SUMMARY:John Cobb & Friends Gathering: Jared Morningstar
DESCRIPTION:Topic: Process and Neoplatonic Theologies: Panentheism\, Theodicy\, and Ecology \n\n\n\nPresenters: Jared Morningstar \n\n\n\nIn this presentation\, Jared Morningstar will explore the resonances and contrasts between process theism and theologies influenced by Neoplatonic thought. He will show how Neoplatonic theologies think about the Divine and the cosmos in valuable ways that are distinct from the rigid “classical theism” process thinkers rightly critique.  Jared will explore the valuable contributions Neoplatonic thought can have on areas of concern for process thinkers such as the God-world relation\, the problem of evil\, and ecological awareness. He will also suggest ways that Neoplatonic and process perspectives can balance each others’ weaknesses and blindspots.  \n\n\n\nJared is an independent scholar living in Madison\, Wisconsin with academic interests in philosophy of religion\, Islamic studies\, comparative religion\, metamodern spirituality\, and interfaith dialogue. His work in these areas seeks to offer robust responses to issues of inter-religious conflict\, contemporary nihilism\, and the “meaning crisis\,” among other things. Jared graduated from Gustavus Adolphus College in 2018 with degrees in religion and Scandinavian studies and currently works for the Center for Process Studies\, the Cobb Institute\, and the Psychedelic Medicine Association.  \n\n\n\nTo get a head start exploring Jared’s topic for the day\, download his more detailed description.  Also\, he suggests these relevant resources:   \n\n\n\nParsing Process and Traditional Theodicies: A Hope for Synthesis and Collaboration; \n\n\n\nSeeing Beauty in All People through the Mystical Philosophy of Plotinus (on Open Horizons). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo receive the Zoom info for this gathering\, click the Going button and enter your name and email.  \n\n\n\n\n\nIf you would like to receive regular announcements and updates about activities and events at the Cobb Institute\, please join our list of Friends. \n\n\n\nCan’t make it to the live session?
