can always talk to me if you're lost. I've saved a lot of people from certain doom on that path.
