One of the goals of the metaculture wiki is to provide a "mapping" between common spiritual and religious beliefs and sayings with their real-world analogs. This helps reinforce the truth behind these beliefs, while moving them from faith to certainty in the mind of the believer by providing the scientific evidence behind them.
The Language page discusses how this is a much more efficient method for rational reconstruction than one that abandons our traditional allegorical lexicon.
Read about the nature of traditional allegorical lexicons on the Religion, Scripture, Metanarrative, Dogma, and Canon pages.
Some examples of Metaphor Mapping are:
- Spirit as Emergence
- God, Pantheism, and the God Concept
- Sierpinski Trinity
- Fractal Tree of Knowledge
- Creation Story
- Afterlife, Heaven and Hell
- Apocalypse
- Stochastic Manifestation and Karma
Metamodern Christianity
The Metamodernism movement has extensive amounts of content that applies this type of self-aware approach to modern Christian beliefs and practices.
This one's a deep cut.
