I can't keep up with you, Matthew, especially since I've now found myself reading Modes of Thought. (A Whitehead quote, combined with some old habits from St. John's, made me think huh, Whitehead seems to be quite a writer, and he wrote in English—time to try an original source.)
But your remarks here are short and there's a transcript.
While you have the amazing ability to explicate the development of Whitehead's thought, I'm marveling at my own thought processes. Modes of Thought is making sense to me, a lot of sense. Maybe we can't think twice, but my new levels of comprehension are due to the thinking and reading I did a long time ago as a Johnnie and at Union Theological, followed by just living, and then plunging back into philosophy and theology during Covid.
If this is the Whiteheadian century, the challenge will be open new doors to religious awareness in this overly-rational, AI-obsessed culture. (Maybe r/atheism needs some subtle apologetics which they won't be able to recognize as proselytizing)
