RT @nick_routledge: @SabineVdL @Plough To borrow Catherine Keller's term, consciousness isn’t a lonely spark but the local flare of an 'intercarnational' self—a fully entangled, co-evolving nexus through which the universe individuates, feels, thinks, and then diffuses again into the wider weave of relations.

Conscience, a universal human endowment, is the supernatural virtue of authenticity in the domain of thought, a vector of divine presence and purpose, and an embodied conduit whereby divine guidance infuses and transforms history and reality in its co-creative lure. t.co/C6FWBMZt8f

In effect, the conscience-driven life defines an activated suprapersonal, suprahistorical power and intelligence whereby God becomes 'intercarnational' (Catherine Keller) as 'an immanent historical dynamism transforming all of created reality' (Bruno Barnhart).
