How we can be, religiously, in the world and of the world


Christianity in the West has been increasingly replaced by secular culture, consumerism, pornography, etc., but technology has been steadily improving across many fields, with vital new knowledge for humanity. Even political philosophy is sketching out the ethnopluralism hypothesis, considering regions and states for ethnic cultures so as to relate better to real human nature, which is more accurately being defined by the sciences of sociobiology and genetics.

We cannot go directly back to the past. Dropping out of the world so as to salvage traditionalists values is a mainly a dead end. Merely criticizing the world without solutions only disrupts the world. And criticizing the world for the purpose of  weakening the world, so that we may then dominate the world, as some groups do, only ravages the world and causes civil disorder. Assimilation is often not possible due to distinct differences between ethnic groups and religions. And radical revolutions are doomed---not only are they often immoral, the secular world remains too strong to overthrow.

Theological materialism and the Theoevolutionary Church is in the world and of the world because it is based in the religious foundation of material evolution to supermaterial Godhood, which requires the world. Technology and new knowledge in the material world is welcomed as an aid in our evolution. We reach Godhood by evolving in the world to the zenith of material evolution, which is Godhood. We transform and revitalize religion in general and Christianity in particular by transvaluing the Inward Path to God or the Father Within, into the Outward Path of evolution to real Godhood in the material and supermaterial world. We retain the insights of the Inward Path in the Twofold Path, as the first symbolic experience of real Godhood reached through evolution. This is how we can be, religiously, in the world and of the world.
