A diverse collection of articles being completed by authors from all over the world on the resurging theological theory of Pandeism.
"Pandeism: An Anthology is a collection of articles by more than a dozen authors, from all over the world, presenting diverse viewpoints on the theological theory of Pandeism. This Kickstarter is not simply funding a book and a writing competition, but bringing about awareness that spirituality can be more than a binary option. We need your help to show that there's more than just the endless argument between Atheism and Theism. Even if you disagree with the proposition we discuss, you can help others to learn about the range of options which do exist. We would prefer 2,450 aware supporters pledging a dollar apiece than a dozen supporters carrying the whole load, but we recognize that this is not typical or likely. We are extremely appreciative of those who do more -- most especially those who use this Kickstarter as a venue to get the book itself.
Our Book:
This theory seeks to reconcile aspects of Pantheism and Deism, proposing as a logical possibility that we are all part of a Creator which became our Universe to experience existence through our lives. This theory is proposed to be a more elegant and parsimonious model than theistic faiths, with implications argued to be more conducive to the promotion of a framework of peace.
This anthology is the first of its kind -- though Pandeism has been identified in philosophies going back thousands of years, was first identified as a formal theological category over 150 years ago, and has been touched on by dozens of writers, it has not itself been the subject of a book dedicated to examining it for over a hundred years. It is important to note that though all of these articles are in some way or another about Pandeism, they are not all advocating of the theory -- indeed, we as compilers as well as writers have taken the unusual step of intently soliciting and receiving commitments from Atheist and Theist authors offering their critical views on Pandeism.
Authors who have committed articles to this book include an outstanding group of contributors to a variety of areas of philosophical thought:
Michael Arnheim (barrister and Deist, United Kingdom)
Robert G. Brown (physicist and philosopher, United States)
Dan Dana (Atheist writer, United States)
Alan Dawe (author of the award-winning "The God Franchise," New Zealand)
Orlando Alcántara Fernández (Christian poet, Dominican Republic)
Ismaili Gnosis (Muslim Neoplatonist philosopher)
Phillip Alexander Jones (Pandeist transhumanist, United Kingdom)
Bernardo Kastrup (computer scientist and philosopher of consciousness, Netherlands)
William C. Lane (lawyer and philosopher, United States)
Knujon Mapson (Pandeist philosopher, United States)
Poffo Ortiz (Biopantheist author and artist, United States)
Anthony Peake (Author and lecturer on consciousness, United Kingdom)
Amy Perry (transcendental poet, United States)
Sushma Sahajpal (Hindu interfaith educator, United Kingdom)
Julian West (historian of mythology, United States)
Though we consider this to be a quite thorough and compelling collection, we remain open to outstanding submissions from other excellent authors."
