Jules Doinel (1842-1903) was the founder of the modern Gnostic Church. He proclaimed 1890 the beginning of a new gnostic era, and took for himself the name Valentin II, after Valentinius, the second century Christian gnostic thinker. According to Gnostic Bishop Stephan A. Hoeller it is unclear whether Doinel was consecrated into a lineage of apostolic succession or whether he was "spiritually consecrated".[1]
For a time after 1895, he converted to Roman Catholicism and began a collaboration with Léo Taxil, an anti-freemasonic writer who was subsequently exposed as a serial hoaxster. He wrote a book entitled Lucifer unmasked in 1895 in which it unveils the returned worship to Lucifer in the Freemasonry. He was member of the Grand Orient de France.
