'''Noahite Mithraism''' appears to have been a thing a few different times throughout history. [[Cyrus the Great]] was a Mithraic Noahite. The Magi who honoured
the birth of Jesus as an Herodian Prince appear to have been Mithraists. They also seem to have had a significant influence in the area of the Greater Persian Empire between 651 and 692 AD, and the Paulicians also appear to have been of the same Magian/Gnostic/Hanif persuasion.
In the Roman Province of Tachkastan they followed some sort of Essene Idumeans from whom the Manicheans had seceded from under the influence of Marcionism and Mandaeism. William St. Clair Tisdall prove that they preserved many Gnostic folktales about Jesus Christ such as for example:
:The "History of the Nativity of Mary and the Saviour's Infancy"
:"The Nativity of Mary"
:"The Protevangelium of James the less"
:The Arabic "Gospel of the Infancy
=The Gentile Gnostic Question=
Gentile Gnosticism ([[Christian Gnosticism]]) like that of the Marcionites, Valentinians, Mandaeans, and Manicheans presents a complex problem. A certain amount of Jewish Kabbalah found its way into 2nd century Christianity which completed what it didn't know in the most anti-Semitic ways because they lacked understanding concerning the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil and dumbed it down into the Tree of Gnosis. Everything else followed on from that one simple mistake.
