| Like a Gnostic receding in the mirror, Gnostic Materialists retreat from Sophia and reject the pleroma. Believing that substance is tainted through knowledge, they seek a state of mute slumber with dumb apes. As such, they serve as disruptive element in civilization and elevate the Dark Ages to the status of a Golden Age. Both ornery and capricious, their philosophical convolutions and warped logical extremities are almost predictable in their unpredictability. Their yearning for the [[Opened Head|opened head]], for example, is driven by an understanding that the Gnosis is ''released'' in this state, for they believe that dull, gray substance of the brain seeks to rid itself of the mind. | Like a Gnostic receding in the mirror, Gnostic Materialists retreat from Sophia and reject the pleroma.
