Summary: | Widespread acceptance of Hartshornes "correction" of Whitehead s notion of God inhibited continuing exploration of Whitehead’s own vision of Godas a single entity in which the physical and mental poles are reversed. As a result, the implications of this reversed concrescence have been paid scant attention. Whitehead himself did little more than hintat the consequences. My thesis is that consideration of a reversed concrescence highlights the essential dynamism of God as a whole, including the primordial nature, and has implications for the provision of initial aims for the world. |
