The religious metasystem breakthrough pattern for the future

An interdisciplinary view of evolution called “metasystem transition theory,” which has since been developed within the branch of systems theory known as cybernetics ( see the Principia Cybernetica Project by Turchin, Cliff Joslyn and Francis Heylighen), seeks to find “an overarching paradigm to reorganize all other paradigms within it, and therefore all knowledge and methodologies. Thus, the... goals are implicitly nothing short of the integration of evolutionary biology, anthropology, sociology, psychology, computer science, physics, chemistry, mathematics, philosophy and culture itself....when possible, organisms socially organize to maximize adaptive output based on the simple law that teamwork outproduces individual output, and well-organized teams outproduce the lesser so. Single-celled organisms did it in forming multi-celled organisms, and humans are now doing the same on a similar scale. From this view, the history of civilization from the past five-thousand years has been a competition of evolving social systems. Social breakthroughs in ideas, institutions, religions, traditions, academics, infrastructure, government, economics, and so forth, provide the adaptive advantages that allow some systems to out-compete others in war, diplomacy, economics, technology. If indeed, complex organization is more adaptive, than individuals capable of interacting with such information-rich, abstract and dynamic systems will also be the well-adjusted...” 

The religious philosophy of theological materialism in the Evolutionary Christian Church fulfills such a  metasystem breakthrough pattern for the future. Kin, group, region, national, and world success in survival and reproduction have a hierarchy of values and morals, a hierarchy of ethics, while maintaining the divine goal of Godhood for all. We are capable of having cooperative competition to reach the goal, with independent small states protected by light federalism, guided by religion and science. Ethics toward group members, group government, other group governments, members of other groups, individuals in the Church, and the Evolutionary Goal of Godhood, follow in a hierarchy of values. And things change, as Raymond Cattell pointed out, circumstances may put emphasis on the primary survival of all groups, if the total existence of man is threatened. This is the real religious-sociobiological-metasystem breakthrough pattern for the future, a highly civilized social pattern---those who can affirm the pattern can evolve all the way to Godhood.
