For Wilber and other religionists involution is evolution. Quite a reduction. Evolutionary spirituality is more than interior development, it is mainly exterior biological development. Perhaps this is done out of political correctness since talk of future human biological evolution remains taboo.
We say that involution—which is evolution to Wilber—allows us to see the Soul Within, which is not God. Traditional religion helps us to see the Soul-Within. The Evolutionary Christian Church seeks to guide biological evolution to actually reach the God who activates the Spirit within to evolve to Him.
We do not separate the material from the spiritual. We look both within and without for God, Who is evolved to from the material to the spiritual, guided by the Soul-Within, activated by the Spirit-Within, through God's grace, and by material or bio-spiritual evolution.
