Comments by "Steve Watson" (@stevewatson6839) on "The REAL Religion behind National Socialism" video.
Deejii Varissuo Deeji, the Demiurge is straight out of Plato - δημιουργός or dēmiurgós. See Plato's dialogue Timaeus/Τίμαιος/ Timaios. If you know your Plato you should recognise it written down. You probably pronounce it differently or have only ever seen it written down and that is what is throwing you. Anywho, you should have your bearings now and can get as good a grasp of what Lewis was yammering about as any of us.

@TheImperatorKnight Which Saint John? G. Jn., 1 Jn., 2 Jn., 3 Jn, and Rev., are all by different authors. The Johns of Gospels/Acts and Paul are different Johns again and the Apocryphon stands even further apart. If you line the Johannine scripture up in order you'll see the kinship it all has but if you only have the far ends you might be buggered to see what they have to do with one another. You'll have to be clear which writings you are talking about; you appear to be conflating quite a lot and dragging in a boatload of dubious material to boot. I can recognise what you are talking about but it is all very cartoon. Your going to wind up with The da Vinci Code or the The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail in drag if your not careful. I'm sympathetic because I've following you for years, I'm familiar with your argument and your material and I'd already reached some of the same conclusions. Early Xtianities; "Gnosticism";The Hidden Stream and all that are things that have interested me since about 1970. And trust me; on the evidence of this video your trashing both the subject and your own credibility.

@aminrodriguez4707 Not quite. Irenaeus, Tertullian, Epiphanius, and several other Early Fathers and Heresiologists had quite a bit to say about about Xtian sectarians of a gnostic bent from the late 2nd to the early 5th century or thereabouts.

@postmodernmining You are conflating Dr Bob, Robert M Price with Dr Richard Carrier. Both are great; but Dr Bob would be the go to guy. Lewis is going to do himself a mischief without a proper guide.

@TheImperatorKnight Again, there are half a dozen "Johns". You and Oscar are talking past one another about at least three of them.
