Re-imagining moral imagination
In theological materialism, Godhood is
transformed from the non-material to the material/supermaterial, and
then re-imagined culturally in moral art (perhaps another version of
Burke's “moral imagination”). God is not rejected but
conservatively transformed: the God or Father Within of traditional
religion is understood in the Twofold Path as a symbolic experience
of the real Godhood reached through material and supermaterial
evolution.
There is teleological purpose in the
activation of the evolution of life, and not “mere” utility or
strength. Basic causality is seen in the Spirit-Will-To-Godhood which activates and virtually defines life. The
teleological equation becomes utility (survival success of Darwin)
plus strength ( power eg. Nietzsche) leads toward upward evolution
(theological materialism). Both religion and science are transformed, and saved.
Godhood is seen as the zenith of beauty, truth, goodness, power, etc.
attained in material/supermaterial evolution.
