When educational practices derived from Freire are applied to young children, they cross into ideological/political grooming because the developmental & power dynamics between student & teacher are fundamentally different from those of adult education. #CriticalConsciousness

One thing to remember about Paulo Freire’s pedagogy is that he was primarily an adult educator, this matters when evaluating what changes drastically when what he promoted is practiced on children.

A Dialectical Theology of Becoming: Process, Praxis, Consciousness, Symbolic Mediation, & God as Emergent Historical Process Does this seem like a good topic for something a little more substantial than what I’ve been half-assing with my posts on here?

#CriticalConsciousness is one of the strongest modern examples of a dialectical theology of becoming because it explicitly integrates dialectics, praxis, historical transformation, & symbolically mediated, co-created consciousness.

Some common attributes of a dialectical god system: 1. Dynamic, not static. 2. Self-revealing through contradiction 3. Both transcendent & immanent 4. Relational (Co-) 5. History has theological significance 6. Freedom is essential (“choice”) 7. Unity through reconciliation

In the end, this religious becoming is never a static belief but is instead a continuous mediated participation. It creates a world where consciousness is always becoming, reality is always unfolding, & meaning is always being co-created through reflective transformative action.

@PawsitiveVybe @nyuckie_yucks Dualism tends to set right & wrong categories but at least they are stable & mostly static. That is not the case with the other two,they are fluid & can change depending on what time it is, dualism kind of locks in a mediation, the other 2 allows for remediation whenever 🧙‍♂️ wants

@PawsitiveVybe @nyuckie_yucks Understanding how Z⭕️MA aligns with duality & dynamic/dialectical one, rather than being strict dualism, which would be the way ortho/exoteric Zoroastrianism & Manicheism is usually represented, is one of the many reasons why I keep wanting to use that framework.

Tired of “manichean” being used as a synonym for a dualistic thought system that has a strict separation of opposites. Doing so is pretty deceptive whether or not the person doing it intends to perpetuate that deception & it also leads to dialectical thought getting misunderstood

@PawsitiveVybe That’s it, & by choosing it acts like participating does & creates a kind of a seal on the mind about the choice made. It sets potential bounds of the choices & frames them as either right or wrong, true or lie, good or evil. Most choose the “good” side but any choice is useful.

Why do modern thinkers use the language of dualism rhetorically while their own philosophical method depends on a deeper relational or dialectical structure.The modern meaning of "Manichean" obscures this distinction by treating all opposition as static & not a dynamic separation
