Reason didn't evolve the world, the material world evolved human reason


St. Thomas said the soul was reason, and he said to despise the command of reason is to despise the command of God, and he said conscience was the same as reason, and he also said that reason was the natural world, and that natural law was reason (from Pieper's Breviary The Human Wisdom of St. Thomas).

I don't think so. The human material mind is in the material body doing material logic, defining the soul, God, the conscience, natural law, and reason. Reason is the power of the material mind within the material body to think, understand, and form judgments by a process of logic, but that is not God.

I accept Godhood, conscience, natural law, as well as reason, but I accept them as material products of an evolved material world. Godhood is evolved to by way of material evolution, the “soul” (Tirips) is the material activator to Godhood within material life working along with natural selection and evolution, and that can be understood by both the material reason and the instincts of the material body.

We evolve in the material world to supermaterial Godhood, assuming we can evolve both the material reason and the material instincts to do so. Reason didn't evolve the world, the material world evolved human reason, Godhood didn't evolve the world the material world evolves to ascending levels of Godhood.
