Gnosticism is the parent of the Freemasons, Illuminati, OTO, Kabbala, and Mormons, which is only to name a few. It had a significant effect on the Muslim religion in terms of how they define Jesus. It may have had more effect than that. If you look at the Shriners, they use many of the Muslim religious symbols, and, of course, they are closely affiliated with the Masons. Gnosticism, because of it's secrecy and rampant immorality, could be called the originator of the conspiracy theory.
You should look into Mormon fundamentalism. The mainstream Mormon church doesn't like them because they expose a lot of what is inherently Mormon. They are big pedos. Also, Joseph Smith was a Mason (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mormonism_and_Freemasonry)).

Eh, there's some merit to the message of "take sex seriously", but I tune out for the rest of the fluff.

Gnosticism is like that. They start out sounding innocuous enough and then take you straight to hell.

I must say I can't recall spending a lot of time looking into Gnosticism explicitly. Might have to do that some time soon.
