GenX/Millennial media addled Gnostic/Pagan heretic. I'm apprehensive about using the label because of the new-age whackos that morphed into a core segment of today's superficial, gynocentric hysteric left-leaning society. These hugboxing loons don't stop to ponder that priomordial Woman is partially responsible for original sin, as in mainstream Christianity. There's also the older usage of Gnostic as a byword for two-faced conspiratorial arrogance. To me, it is merely a heterodox exploration of metaphysics.
When asked, I just say nondenominational Christian or Neo-Platonist, and I avoid the confusion of the other person hearing 'agnostic'. If the other is familiar, I have no desire to discuss whether he serves Yaldabaoth, like we're having a fanboy flamewar over football teams or gaming consoles. Good Christians (or any other religion) serve the highest god of our universe through virtue.
