Further to the article by Soren Brier on Peirce as a panentheist, it’s a long
and, I think, well argued paper, but I particularly recommend the notes! As
Brier says, the argument is vs the ‘watchmaker God’ [ ie, the external
deterministic agent] but sees the universe as an evolutionary force within the
three categories and semiosic triads.
And see note 22 - vs ‘Concord transcendentalism’, or solely transcendentalism.
I note also, Brier’s comment that Peirce’s views are close to ‘quantum field
theory’ [ p 35]
And that Peirce believed in ‘creation ex nihilo [out of nothing] p 36.
