Key Notes
The false creator god born from Sophia's unauthorized self-generation, creator of the prison-world. The false God whose prison-world raises the student question about why the true God does not intervene.
Jiang says there are many competing explanations for violent or contradictory biblical material, including the possibility that a false demiurge rather than the true God is acting.
Sophia creates the Demiurge by trying to reproduce alone; the Demiurge is a monstrosity because it violates natural order and does not know the higher world exists.
The God worshipped today is identified, in the secret-society account Jiang reconstructs, as the false God or Demiurge who created Earth as a prison.
