    S1:E2

    Who or what might be the creator of all things, has been a central tenet of every religious thought since the dawn of humanity.

Our exploration of ancient civilizations continues as we to illuminate the gnostic worldview, which offers a unique take on the creation of our universe by the goddess Sophia, the false reality which endures under the thumb of the demiurge, and the forces working to awaken the divine spark within all of humanity.
