@tiskaan @amerika @une @7666 @arcana @sun @toiletpaper There are books of the Bible that refer to Sophia (wisdom) as a woman, and the first begotten person in creation. Early Christianity viewed it as referring to Jesus, but then Arianism happened and that thread got dropped.

Gnosticism made Sophia the principle that falls into disunity with her male counterpart, who is Jesus Christ, which causes the cosmic fall and creates Yahweh and his angels.

Sophiology is a crypto-feminist movement in Christianity that usually identifies Sophia as the Holy Spirit, and the Mother of God, and that first principle, and they usually also invoke one old archeological discovery of Yahweh with an Ashteroth Tree, an old idol which is probably the ritual image being alluded to by the menorah and the trees in the Eden story.

The mythical connections are a whole rabbit hole but usually it all services bringing more ugly lesbians into the priesthood.
