Star Gazing May 18, 2020 @ 2:16 pmAs Venus leaves our evening sky you can see it’s phases even with a very modest optical aid I used my 5×10 Zeiss miniquick monocular a few nights back although some claim to have seen the phases of Venus with the naked eye.

Scientific Pantheism February 6, 2018 @ 8:33 amI made this video to raise the question of how we approach the idea of divinity. Alan Watts makes an interesting statement on “god.” As Scientific Pantheists, we tend to approach this idea metaphorically. What is your approach to “everything is divine?”

Zachary Hayes replied
Great video Connie. I like to avoid calling it literal or metaphorical, because I think when we’re talking about transcendental ideas we’re being as literal as we can be with the limits of immanent language. For instance, when we say something like “red is hot” and “blue is cool”, we’re not literally saying color feels a certain temperature, but…[Read more]

Scientific Pantheism January 20, 2018 @ 7:10 pmSam, I can see nothing scientific in the video and philosophy you described.
It is an example of non-scientific pantheism. Here\’s more about it from the website: -

Scientific Pantheism December 28, 2017 @ 3:23 pmHere is an ancient world-wide scientific approach to creation that is directly supported by Pantheism for those who don’t know about the ‘Flower of Life’.
Linked is a short 11 minute YouTube video explaining the basics of how Everything is connected by means of a scientific system through unified consciousness (even the invention of silly old…[Read more]

The ’God’ Word December 27, 2017 @ 10:55 amThe answer to everything lies beyond the limitations of discovery.
To answer the unanswerable is to manifest the fear of not knowing what you’ve secretly always known.

Agnostic Pantheism December 20, 2017 @ 5:36 pmAgnostic means anything from “I am pretty sure there is no creator God but I cannot 100% prove that” (and in that sense Dawkins calls himself an agnostic).
To “I am going to live as if there is a creator God but I am not 100% sure there is one.”
Calling oneself an agnostic pantheist would mean that you are (say) 99% pantheist but not…[Read more] -

The ’God’ Word November 28, 2017 @ 6:56 pmThis is from a book that I am writing…
I do not understand this assertion that evolution is dumb. I am consumed with the belief that it is exactly intelligent. Evolution inexplicably and incessantly expresses knowledge of the viable possibilities in nature through form and function in a seemingly predictive capacity as no selective breeding…[Read more]

The ’God’ Word October 26, 2017 @ 2:59 pmGod is a very accurate word for what the Universe is and it\’s time we pantheists used it more. Yes it carries with it connotation of a theistic God but that shouldn\’t be a reason to avoid \”God\”. We should take the word back!

After all, it is just a label we use to describe the indescribable thing that is the intertwined existence of everything we know to be ‘Life’.

Agnostic Pantheism October 26, 2017 @ 2:53 pmYou can’t be agnostic and pantheist anymore than you can be agnostic and christian or agnostic and muslim. I am a pantheist and i believe that there are NO supernatural beings or higher power above, behind, or below the universe. The universe already is that higher power and that’s what pantheists believe by definition. You can’t be a…[Read more]

Scientific Pantheism October 26, 2017 @ 2:48 pmIs anyone interested in discussing how scientific pantheism and atheism are polar opposites! And that we should stop presenting them as compatible.
-
Paul Harrison replied
Atheism (in current usage) = disbelief in a creator God or other type of supernatural god.
Scientific pantheism does not believe in those things. Ergo it is compatible with atheism – ie you can be an atheist and also a scientific pantheist.
However, that does not mean it is identical with or equivalent to atheism.
Atheism is simply a negative,…[Read more]
