Great post! What I'm hoping is that the strict materialist are mistaken and consciousness itself is in the process of mutation. From: archaic, magical, mythical, rational--to the age imagined by many sages called Integral.
But the process is best likened to a chrysalis and the birth is long and painful and can't be interfered with as it will all too easily kill the emerging life as it struggles to metamorphosize.
What we are seeing and experiencing today is the rational structure of consciousness experiencing a deficient phase as its reduced all life to objects of exploitation.
It isn't clear what the outcome will be and there is no one sure answer. I hope for a fully spiritualized atheism with new economic and social structures not premised on misanthropy.
There are many intuiting this and places to research are Jean Gebser's, EverPresentOrigin...Along with the more controversial Wilber view. IntegralLife...
Hang in there! We are in for a hell of a birth!
