Symbiotic Panentheism: A Perceptual Shift for Humankind

 

 

Part I of II

 

This work takes the scientific knowledge we have today and blends it with the religious beliefs that have existed for thousands of years by using the logic of philosophy.

 

In the process, a model is constructed demonstrating the connection between a Causative Force, the universe, and life. With this comes understanding.

 

A UNIVERSAL MODEL

 

Why utilize a model?

 

We are a visual creature.

 

How do we build a model of the relationship between a Causative Force, the universe, and life?

 

We do this by building a model of a universal philosophy and examining it against what we’ve been told; what we believe; what we see; what we reason; social problems we cannot resolve; social problems we think will not be solvable; and the impact the model would have had, would have or will have on society.

 

We examine the significance of this model against the ideas of beginning/end concepts and against the idea of creation/destruction of the very universe within which we are located.

 

We do this by starting from where we are and using what we have learned of the universe through science, what we believe through religion, and what we reason through philosophy.

 

We then construct a model which seems to encompass and fuse together all this information without destroying any of it.

 

We have worked long and suffered much to gain this information.

 

We do not want to destroy it.

 

We must respect the effort, the pain, and the blood that was spilled to gain it.

 

How do we know this model will be the correct model?

 

As strange as this may sound, we don’t.
