Re: British Humor Writ Large
I'm truly perplexed by "Gnostic Christianity" ... what's Christian about Gnosticism?

They weren't Christians - they were heretics. The early Church emphatically rejected them.

Alan Watts was like Christopher Hitchens - an alcoholic loser. Some teacher!

Re: Burning The Candle At Both Ends
In John 9:38 there is an account of Jesus allowing a man to WORSHIP him. Please explain.
"He said, “Lord, I believe”; and he worshiped him."

Re: Burning The Candle At Both Ends
In Revelation 22:8-9, the apostle John attempted to worship an angel, but was severely admonished:
"And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed me these things. But he *said to me, “Do not do that. I am a fellow servant of yours and of your brethren the prophets and of those who heed the words of this book. Worship God.”
In Matthew 4:9-10, Satan said to Jesus,
“All these things I will give You, if You fall down and worship me.”". But Jesus *said to him, “Go, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and serve Him"".
In light of these passages, please explain why Jesus allowed a man to worship him in John 9:38.

Then there's feminism, abortion and homosexuality - aka The Unholy Trinity.

Revelation was not written by John the apostle. I find it interesting that atheists like myself tend to know more about the Bible than believers.
My concern is that you seem to be thinking like an insect again.
From The Catholic Encyclopedia:
The author of the Apocalypse calls himself John. "John to the seven churches which are in Asia" (Apocalypse 1:4). And again, "I, John, your brother and your partner in tribulation . . . was in the island which called Patmos, for the word of God" (1:9).
The Seer does not further specify his personality. But from tradition we know that the Seer of the Apocalypse was John the Apostle the son of Zebedee, the Beloved Disciple of Jesus. At the end of the second century the Apocalypse was acknowledged by the historical representatives of the principal churches as the genuine work of John the Apostle.

Only God can create, therefore Jesus = God.
Thomas the apostle addressed Jesus as "my Lord and my God".
Elizabeth referred to Mary's unborn child (Jesus) as "my Lord", which is a Jewish reference to God.
