Basic intentions, motives, and views of theological materialism
When survival and
reproduction breaks down then human nature, being constant, develops
better versions of order and stability usually revising the old
order. Revising the old order works best when it retains the best of
the past even as it changes, which defines conservatism.
Civilization has sought
order and stability because order and stability work best in survival and
reproductive success. So human beings develop religions and
political philosophies to make order and stability sacred.
Human nature has been
constant in human history, but biology has been more constant in
evolving human nature in the first place. The same problems keep
coming up throughout human history because human nature and nature
itself are basically constant.
We are at the stage or point in time when the West needs to revise its old order. Religions and
political philosophy need to move deeper into the biology of social
behavior. The old gods and the old political philosophies can be
retained but biologized.
Theological materialism
declares that religion and science can aid life in evolving toward
ever-ascending levels of Godhood, and political philosophy needs to
reflect that revision. The old inward God experienced by the
ascetics from blocking material desires can be retained in the Inward
Path but transformed in the Outward Path of material evolution to
real Godhood.
In
place of the multicultural multi-ethnic states, which competing
groups are making wastelands, we need to form ethnostates. For example, the U.S.
Constitutional separation of powers and states can be legally
strengthened or amended if need be.
All
ethnic groups and races, left and right, can affirm basic kin and
ethnic-centered human nature and the sacred drive within life to
evolve toward Godhood, while adapting to the ups and owns of the
outside environment.
