Extracts from Pierre Teilhard's major works are presented to provide a basic understanding of his thought
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin was een Franse jezuïet, paleontoloog, bioloog en filosoof wiens werk religieuze ervaring trachtte te integreren met natuurwetenschap, met name christelijke theologie met evolutietheorieën. Hij was gefascineerd door de mogelijkheden voor de mensheid, die hij zag koersen op een opwindend convergentiepunt, een "Omega-punt", waar de samensmelting van bewustzijn zou leiden tot een nieuwe staat van vrede en planetaire eenheid. Lang voordat ecologie in de mode was, zag hij deze eenheid als intrinsiek gebaseerd op de geest van de Aarde. Zijn denken verkent de kruising van spiritualiteit en wetenschappelijke vooruitgang.
