Gnosticism
A Christian religious system holding that gnosis, or spiritual illumination, is the key to salvation. Gnosticism flourished in the Roman Empire in the first through the fourth centuries A.D. One of its chief teachings is that the physical world is the creation of a second-rate deity known as the Demiurge (from a Greek word meaning “craftsman”) and that the true, benevolent God is hidden from ordinary humans. Gnosis is the key to reaching this hidden God. The early Gnostic sects were denounced as heretical by the mainstream Church and died out in the early centuries of the Common Era, but Gnostic impulses have reappeared throughout history: the medieval Bogomils and Cathars are two examples. The twentieth century has also seen a Gnostic revival; today some small churches and sects identify themselves as Gnostic.
