... to restore theology to the mainstream of science
Table of contents
Vision: We see humanity united in global religious harmony based on scientific understanding of the world in which we find ourselves
page 2:
The natural religion project: The purpose of this project is show that there are viable developments of traditional religion. The first step is to restore theology to the mainstream of science and so lay the foundations for religion consistent with ourselves and our world.
page 3:
Religion: Religion, we assume, takers over where biology leaves off to increase the fitness of human groups. Religious unity promotes cooperation and eradicates war. War remains, however, between disparate religious groups.
page 4:
Christianity: This site is the work of an dissatisfied Christian who has seen an opportunity to develop Christian ideas of peace and love using the methods and ideas of science.
page 5:
The Roman Catholic Church (RCC): The RCC is a corporation which claims a monopoly on Christianity. In the past it has used torture and murder to enforce its claims. The modern Church is a little more civilized, but it remains a monopolistic and dictatorial anachronism. Here is plays the 'bad guy' role.
page 6:
Science: Science is a method of seeking knowledge which holds that the models of the world we create in our minds can only be trusted if they test good against reality. Scientific model that work better are to be trusted more.
page 7:
Theology: Theology is the science of god, here taken to be the whole. By attempting to embrace the whole human situation, theology hopes to provide a general coordinate system to guide our actions.
page 8:
Problem: The specific problem for theology is the relationship between god and the world, that is between the whole and the parts. We are parts of the whole, and need a reliable theology to see how we fit in.
page 9:
Hypothesis; Our hypothesis is that the whole ('god' and 'the world') can be modelled with a 'transfinite network', a formal structure we imagine as a transfinite number of computing machines ('Turing machines') linked into a communication network.
page 10:
Plan: Our plan is to develop and test this hypothesis, and encourage others to do the same. If we find that the model fits both human experience and traditional notions of God, we can use it to live more securely in our divine milieu.
