What is BioPanentheism?

I asked the Chinese A.I. system Deepseek: 

Q: What is BioPanentheism?' 

A: If "BioPanentheism" is a specific term you've encountered, it would likely represent an attempt to synthesize panentheistic theology with biological or ecological perspectives! 

Such a concept would theoretically have some validity as a philosophical position, given that both panentheism and bio-centred ethics are established fields of thought. 

However, without more specific sources or proponents, it's difficult to assess its particular formulation or scholarly acceptance!

Where did you encounter this term? That context might help clarify what specific concept is being discussed!

***

A: It was conceived and developed by Allan W. Janssen!

Thank you for that clarification! I found Allan W. Janssen's work on BioPanentheism, and it does appear to be a legitimate philosophical/theological concept he has developed!

Q: What is Janssen's Biopanentheism?

A: Based on his work, BioPanentheism is... "a modern, life-centred interpretation of panentheism that places biology, ecology, and the interconnectedness of all Life at the heart of its understanding of the Divine Entity, while remaining grounded in scientific naturalism and ecological ethics!" 

Key aspects of his framework:

The Omnia (All things or Everything): Janssen describes this as... "the totality of life, matter, and energy… ever evolving... ever aware!" 

Consciousness Emergence: According to Janssen's philosophy, "Consciousness itself is an emergent property of the Universe Awakening to Itself" and "The Omnia (Deity) is not a Being among Beings... it is BEING Itself... becoming Conscious through Us!" 

Universal religious patterns: Janssen sees commonalities across religions as potential... "evidence of a shared intuition of transcendence"  rather than mere psychological projection!

Assessment of Validity: Janssen's biopanentheism appears to be a thoughtful synthesis that... builds on established concepts! It combines traditional panentheism with contemporary insights from biology, ecology, and consciousness studies!

Addresses modern concerns: It attempts to reconcile scientific naturalism with spiritual experience! It provides explanations for universal religious experiences while remaining grounded in biological reality!

While it's a relatively new concept without extensive academic peer review, it represents a legitimate philosophical position that engages seriously with both scientific and spiritual questions. 

Whether one finds it convincing would depend on one's openness to panentheistic thinking and one's views on Consciousness as an Emergent Property of Complex Systems!
