In Evolutionary Christianity the Will To Godhood or the Holy Spirit is seen as the dominant force in human nature and behavior, and the differences between people are less powerful. Idealists and and existentialists and their postmodern offspring, as well as racial supremacists, have exaggerated the differences between people, and worldviews, emphasizing how each person looks at the world from their own individual eyes.
The real differences between people are related to evolution, which is activated not only by reproduction and natural selection but is activated by the Will To Godhood, and here the natural separations of kinships, groups and races are relevant. But since all groups are vitally activated by the Will to Godhood, or the Holy Spirit, and since evolution takes place most essentially at the group level, the natural social and political philosophy is to affirm small states, regions, etc, where each group can evolve in variety toward Godhood.
The social message of Jesus can thus resonate in Evolutionary Christianity toward helping all people, all groups, all races. All people, all small states are encouraged to evolve in their own way, all people being equally motivated by the same powerful Holy Spirit or Will to Godhood. Not one people is noble or chosen, all people are evolving to Godhood and should be helped and encouraged to do so, even with "cooperative competition," which is Civilizing the Beast.
The Will To Godhood or the Holy Spirit, which activates life and evolution is the Ultimate Law, but does It therefore go before any government rules and regulations? No. As in the United States Constitution, there is a separation between church and state, and Evolutionary Christianity maintains this separation. This leaves room for a variety of paths for religion and people to evolve to Godhood. The goal is determined but the path is undetermined.
