I don’t ‘see’ convergence of Science Philosophy and Religion leading to a homogenous, dull, bland lifestyle/culture.
Awesome edifices are built on a single foundation … eg Taj Mahal
With Science Religion and Philosophy interwoven on a single foundation the potential outcomes are unbelievably awesome.
the substance of spirit is undefinable … it’s very essence defies definition … to “name” something … to “define” something … is to put it in a box … to put it in chains … obviously “Spirit” will not allow such an outcome.
That explains why science, philosophy and religion won’t converge. Science and philosophy can’t work with undefinable concepts. Science can’t work with unmeasurable concepts.
Science only investigates observable phenomena while religion makes claims which can
not be subject to potential falsification and that is why they are mutually incompatible
OK … is quantum science currently struggling with observable phenomena?
OK … though your comment does not seem to render religious claims absolutely false … only that religious claims cannot be subject to potential falsification.
Perhaps more accurately … you agree with what he wrote.
Frankly … I’m astonished at how much ‘stuff’ has been posted recently that echoes Teilhard’s thoughts/opinions … detailed in his book “Philosophy of Man” … in both the philosophy forum and this forum.
I’m not aware of anyone in ILP that has actually read his book … I’ve only read the intro … preface … and a few pages.
