How theological materialism harmonizes the fields

Theological materialism can sit at the center of the main disciplines of religion, science, philosophy, psychology, art, politics, and it can harmonize these fields.

In religion, Godhood is retained but the God or Father Within experienced in the Inward Path of traditional religions is transformed in the Outward Path of material/supermaterial evolution to real Godhood. This in turn can bring theological materialism in line with science and philosophy, and with the science of evolution as studied in sociobiology and genetics, as we move toward higher stages of evolution toward Godhood.

Added to philosophical naturalism in science and philosophy, and its materialism, is the religious inward activating drive of the Spirit-Will-To-Godhood, or Tirips, which is also material or supermaterial activation, and is then shaped by outside selection and evolution. In psychology this activating force is seen almost as a Super-Id directing and defining essential life and its drive, which needs to be balanced with the rest of the mind, the body and the culture.

Art and political philosophy follow as an affirmation of the sacred evolution of life toward real material/supermaterial Godhood. Real culture is given conservative sociobiological validity. This means that human nature, affirmed throughout human history as being kin-centered, gender defined, age-grading, heterosexual marriage-making, hierarchical, ethnocentric, even xenophobic, and religious-making, among other things, with group-selection as the primary unit of selection, can most naturally harmonize with some form of ethnopluralism. That is, regions and states set aside for distinct ethnic cultures to flourish, protected with a federalism thereby helping to prevent the increasing civil disturbances between different ethnic groups unsuccessfully trying to live together in the same place. In the U.S., the Constitution could affirm this with its separation of powers and states.

This is how theological materialism can sit at the center of the main disciplines, harmonizing the continued cooperative evolution of all life toward Godhood.
