Evolutionaries (book by Carter Phipps)

http://www.amazon.com/dp/0061916137

Carter Phipps proposes a new "evolutionary spirituality":
"This new spirituality is distinct from both traditional religious theism and the anything-goes "spiritual but not religious" pluralism more common in progressive culture. Evolutionary spirituality is evolution-inspired, world-embracing, and future-oriented. It is a creative, anticipatory spiritual path in which salvation, however we define the word, is to be found not in connection to the ancestral spirits of yesteryear, in promises of a  heavenly beyond, in achieving a transcendent state of inner peace, or even letting go into a timeless present, but in fully embracing the emergent potent contained in the depths of an evolving cosmos."
