He would have used similar terms, or referred to similar things. 
Whether or not you choose to make an ad hominem attack, the point 
stands.

He said many things, which taken together form the whole of a 
philosophical system.

> Hinduism is not the parent of Gnosticism.

Then overlook it, and be a man.

You couldn't?

Well, you missed the crux:

"Including acceptance of materialism"

Your sophistry is using what you see as flaws in my character to 
attempt to discredit my argument.

So you're here to make personal insults, and have no concern for 
truth?

"Noted."
