Evolutionary conservatism defines survival and reproductive success in evolution as the prime element of conservatism

Evolutionary conservatism defines survival and reproductive success in evolution as the prime element of conservatism, as defined by the science of sociobiology and the biological origin of social behavior. That is, maintaining and handing on the gene pool and the conserving the ethnic groups which largely create the ancient traditions, while affirming that the expressions of the genes are continually developing, embodied in new improved ways, all the way to materially evolving to ascending levels of real Godhood.

Conservatism will need to stretch quite a bit, but that is better than dying. Evolutionary conservatism conserves conservatism, religion, and God in perhaps the best way that they can include ongoing science. God, religion, and cultural traditions can harmonize with the biological origin of social behavior. Most importantly we conserve the gene pool and the ethnic groups which largely create the traditions as we evolve, we maintain an ancient script by embodying it in new ways.

As I've said before, as an evolutionary conservative I prefer to build on the past rather than destroy it. I did not erect theological materialism on the ruins of Christianity, as modern thinkers did with science and the humanities, I wanted to renew the building, not tear it down. This rebirth is seen in the Twofold Path where the God-Within, the Father-Within, is seen as the first glimpse, or the mirror of the real Godhood reached through  ascending levels of material and supermaterial evolution.

The biological origin of social behavior, and kin and ethnic centered human nature, lead naturally to regionalism, localism, and an ethnopluralism of ethnostates, protected from marauding imperialists and supremacists by some sort of defensive federalism. All groups can then get on with the natural business of our evolution to real Godhood, aided by the religious philosophy of theological materialism.
