Reflections on the Gospels
"The initial quantum of consciousness contained in our terrestrial world is not formed simply from an aggregate of parcels fortuitously caught in the same net. It represents an interdependent mass of infinitesimal centers structurally interconnected by their conditions of origin and their development (Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, The Human Phenomenon tr. Appleton-Weber, 38)."
Dr. Riegel's Comments
Concerning Teilhard's Vision: "You might say---what his scientific insight requires is just what his xn. (christian) faith reveals (Hill School Lesson, 1979)."
Arsitotle's Notion of 'Entelechia'
I find the underpinnings of Teilhard's 'noosphere' in Aristotle's notion of 'entelechia'.
