Does this sort of explanation fly here? (Mods only)

viewtopic.php?p=883237#p883237
Since there be many pplz who don't understands Gnosticism, I explain it. The Godhead way the fuck up there. Godhead make spawn the way down to Sophia. Sophia want to make shit too, all on her owns, she do it secret. It be abominable. She hide it. It be in cloud, not know of anything higher. It be God of this world. Souls be trapped in lower gods world. Or something like that.


I mean, I know people explain things differently but, the phrasing? Gnosticism is an incredibly interesting subject and the OP does no justice to it. Can a mod check this thread and, I don't know, edit it? Or ask the OP to edit it? My eyes suffer at reading it.

My problem isn't with your explanation as much as it is with your language usage. I don't know, the 'shit' and the 'fuck' weren't necessary for the summarized explanation of what you think Gnosticism is. You had good points, actually, that was a concise yet poorly written way of explaining such complex topic.

Alright. I'm familiar with the demiurge, I just don't see what more explanation it needs.

You have to force me to make a better explanation. I don't do it justice. Just because I'm cooperating with him doesn't mean there isn't still a problem.

Aririn, The OP is fine. It has been changed to remove the swear words. If you feel that it needs further work, work with Svenen to develop a better one. We're not going to start telling people if their OPs are poorly written or not (We'd be here forever), just if they are C&P spam. Just as an FYI, the original OP doesn't run afoul of any rules either. We allow profanity up to a point and I don't think it crossed it.

Now though, the both of you are getting an unoffical warning for spamming Moderation. If you have issues with an OP, Moderation is NOT the place to debate the wording of it. Please don't do so again. Svenen, also, please do not ask the Moderators to "force" you to do something. It's not a good idea.

I'm sorry. Spamming moderation wasn't what I intended to do.

We'll have to make a specific forum for that.

Guys, you really should consider doing as NERVUN asked and taking the discussion elsewhere, he was nice enough to make the warning an unofficial one.
Grave_n_Idle: Maybe that's why the bible is so anti-other-gods, the other gods do exist, but they diss on Jehovah all the time for his shitty work.
Trve: I've never cared much for being 'manly'. If I want to fuck everything with an ass, that's what I choose to do. If you don't like it, sod off.
Fassitude: Well, duh. Since people want to fuck us, of course we get to fuck more.

Seeing as how the topic has been resolved, it's being locked; Svenen and Arirnin do heed NERV's advice.
