Relevancy22: Contemporary Process Christianity: Post-Evangelic Topics and Theology: Can Process Theology Intersect with American Evangelical Politics?

Can Process Theology Intersect with

American Evangelical Politics?

Here is a short list I quickly jotted down earlier this morning on why Process Christianity capably replaces both Evangelical Christianity and Progressive-Evangelical Christianity:

Process-based Christianity (sic, Whitehead & Cobb) has a more expansive theology removing artificial / subjective boundaries between its message and people.

Process Christianity places God's love at its center rail across all subjects, faiths, and cultures;

Process Christianity's judgments fall across the lives of religionists, moralists, and exclusionists; that is, like Jesus, it is intolerant of fake religion placing unnecessary burdens upon God's people;

Process Christianity seeks an organic, holistic approach to life;

Process Christianity lives out life as fully as possible with all others as love is suppose to do;

Process Christianity supports all true democratic principles such as equitable justice and seeks to remove systemic racism of all kinds;

Process Christianity practices what Jesus taught and exampled;

Process Christianity places the God of Love at its center of faith and all its beliefs, doctrines, theologies, and dogmas;

Process Christianity reads the narratives of the Bible as the failure of religionists who could not grasp the centrality of God's love in this life; how faith in God was not meant to yoke one another by unloving means; who constructed, and lived, in unlovingly ways; who preached harm and did awful things to their communities, neighbors, families, and society at large;

Process Christianity sees true faith as love in action and all other non-loving faiths as reconstructionist faith-based idolatries away from the God of love;

Process Christianity sees a future open to the infinite possibilities of love as it concresces forwards in innumerable permutations of love in action (sic, processual concrescence refers to "a valuative growing together" of selfhood in dynamic relationship with all societal members; to coalesce, condense, solidify in good and generative ways);

Process Christianity actively supports and creates ecologically good societies in balanced resource-sharing with all global communities in coordinating earth-restoration actions;

Process Christianity seeks to keep the attitudes of uncertainty and doubt at its epistemological center that it might healthily expand itself philosophically, theologically, culturally, and religiously in active embrace of upwardly generative practices of self-examination, proposition, speculation, and knowledge underlaid by valuative love;

Plus everything else I failed to mentioned here....

Process Christianity is the next processual revolution in the historic faith journey of man stripped of the unChristian philosophies of Hellenism, Westernism, and any-and-all myopic acculturations of faith.

Dear Rachel called it many, many years ago. The church didn't like her message and chose indifference instead of repentance. When they did pretend to repent on Washington Square they prayed to a God of power and vengeance to send them a man after their own heart. Instead of David they got Saul. Instead of Jesus they enthroned another AntiChrist. They came to serve not their nation but themselves, their own comforts, beliefs, and bigotries. - res
