Talk:Divine-Demonic Physiology/@comment-24053170-20190620175945

Isn't the Demiurge considered to be more of a user of Creator Deity Physiology? Since most interpretations of Gnosticism consider it to be an entirely separate entity from God of the Devil.

As the devil is referred to as a principle force that resides within the material world. While the Demiurge resides in the heavens.

This page even seems to confirm that it falls outside of the concepts of the supreme deity or evil- http://gnosis.org/library/valentinus/Demiurge.htm

The demiurge is more of a misguided entity that doesn't understand that he isn't the supreme power, and while its actions may be considered evil to the basic faith of Gnosticism, it doesn't seem to be what we would consider truly demonic...

I may be wrong, but it really seems like its more of a creative force rather then truly evil or destructive one.
