Political correctness in evolutionary spirituality

The latest trend called “evolutionary spirituality” says that evolution will nolonger be primarily physical in nature but rather will be noetic—a transformation or mutation of consciousness, (for example, Enlightennext ) This is wishful thinking on the religious level, this is political correctness in religion.

And furthermore it is a misunderstanding of enlightenment, or the Kingdom of God Within, which requires a dying of the desires of material evolution, and really an end to “rebirths.”

We leave biological evolution out of the religious view of evolution at the risk of not evolving to Godhood. I understand that the worthy hope is to blunt the social Darwinist side of evolution, but this is selling mankind short.

We are capable of separate development, and even competitive development, with decentralization and light federalism, and evolutionary spiritualists could be applying their insights to helping every group and every state evolve in the best way possible for their particular stage of evolution. This would be true cooperation and not contrary to the direction of millions of years of past evolution. The Theoevolutionary Church certainly is applying this perspective.
