		For such, he says, is the power of that man. And he being thus constituted in power, (Monoimus alleges) that the son was born quicker than thought and volition.
		But since the heresy of Monoimus has been sufficiently refuted, let us see what are the fictitious doctrines which the rest also (of these heretics) devise, in their desire to set up for themselves an empty name.

		Further traces of the obligations of Monoimus to Simon are found in the reference to the six powers instrumental in creation, which answer to Simon's six "roots," while a similar indebtedness to Simon on the part of the Naassene writer in Hippolytus is found on comparing the anatomical speculations connected with the name Eden (v.

	Gnosticism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The gnostic conception of God is often defined through a string of negatives: he is immovable, invisible, intangible, ineffable; commonly, "he" is seen as being androgynous, a potent symbol for being, as it were, 'all-containing'.
		This mode of thinking about God is so important in gnosticism that he is sometimes referred to as "the uncontained"; otherwise he may be referred to as Bythos, the Monad as it is called by Monoimus, or the first Aeon.
		In the end, it is difficult, perhaps impossible to confidently identify a clear origin for Gnosticism, due in part to its commonly syncretistic nature, and due also to the fluid (some might say "confused") relations between religious traditions in antiquity and, indeed, throughout history.

		The origins of Gnosticism are a subject of dispute amongst scholars: some think Gnosticism is fundamentally pagan in origin, but has adopted a Christian veneer; others trace its origin to Judaism; yet others think it derives from Jesus, and is a development of his teaching at least as valid as the orthodox one.
		It seems clear that Gnosticism, at least in some of its theologically more developed formulations, was heavily influenced by Platonism, Neo-Platonism, Stoicism, old Semitic religions, Christianity and (at least in the case of Monoimus) Pythagoreanism.
		Note that like everything else about Gnosticism, the identification of a text as Gnostic or not may be controversial, however most Nag Hammadi codices may be assumed to be Gnostic in essence, except for the copy of Plato and the "sayings" Gospel of Thomas.

		Rather, heretics always appear to us as appealing, even compelling, able to reach the deep recesses of our being, urging us to confess: `This is most certainly true.’ In the economy of salvation, the Almighty has made room for heresy—a Greek word that means choice or faction or particular opinion.
		Monoimus presents a position on Christian faith that is one of these choices: the choice that says `I will make faith a reflection of my needs and desires.’ Monoimus speaks across the ages as a significant soul.
		The rejection of the `stranger God’ is fundamental to the theology of the most famous of the Gnostics, Marcion, said to be the son of a bishop, whose witness, like Monoimus, was made in the second century.

	Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater - ps2 Review - Game Revolution
		According to Christianity, the Devil, disguised as a snake, tempted Eve into seeking forbidden knowledge and so managed to estrange the first humans from their God, the boss of bosses.
		But the Gnostics thought the serpent was the herald of the true God, Monoimus, and his message liberated humanity from the clutches of Yaldabaoth, the Old Testament God, who was seen by the Gnostics as Satan.
