Entelechy will one day be acknowledged by both science and religion
I find the
arguments that evolution is “non-purposive” and random as closed
as the religious arguments denying evolution, information is lacking
in both arguments.
“Entelechy”
is the hypothetical agency in some vitalist doctrines, not yet
demonstrable by normal scientific methods, which is considered an
inherent regulating and directing force in the development and
functioning of an organism. I see the concept as the inward
activating material force of “Tirips,” which activates material
life inwardly to evolve toward the zenith of success in survival and
reproduction and toward supermaterial Godhood, while working within
the outside ups and downs of natural evolution.
Tirips
essentially defines "life" itself, the material activation
within life, within every
cell of the body, demanding things like metabolism and reproduction.
Why? Tirips essentially activates material life to be "life,"
which ultimately means to evolve in the material world, if possible
all the way to the zenith of success in survival and reproduction,
which means to ascending levels of Godhood, while working within the
ups and downs of outside natural evolution.
I
see evolution moving inevitably in a pattern, even though it has its
random elements, and the pattern has a discernible direction, in
spite of instances of stagnation and retreat, toward “higher and
higher more effective living forms,”as Cattell
put it. The goal of evolving to Godhood need not deprive us of either
science or religion.
Defining Tirips
as internally activating life toward evolving toward higher and
higher forms and eventually to Godhood, shaped by natural outside
evolution, may be a bit further than present science and religion
want to go, but we can go there. I think such a drive and direction
will one day be acknowledged by both science and religion.
