Prof. M. David Litwa segment on Saturninus of Antioch, his series on #Gnostic, #Platonist, #Pythagorean or #ChristianMystics of antiquity. Saturninus reminds me of the prophet #Mani (#Manichaeanism), also the #Cathars, with an outer circle of normies with a newly acquired faith or belief-system (religion 101) and inner circle of initiates with #vegetarianism being one of the ethical requirements to qualify for #initiation into the #mysteries of #spiritual practice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RE4LBiSgqRQ&list=PLQl0BipQXVy436zEJKefujiWraA1FSpKQ&index=6&ab_channel=M.DavidLitwa
