And it should be used in a course for college freshman. They could write essays and stuff. Then it would be a real discipline, and not just some fringe list on the Internet. Think of how much time and energy has been wasted studying outdated and useless things like religion or art history when the kids should have been learning something Good. Maybe some of us could get jobs teaching Quality, then people would have a reason to study it. But the first step is to publish a textbook. The kind with big unchanging chapter headings and review questions in the back. And we’ll need a glossary, so that everybody will be speaking the same jargon, a sort of glue to hold the book together. Well let me know what you think, Dan Colonnese Though this text is largely based on the work for my Ph.D. thesis, it is has been written for the philosophy under-graduate in mind. On other words, it aims to be the kind of text suggested above by Daniel Colonnese. © 2005 ANTHONY MCWATT PAGE 2 OF 132 AN INTRODUCTION TO ROBERT PIRSIG’S METAPHYSICS OF QUALITY A NOTE FROM ROBERT PIRSIG Anthony McWatt comes closer than anyone to being a dharma successor of my own work on the Metaphysics of Quality.

  • Teilhard De Chardin Toward a Science Charged with Faith (1881-1955)
    Teilhard de Chardin Toward a Science Charged With Faith (1881-1955) http://www.crosscurrents.org/chardin.htm Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955) stands among the very few leaders of thought in this century to integrate pure scientific research with a religious vocation. At an early point in his career this paleontologist and Jesuit priest made it his personal mission to reconstruct the most basic Christian doctrines from the perspectives of science and, at the same time, to reconstruct science from the perspectives of faith. He would do this by overthrowing all the barriers that had been erected between science and religion in the past one hundred years. He would take the lessons learned from the study of nature as the foundation on which to reconstruct the Christian faith. He would single-handedly remake all the dogmas of his own Catholic Church, and he would at the same time remake the world of modern science on the model suggested by his personal experience of God. Teilhard was seen by the Vatican as a threat to the integrity of the faith. Rome insisted that his religious writings should not be published; he was forbidden to teach or even to speak publicly on religious subjects; he was banished from his native country. Yet his ideas were disseminated informally and sometimes secretly by friends and colleagues in the church. He became a hero and a role model for a whole generation of younger priests and theologians. He set the stage for the renewal movements which finally came to flower in the era of Vatican II.

  • “Teilhard's Vision and the Earth Charter”
    SR 4-13-05 “Teilhard’s Vision and the Earth Charter” An essay prepared by Steven C. Rockefeller for a panel on “The Spirit of the Earth: Global Ethics and a Sustainable Future” Teilhard 2005, United Nations, New York, April 8, 2005 It was in the early 1960s as a divinity student in the classroom of the Christian theologian Daniel Day Williams at Union Theological Seminary in New York that I first encountered the work of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. Williams’ theology drew heavily on the work of a number of evolutionary thinkers and process philosophers, especially Alfred North Whitehead. Like Whitehead Teilhard did his most creative work in evolutionary philosophy and theology during the 1920s and 1930s. This was a period that produced a number of highly creative evolutionary philosophers including Henri Bergson in France, Samuel Alexander in England, and John Dewey in the United States. They were all deeply influenced by science and the experimental method of knowledge, and they all sought in diverse ways—especially Teilhard—to harmonize science, philosophy, and religion in an effort to heal a major split in the modern psyche. This essay has been prepared as a contribution to “The Spirit of the Earth: Global Ethics and a Sustainable Future,” one of a number of panels and events organized as part of a special commemoration of the life and thought of Teilhard. It focuses on the Earth Charter as an articulation of the emerging new global ethics and as a contribution to what Teilhard called “the formation of a veritable spirit of the earth.”1 Teilhard views the evolution of life on Earth as continuous with the great evolutionary process that is the universe.

