Notice that there is only one prophetic tradition……. extant.
This is a crucial part of personalism.
Then there is everything else…… which can be covered with pantheism and panpsychism.
This pretty much covers the waterfront.
Out this spectrum comes only one small world.
And this is the only personal one.
On the pantheist side, we get only cycles……. eternal return.
Only the individual can escape, and then melt into the cosmos.
Buddhism exemplifies pantheism, and is definitely bordering on nihilism.
If we need something, we’re stuck with personalism.
Xianity is our only exemplar……. and it is strongly dualistic.
But if there is one thing that personalism is not, it is not dualistic.
Historically, Christianity
is stuck with dualism.
A universal xianity would be a whole new religion.
So, everybody gets to start from scratch.
The jguy remains the point person.
Most of the Metanarrative comes along for the ride.
The scientific revolution plays a central role, with the technology of the internet 🛜 being crucial in the playing out of the Eschaton.
We have everything covered, except for the actual opening.
Will there be any Disclosure?
I’ve always been partial to Disclosure, but it might not fit into the Opening scenario.
If we’re lucky, we might get a couple of blinks out of the Sun
.
……….
Along with pan-psychism, there is a tendency to treat consciousness as if it were a physical field.
This is also related to the question of the distinction between sentience and sapience.
I claim that there is an ontological distinction.
The self arises only in conjunction with self-awareness.
Cosmogony is co-dependent with ontogeny…… with the advent of the I Am.
The advent of the I Am is logically predicated on an inter-personal orientation.
There is no Creator without a Creation.
An imaginary playmate would suffice, and it need not be clear between the imaginer and the imaginee.
