Audacious as it sounds, the death of religion, the death of God, the death of order, the death of the West, the death of Western people, need not advance if we can transform outworn, non-material, theological spiritualism into theological materialism.

The leap too far and bringing Godhood back to reality
The times of Homer were
more right philosophically than the times of Plato in seeing the
life-force depart with death, extended only with reputation and material offspring.
The life of the non-material transcendent soul, the “leap of
being,” was a leap too far.
But this does not mean
that Godhood and order are lost, far from it, the evolution of
material life to ever-ascending levels of Godhood brings Godhood back
to reality, back to the natural world, back to philosophical
naturalism (see theological materialism). It will require all the real conservative order, all the
bonding of religion, all the discoveries of science that we can
muster to retain the best of the past as we continually evolve toward
the future.
Audacious as it sounds, the death of religion, the death of God, the death of order, the death of the West, the death of Western people, need not advance if we can transform outworn, non-material, theological spiritualism into theological materialism.
