Classic term for question: Theogony<\/span>\n <\/div>\n
Quick-formulation of Summa\u2019<\/span>s r<\/span>esponse: Quest for\n <\/div>\n
Potential is transcendent and overarching and
\n in\ue0c4nite.\n <\/div>\n
Potential was the catalyst for life and sustains
\n it.\n <\/div>\n
Consequently<\/span>, by
\n de\ue0c4nition, Quest for Potential quali\ue0c4es\n <\/div>\n
as a \u201cdivine dynamic,\u201d albeit not a deity<\/span>.\n <\/div>\n
Whether or not this dynamic is a \u201creligious
\n divine\u201d\n <\/div>\n
manifested in the classic God of Israel or related,
\n is open\n <\/div>\n
to debate. Summa very carefully takes no position on
\n this\n <\/div>\n
particular debate.<\/div>\n
Note that the \u201creligious version\u201d would not be as\n <\/div>\n
metaphysically lean (pure) as the non-r<\/span>eligious position.\n <\/div>\n
On the other hand, the \u201creligious version\u201d is
\n mor<\/span>e\n <\/div>\n
textured, and, of course, has the not insigni\ue0c4cant
\n potential\n <\/div>\n
cosmic bene\ue0c4t of greater \u201cspiritual potential.\u201d\n <\/div>\n
From his per<\/span>ch as a
\n metaphysics writer<\/span>, the author\n <\/div>\n
believes that either position is viable, as in any
\n event it is\n <\/div>\n
anchored by In\ue0c4nite Potential.<\/div>\n

Components of the Summa hypothesis as regar<\/span>ds this\n <\/div>\n
question:<\/div>\n
We ar<\/span>e all an integral

Thus, we are all simultaneously both mortal \u2013 and
\n divine.\n <\/div>\n
Through a theistic lens \u2013<\/div>\n
