SUMMARY:Science and Religion in a Participatory Cosmos
DESCRIPTION:Join us Wednesday\, March 19\, at 7 p.m. ET for a Center for Christogenesis webinar with philosopher and process thinker Matthew David Segall. \nThis talk explores the evolving relationship between natural science and theology through the lens of process philosophy\, arguing that both disciplines—often seen as conflicting ways of knowing and worldviews—can be reframed and integrated within a participatory understanding of the cosmos.  \nDrawing on Alfred North Whitehead’s organic realism\, as well as kindred thinkers like Schelling and Teilhard de Chardin\, the presentation will critique the bifurcation of nature that underlies the dominant scientific materialist paradigm and instead offer an onto-epistemology in which experience\, creativity\, and relationality are fundamental.  \nBy engaging with contemporary developments in quantum physics\, complexity science\, and process/open and relational theology\, this talk aims to demonstrate how a participatory cosmology can bridge the divide between scientific empiricism and mystical experience. \nAbout Matthew David Segall\nMatthew David Segall\, PhD\, is a philosopher\, educator\, and transdisciplinary researcher specializing in process philosophy and the intersection of science and spirituality. His scholarship focuses the implications of Alfred North Whitehead’s organic realism for contemporary natural scientific and philosophical discourse\, emphasizing the participatory nature of knowledge and reality. He is currently co-editing a special issue of the journal Religions titled “Cosmology\, Creation\, and Divine Agency: Bridging Scientific Theories and Theology.” His most recent book is titled Crossing the Threshold: Etheric Imagination in the Post-Kantian Process Philosophy of Schelling and Whitehead (Integral Imprint\, 2023). He blogs regularly at Footnotes2Plato.com. \nThe recording will be available to all registrants within two weeks of the event.
