Abstract

The preceding critical analysis has addressed significant problems in the writings of the New Atheists concerning the omission of the study of religious violence as a natural phenomenon, namely, as biotic violence, in their project to study religion as a natural phenomenon, as well as their lack of development of a comprehensive evolutionary ethic. As a response to these lacunae, from the perspective of Whitehead's philosophy of organism, it has alluded to the notion that organic selectivity, as a function of natural selection, is at the root of biotic violence in general. It further argues for an ethical stance that is based on the concept of "nonreductionistic critical panselectionism," standing for the notion that selectivity is part of the very fabric of the experience of organism in general, but which holds that if humanity wished to build a harmonious, peaceful, global civilization, every human being must engage in a continuous critical reflection on their own selective activities and on their impacts on other organisms.
