Frasi di Pierre Teilhard De Chardin
pagina 2

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin è stato un gesuita, filosofo e paleontologo francese.

Se fu conosciuto in vita soprattutto come scienziato evoluzionista, ebbe notorietà come teologo soltanto dopo la pubblicazione postuma dei suoi principali scritti, tra i quali spiccano Il fenomeno umano , L'energia umana, L'apparizione dell'uomo e L'avvenire dell'uomo che parimenti descrivono le sue convinzioni teologiche e scientifiche.

In qualità di paleoantropologo fu anche presente alla scoperta dell'Uomo di Pechino. La scoperta del Teilhard teologo avvenne successivamente; Giancarlo Vigorelli in un suo libro del 1963 lo definisce già nel titolo "il gesuita proibito". Wikipedia

“The future is more beautiful than all the pasts.”

“We are like soldiers who fall during the assault which leads to peace.”

The Divinisation of Our Activities, p. 85
The Divine Milieu (1960)

“However convergent it be, evolution cannot attain to fulfilment on earth except through a point of dissociation. With this we are introduced to a fantastic and inevitable event which now begins to take shape in our perspective, the event which comes nearer with every day that passes: the end of all life on our globe, the death of the planet, the ultimate phase of the phenomenon of man. …
Now when sufficient elements have sufficiently agglomerated, this essentially convergent movement will attain such intensity and such quality that mankind, taken as a whole, will be obliged—as happened to the individual forces of instinct—to reflect upon itself at a single point; that is to say, in this case, to abandon its organo-planetary foothold so as to shift its centre on to the transcendent centre of its increasing concentration. This will be the end and the fulfilment of the spirit of the earth.
The end of the world: the wholesale internal introversion upon itself of the noosphere, which has simultaneously reached the uttermost limit of its complexity and its centrality.
The end of the world: the overthrow of equilibrium, detaching the mind, fulfilled at last, from its material matrix, so that it will henceforth rest with all its weight on God-Omega. …
Are we to foresee man seeking to fulfil himself collectively upon himself, or personally on a greater than himself? Refusal or acceptance of Omega? … Universal love would only vivify and detach finally a fraction of the noosphere so as to consummate it—the part which decided to "cross the threshold", to get outside itself into the other. …
The death of the materially exhausted planet; the split of the noosphere, divided on the form to be given to its unity; and simultaneously (endowing the event with all its significance and with all its value) the liberation of that percentage of the universe which, across time, space and evil, will have succeeded in laboriously synthesising itself to the very end. Not an indefinite progress, which is an hypothesis contradicted by the convergent nature of noogenesis, but an ecstasy transcending the dimensions and the framework of the visible universe.”
