God and Corporeality


The message of theological materialism says that traditional religions, perhaps without exception, say it is a transgression to attribute corporeality to God. Some religions mean this in the sense of anyone defining man as God, but all religions mean this also in the sense of God having no corporeality, material body. Reality is the opposite of this, it is a transgression to attribute no corporeality to God.

The problem comes from the confounding of the Inward and Outward Paths. It is in the Involutionary Inward Path that one seeks to block out corporeality, the material world and its desires, so that one may glimpse the God within the Soul of man. This is behind the disciplines of the ascetics.

The Evolutionary Outward Path is the Path to Real Godhood, the Path to supermaterial, supercorporeal Godhood by way of material and supermaterial evolution. Whereas the Inward Path is only a mirror seen in the Soul of some of the power of Real Godhood, the opposite of Plato.

The Outward Path does not cancel out the Inward Path, but traditional religion does cancel out the Outward Path. This is a theological error.. Both Paths are affirmed in the Twofold Path of the Theoevolutionary Church.
