Articles of category "Teleology"

The easiest way to describe teleology is to compare it to the word fate. Someone that believes in teleology believes in a grand design. They believe that God or an external force control things that happen here on Earth. Teleology simply refers to the grand design that created the universe. Nothing happens accidentally. Nothing is a coincidence. Everything happens for a reason, is predetermined, and therefore can be read. Were it not for a belief in teleology, fortune telling would not be possible.

When people believe in a philosophical naturalism they see the whole world as being a part of the spirit realm. The philosophical naturalism therefore has many spirits among the people. The purpose of the Universe is all the beings thoughts. The purpose of the Universe is to collectively cause things to happen because they all believe that it will. With all the thoughts there is some type of power in the purpose of the Universe.
