John Lamb Lash & Sophia

Lash is a leading voice for Sophia as the Gnostic Wisdom Goddess, who created this world and its first ruler as a mistake. Lash popularized the term ‘archon’ to mean evil supernatural beings. I put Sophia into context: historically with the earthly archons of Greece and the nomarchs of Egypt, geographically with what Nag Hammadi was in pre-archon Egypt, mythologically with the Egyptian gods of the archons, politically with the military battle to rule Egypt, and biblically with the comparison of migrations.
I end with the Apocrypha of John and Seth, who in Egyptian mythology is the fratricidal, sociopathic god who dismembers his brother Osiris. In his name, Goddess cultures were destroyed and patriarchy began. Was the Sophia story written by the patri-archons to subjugate Goddess and dominate women? Or secret knowledge passed on by a Goddess culture to give a way out? That’s the question I answer here.
