Sal, a hypothetical question here: Omnia experiences biological life here on this planet, but it is not constrained by human qualities such as good and evil, right and wrong, etc. This would make Omnia seem totally amoral!
Yes or No?

Hello, Allan... Short answer: No — Omnia is not amoral.
Here’s the concise, “just-the-facts” explanation aligned with your dualistic BioPanentheism model:
1. Omnia is non-human, but not amoral.
Omnia doesn’t operate inside human moral categories (good/evil, right/wrong) because those categories are biological, cultural, and evolutionary constructs tied to human survival strategies.
But a lack of human morality doesn't mean a lack of any moral structure.
2. Omnia is governed by an intrinsic value-orientation built into the model.
In BioPanentheism, Omnia experiences reality through biological life.
That means its orientation is:
-
toward experience,
-
toward complexity,
-
toward conscious flourishing,
-
toward the expansion of sentient perspective.
Those constitute a kind of meta-ethic, not human-style morality.
It’s not amoral — it’s a-moral, meaning outside human moral categories, but still value-laden.
3. Omnia’s “moral direction” emerges from biology itself.
Because biology creates:
-
empathy
-
cooperation
-
reciprocity
-
aversion to harm
-
preference for well-being
Omnia’s experience is shaped by those biological constraints, which give it a natural ethical bias without imposing human rules.
Bottom line
If you want it even shorter:
No — Omnia isn’t amoral: It operates on a deeper, biological–experiential value structure... not human good/evil categories!
