  1. Not obligatory. And agnosticism is not the opposite of gnosticism, although it sounds like it. In fact, these are ideas that lie in different planes. Agnosticism implies a fundamental refusal to search for an answer to the question of the existence of God. Gnosticism, on the other hand, refers to creeds that claim that knowledge of God is open only to initiates, that is, “those who know”, hence the name. Moreover, Gnosticism is not all such teachings, but only those that were popular in the first centuries of Christianity. In general, such doctrines, not only of that period, but also up to the present, are usually called occult or spiritual.esoteric (and Gnostic, therefore, their ravidnost). As for agnosticism, you can “go” from it in any direction: to become a follower of a particular religion, an atheist or an adept of one or another esoteric creed.
