The Evolutionary Christian Church (ECC) seeks to empower human nature, not as Nietzsche did trying to root out religion, and not as the Involutionary Inward Path religions did by extirpating human nature. We bring real power and religion back together again in defining the Spirit Within as the Will to Godhood (Shakti in the Tantra) and by adding to religions the Evolutionary Outward Path of evolution. The Traditional Revealed Religions supply the grounds for Ordered Evolution and Revitalized Conservatism to stabilize upward evolution to God for all people and all states.
The way religion virtually jumps through hoops to stay in the world but not of the world is something to behold. Think of how the precept of nonviolence is lifted in the Bhagavad- Gita, or think of the Just War theory, which are outdone by the elaborate rationalizations of the Scholastics. This is not necessary.
The reality is that we need the world, we need the material world, to evolve to Godhood, the God first seen in the Inward Path, which is activated by the Spirit Within and guided by the Soul to Godhood in the Kosmos.
