  1. When we talk of god we need to think of the evolution of the concept of god. We need to examine the world's religions redefining norms and rethinking the attributes of god/gods. If we study the history of religion we see the evolution of the notion of god from many to one, from women to men, from concrete concepts to abstract ones. God then is a poorly defined notion but we can be scientific and accurate by admitting that the concept is evolutionary and in the evolution we may note two features: One is that religions improved in norms of kindness and the other that they improved in abstraction of the divine. The Abrahamic notion of the father son covenant is an improvement over the Oedipus complex of the Greek infanticidal and patricidal gods. So is the notion of 12 Greek Olympians becoming a single authority. Monotheism evolved from being anthropomorphic to being the abstraction of the worship of the process, we can call it the worship of the unit order, monas. To be truly moral we need to reach beyond the limitations of our religions and their obsolete norms, we need to evolve faith in an order or god that is completely abstract and formal. God is real if theism can be defined by science with the formulas of the process. In my recent book I crossed the last frontier of science by identifying the unconscious, a psychological adjustment mechanism, as a universal harmonic of emotions, resolving conflicts. My god is the projection of this inner order to an outer one, which we can all be ecstatic about. But deep down it is our unconscious, conflict resolution adjustment mechanism. Morality is a natural science phenomenon. Religions gradually discovered this process, mystified it and deified it and monopolized their findings in a supremacist manner. Read the validation of the Formal Theory of Behavior through the art exhibits of the Museum of the Creative Process. There you will see how religions discovered the science of the unconscious conflict resolution process ahead of psychology. Now though we know all religions are psychological adaptive sociological phenomena with many limitations. They have evolved norms or conflict resolutions on how to make society into fair and just systems. But their discoveries are partial and complementary of a certain scientific mechanism. Science now captures this mechanism and asks religions to be accountable to natural law. Science like Prometheus has stolen the fire of the gods and is now seeking to heal the world. Albert Levis
