I do.
Fact is, they are a product of myth to the intelligent and a product of worthy religions to the less intelligent and delusional.

I'm still not seeing any argument or evidence in support of the notion that human beings have stopped inventing gods.
And there are some arenas and populations in which an apparent need for some kind of spiritual recognition and even formal worship - however organized and named etc - is becoming obvious. Agriculture and power production in Western societies, for example, badly need formalization of the "should" aspects of what they "could" do.
but gods is not a spiritual thing , to Humanity.
Sure I understand how counter intuitive this may seem . We have had god(s) for thousands of years ; back to the Sumerians .
What we Humans have lost or really forgotten is our own Spirituality ; Human Spirituality .
Thats your opinion still. Imo, intelligence is the only one capable of lying.
And then we would hire a sin-eater to purge the dying criminal of his sins.There was a time when a person could make atonement for anther. Have the words noble righteousness ever occurred to you? You are not good enough to atone for your own sins and you will surely die in them without faith in Christ..

In what sense are you using the word Christian here?... “Gnostic Christian”. By using that word your seeking attention, is that right? There's a lot of baggage with using a god connected word. Are you one of those that like to talk on and on about gods and such things? And that word is your hook?but will stick to calling myself a Gnostic Christian.

Hmm.
Children know different. They often lie before becoming intelligent.
Don't you remember?

By that logic God himself would not be fit for heaven. I agree.As Ingersoll said; 'no man would be fit for heaven who would consent that an innocent person should suffer for his sin.'

Free thinkers?? And yet, these ''free thinkers'' like to be in a religion?There are Gnostic of all religions. All who are free thinkers, and not idol worshipers, who question their own theology, can be said to be Gnostic.
Get rid of the religious baggage, you can still ''fight their ideologies''. See above.My birth was in a Catholic/Christian tradition and that makes me a Gnostic Christian.
Yes, and you like to trail your christian tag as you do that. What's wrong with plain old humanism?I am in a discussion and debate forum. Of course I seek attention.
Yes, and you need the christian tag for that??? humanism.I prefer to focus on morals as that is what is important about a theology or philosophy and not the source, be it a god or a man.
Uh, what?All who are free thinkers, and not idol worshipers, who question their own theology, can be said to be Gnostic.
There was never a time when this was a moral proposition.There was a time when a person could make atonement for anther.
