One part of me is curious if Manichaeism made this far to Vietnam as it did with China. Temple in Cao’an (草庵)

The other immature part of me is thinking Super Best Friends in South Park. Censored being Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), despite appearing in past episodes uncensored.

Hopeful that this helps herald the re-emergence of Zoroastrianism to Iran. Perhaps also Manichaeism.

People are supposed to grow out of manichaeism in their teens... 😒

Augustine and Manichaeism were in the closet making original sin and I saw one of original sins and the original sin looked at me

I think Manichaeism was the kiki type

Manichaeism is deeply rooted in our culture and our psyche, and difficult to escape even when - as in this excellent example - it oversimplifies in a way that is ultimately counterproductive.

You often hear Manichaeism bandied about. Here is the history of the Christian Gnostic sect laid out.

According to P.O. Skjaervo's Introduction to Manichaeism, "The farther we come from Persia, the more common also is Buddhist terminology." Mani claimed to not only be the successor to the Buddha, Jesus and Zarathustra, but he saw himself as Maitreya, the future savior Buddha.

The second of Swiss explorer & historian Christoph Baumer's four volume history of Central Asia takes us through the rise and fall of the first empires of the region and the consolidation of what we now call the Silk Roads. Large format, beautifully illustrated, good reading.

Pumpkin Spice Manichaeism

In America, all those who show humanity and charity are called communists. This Manichaeism is in the genes of a large number.

There’s a certain kind of Genocide Joe poster who suffer from the worst form of American Manichaeism, and do not understand that there were many agendas and people with agency in Oct 7 and Israel’s response and not surprisingly a lot of them are just mask-off antisemites QUELLE SURPRISE

My time is precious to me. This sanctimonious Manichaeism deserves no more.

Since the CPC has now reached its fifth generation of leadership, it is thus the Fifth Imam sect. Hahaha, that cracks me up! However, philosophically speaking, communism is dualistic. Compared to the Abrahamic religions, it aligns more closely with Manichaeism.