    Cosmos and History: The Journal of Natural and Social Philosophy, vol. 15, no. 1, 2019 THE PHENOMENON OF MAN, REVISED: EVOLUTION AND I.T. VERSUS EXTINCTION IN THE YEARS TO COME Paul J. Werbos ABSTRACT: The Phenomenon of Man, by Teilhard de Chardin, was a great effort to truly unify hard core science and charismatic spirit, with practical implications for better understanding the dynamics of history and period we are now entering. This paper presents the noosphere species theory -- a radical revision of de Chardin's theory, as is necessary to account for what we now know about natural selection, about the mathematics of intelligent systems and about the great ocean of dark matter and energy connecting the galaxies of our cosmos. The noosphere species theory still emphasizes the possibility and need for a growth in spiritual collective intelligence, but it offers more details on how this growth could be supported and accelerated, and it faces up to the reality that our particular noosphere might or might not survive the difficult challenges arising now. And yet, it accepts that we are not alone. KEYWORDS: Noosphere; Machine learning; Soul; Psi; Backpropagation; Sociobiology; Internet of things; Human-centric internet; Futures; Consciousness; Cycles of history; Evolution 1. Background and Fundamental Principles of a New Vision 1.1 THE CORE VISION OF TEILHARD DE CHARDIN In his seminal manifesto, The Phenomenon of Man [1], Teilhard de Chardin proposed a new vision of humanity and of our destiny, intended to reconcile the core principles of his Catholic beliefs with the core facts proven by science.

  • Evaluating the Teleological Argument for Divine Action
    CHAPTER FIVE EVALUATING THE TELEOLOGICAL ARGUMENT FOR DIVINE ACTION Wesley J. Wildman 1. Introduction 1.1. Divine Action and Evolutionary Biology Th ere are many ways to conceptualize divine action in nature and history, ranging from attribution to God of natural-law suspending miracles or natural-law conforming activity, to virtual identifi cation of the laws and processes of nature with the initiating creative act of God or with the divine nature itself. It must be recognized from the outset that some of these conceptions cannot possibly profi t from insights drawn from the natural sciences, including evolutionary biology. One example is Rudolf Bultmann’s assertion that divine action occurs only in the realm of human existence and leaves no traces in history and nature; this depends upon a dualism of being or language. Another is John Locke’s reliance on the miraculous as a mode of special divine action. To the extent that miraculous and various forms of dualistic theories of divine action are defensible—and I think they are if the right approach is taken—a theory of divine action that is independent of considerations from the natural sciences, including evolutionary biology, is still feasible. Th eories of divine action that take the natural sciences to have something crucial to off er, however, have much better chances of achieving the virtues of specifi city and plausibility. If we accept this, then we will be inclined to try to establish sub- stantive connections between theories of divine action and all kinds of scientifi c theories, including evolutionary biology. One type of con- nection begins with the appearance of purposes or ends in nature and attempts to construe this as evidence of the reality of divine action by means of the argument that such apparent ends indicate genuine teleology in natural objects and processes, and that this teleology (in any of a number of possible forms) is the mode of God’s action.

Stevens-Arroyo [email protected] Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and then, for a second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire. -Pierre Teilhard de Chardin The French Jesuit, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, was a priest trained as a paleontologist. He became a living proof of the adage that it is luck to be “in the right place at the right time.” In his career, he was witness to the unraveling of the Piltdown Man hoax in 1912 when he was still a student in England and as a mature scientist worked in the unearthing of the Peking Man in 1921, a major event in paleontology that revolutionized much of the early twentieth century thinking about evolution.

  • The Role of Nature for the Future of Man
    The Role of Nature for the Future of Man C1395043 Mareike Christin Dornhege International Graduate Course in Global Environmental Studies SUMMARY Teilhard de Chardin was not only a priest and philosopher, but also a natural scientist. As such, he has inspired theologists, but also academics until today. The purpose of this essay is to put Teilhard de Chardin’s work into perspective of one of the most pressing challenges mankind is facing now: The fate of the natural environment. While in the last century, mankind has become increasingly aware of the impacts our lifestyle has on the natural environment and while we have achieved great milestones in terrestrial conservation, marine conservation lags far behind. The ocean has escaped our attention and remains underresearched, underfunded, and underprotected. According to de Chardin, man is placed in the forefront of life. Yet, de Chardin reminds us that humans, albeit the highest point of organization and consciousness in evolution, must not forget their roots. And our roots are in this world, to which we are deeply connected. We exist within, not outside the universe and this planet. Our ability to reflect on our own behavior is what elevates us above the rest of evolution. Hence, it is within our best interest and in line with the expansion of our consciousness that we reflect on this, and increase our “scope for action” and preserve god’s creation, including plants, animals and ourselves. Mankind is “folding in upon itself” as de Chardin describes in many of his works when illustrating the formation of the Noosphere which results of the tighter and tighter packing of human consciousness to finally “cover” the planet with another layer – a layer of reflection, thinking and consciousness.
