Ecumenism is based on the principle that all the Revealed Religions were speaking of the same Involutionary Inward Path to the Kingdom of God within. Separation and variety is based on the Evolutionary Outward Path of evolution to Godhood, the God first glimpsed in the Inward Path. This is the Twofold Path. Let us have a world of “cooperative competition” (Cattell's term) in a world of groups. Anything less (or more) may not survive.
Is this cooperative competition too “poetic?” Some philosophers (German idealists) believed that only poetry could heal the divide between religion and science. But when the Holy Spirit is seen as supermaterial or epiphenomenal and as the Will To Godhood, activating material life to evolve to Godhood, then religion can be related to institutional arrangements. the Evolutionary Christian Church brings poetry and religion both down to earth and connected to heaven. Poetry and politics can then affirm this religion.
