We cannot accurately define Godhood at
this stage in our evolution, but we can describe Godhood as the zenith
of truth, intelligence, beauty, virtue and merit. Our task is to
affirm and accede to the Spirit-Will-To-Godhood that activates life,
which is then shaped by evolution.
Raymond Cattell's term “Beyondism”
described well the direction we are going. But we connect the goal of
the great religions in describing our destination as Godhood, and Cattell, who was quite courageous, does not.
Science will find many ways to help us
evolve, with genetic planning and engineering, but religious ethics
will need to guide the upward direction of evolution.
Conservatism in general has had as much
influence on us as the science of sociobiology, both describe
nature's order and evolution. We are therefore pleased to be able to connect outward Godhood, reached through evolution, with the God
within or Father Within of Christianity, and with the mystics of other
religions. This means we can proceed with a Revitalized Conservatism
and an Ordered Evolution.
