The Hegelian view of history as an inevitable teleological unfolding is more real than the postmodern idea that all meta-narratives go nowhere, even if Hegel's zenith was a spiritualism that does not exist. But supermaterial Godhood does exist or can exist as a supermaterial object or objects at the zenith of material evolution.
We don't need to lose religion, Godhood, or morality, the biological origin of social behavior can be expanded to high culture, which may not create the world of idea-obsessed philosophers and ascetics but will create a real living natural world with the possibility of evolving all the way to ascending levels of real Godhood.
History and evolution are broadly moving toward Godhood, far beyond the ideal state defined by Marx, and not toward the non-material Spirit of Hegel, but toward ascending levels of supermaterial Godhood. But before we rush to the very human idea of "final" endings, evolution and devolution never end, there will always be gods and universes evolving, arriving, rising and falling.
With theological materialism we have nothing to lose but the fictions of the non-material, idea-obsessed postmodernists, the spiritualism of Hegel, and the non-biology of Marx. But we can have a grand material meta-synthesis of religion and science, along with ascending levels of real Godhood.
Politically and culturally the reconciliation of the individual, the group, and the world of different groups, means setting up or adapting existing states to an ethnopluralism of ethnostates, legally and nonviolently, in line with the real kin and ethnic preferences of real human nature. Than perhaps we can all get on with materially evolving toward Godhood.
