what you capitalize all the common nouns like Nature and History, are those hegelalitarian/hegelistic/hegelism concepts that mean something beyond the cultural definition of the words. Have they been redefined to aid an his argument?
well... because this paper was only supposed to be 8 pages long, and it ended up being 10, i couldn't really go into extremely detailed explanations of these terms. so yes, they are Hegelian in the way i have used them here, and i briefly hit upon them in this sentence:
"This “God” is self-caused, and must achieve self-knowledge and true self-conscious freedom as a necessary characteristic of its essence. This means that “God” has to manifest itself in the form of the physical world, the living world that moves through time, or in other words Nature as a Whole. In the cycle of Nature, History is played out in the constant consumption of life, by life. Here the “idea in itself” becomes the “idea for itself” as Spirit transforms itself into a myriad of different “ways of being,” each of which naturally desires to achieve unity with itself, by returning to a verification of itself through the negation of an other in its environment
