Goals and sub-goals in deep conservatism
“Conservatism” has goals and
sub-goals and I think this requires an evolutionary conservatism, a
deep conservatism in view of the final goals here defined as as
material evolution to supermaterial Godhood. This also applies to
politics, religion and philosophy, where traditions can be
maintained, as in conservatism, but transformed, as in theological materialism.
For example, I think the U.S.
Constitution could accommodate ethnopluralism, with regions and
states for distinct ethnic cultures, grounded in the tradition of the
separation of powers and states, which could help the increasingly
feuding ethnic groups in America, and the unending legal and illegal
immigration into America, and do so in a realistic way that does not counter
real human nature, which remains group-selecting.
Deep conservatism could also apply the
Inward Path of traditional religion which is designed to reach the
symbolic experience of the God or Father Within and retain but
transform it into the Outward Path of material and supermaterial
evolution to real Godhood.
This helps define a deeper conservatism
with final theological goals and sub-goals. The more we know the
better we can adjust the sub-goals to the goals. Human genetic and
environmental improvements can improve our decision-making---it is
not only artificial intelligence that requires enhancement.
