Metaculture

To be perfectly clear, all references to metaculture refer to whatever work of philosophy or movement eventually captures the emergent synthesis of secular spirituality and creates a tipping point towards the goals described on the Main Page.
That means that this wiki may or may not accurately describe metaculture, depending on what form the next step in cultural evolution actually takes. Fortunately, there is an edit button if that happens.
metaculture represents the next major cultural attractor, similar in scale and inevitability to the shift from polytheism to monotheism that took place roughly 2,000 years ago. It is a self-organizing concept that emerges from the development of science and a globally-connected common culture facilitated by information technology.
It is inevitable because such shifts always occur whenever there is a significant increase in the number of people communicating with each other, and the speed with which they do so. The Internet and AI represent the biggest increase in human information processing history has ever seen.
The wiki describes an emergent meta-belief system encompassing many parallel efforts and commonly held ideas enabled by this communication. It tries to capture the essence what many people already believe, particularly the leading authors of popular science books, though no existing scripture or doctrine describes it fully. How could they if many of the key concepts (like fractal geometry and neuroscience) are just a few decades old?
To reinforce this notion, metaculture is referred to in the lower case, since it is a descriptive term rather than a name. Other than the title of this page, which is capitalized automatically by Wikipedia.
Yeah, Right
The authors are fully aware of the realistic probability of this project being the one that tips the scale, when so many millions of others are working towards similar goals. Nonetheless, it still needs to be done, and the wiki format provides a platform for open-source philosophy that no other authors or organizations have yet implemented when constructing a philosophical "theory of everything." As hard determinists, we find ourselves having little choice in the matter anyway.
There have been many wiki projects created to serve as open-source references, many books written on these subjects, many courses taught at universities, and fabulous art and music created to celebrate it. The metaculture wiki is unique in that it combines all of these elements into a single platform. This should make these ideas much more accessible by making them free to access and share, and organizing them into a consistent, holistic pattern that can still be fully consumed and understood by avoiding information overload.
Similar Philosophies
Within the realm of philosophy, Metamodernism [1], Spiritual Materialism [2], Poetic Naturalism and Meta-Naturalism, and Poetic Realism come the closet to describing this emergent perspective.
Teilhard de Chardin's cosmic theology and new age philosophies like Integral Theory also have many parallels, though metaculture will require firm scientific grounding in all of its principles in order to succeed. While metaculture "transcends and includes" scientific realism and postmodernism, it still prioritizes evidence and materialism over spiritual intuition to ensure cultural neutrality.
Brendan Graham Dempsey's Introduction to 'Emergentism: A Religion of Complexity for the Metamodern World' comes as close to summarizing this point of view as any single article.
There are also many authors, podcasts, and organizations that promote these values and ideas. However, there is no single work that brings together all of the key concepts that are necessary to understand it, and gives useful advice based on its conclusions. The wiki format is especially suited to this task.
The following chart from Bobby Azarian's Road to Omega Substack shows the relevant theoretical models that contribute to the unified theory of reality being presented.

There are also a number of so-called Secular Gurus, technology elites, and sacred geometry enthusiasts that advocate many of the same ideas, but diverge in some critical way. Many that claim allegiance to science and reason don't recognize the universal in-group and fail to embrace the oneness of humanity or the universality of love. Others get love and universalism right, but dabble in pseudoscience, woo, and grift that make them lose credibility. Then there are the amateur theories of everything.
As you read this wiki, you will find none of those shortcomings. If you do, please create an account and make an edit to fix it.
The Connections Are the Argument
Showing the connections and common patterns that underlie the concepts that metaculture is built on is the most persuasive argument. See the Connections page for details.
This is one reason that the wiki format is ideal for this project. This platform has many other advantages as well.
The thing that ties it all together is love.

Why Make a Wiki?

The wiki format was chosen to allow ongoing updates based on best practices from the latest widely accepted research, contributions from many people with different perspectives on the common goal, non-linear reading order, and direct links to detailed descriptions and research on any subject that the reader is unfamiliar with.
Advantages to this publishing style are detailed on the wiki page.
The wiki format also embodies the core values of science and self-correction. Where a book is static, a wiki is eternally editable, creating a canon that will never become dated and always follows the evidence.
The best way to read this wiki is to follow the links any time you have a question or a curiosity. You will eventually get back to where you left off. Topics with multiple references may require multiple readings. Use the Montessori approach to self-directed learning.
Hovering over the links with your mouse on desktop or using screen gestures will give you a preview of the first paragraph of each page and a thumbnail. This makes it much easier to stay on one page as you read and keep track of the ones you have already seen.
Why the Lower Case "m"?

metaculture is not a name for a particular philosophy. It is a common noun used to describe the emergent, global, common culture that will allow future generations to recognize their shared humanity and cooperate effectively while retaining long-held traditions, heritage and uniqueness. It represents the generalized sociological and psychological principles that underlie all human cultures, whatever those may be, rather than a specific theory about what those are.
Similarly, we know there are true laws of physics that govern the universe, and science can only improve our approximation of them over time. metaculture's current form is like the current state of science, with the common goal of better approximating the thing it seeks to describe by incorporating new evidence.
The lowercase m emphasizes the fact that metaculture is not the philosophy of any one person or group, but an abstract and inevitable concept that, whatever form it takes, will be the next step in cultural evolution. This wiki seeks to describe that thing, regardless of whether or not it significantly contributes to its emergence. Though it offers itself as an alternative among few viable candidates.
Likewise, references to god are also lower case to indicate the generic term for god and not the implied Judeo-Christian God that the capital "G" typically refers to.
Does using the lower case at the start of a sentence reinforce the notion of the common noun usage? Or does the distinct violation of language rules make it even more of a proper noun? We will not get into this.
Who Are We?
While some corporate ethics use pithy slogans like "don't be evil" that sound good but do little to help resolve modern moral dilemmas, Meta Enterprises is directly addressing the problem of evil by developing a universal ethical philosophy that resolves the conflict between science and religion. We also sell OCR solutions.
We are the good Meta. We are the original Meta. Since 1998.
While it was originally developed and hosted by Meta Enterprises, metaculture is not meant to represent the opinions or perspective of any individual, organization or ideology. Rather it is an attempt to describe the unwritten belief system that a growing number of secular universalists arrive at on their own each day.
As such, all authorship on this wiki will be anonymous, so that the ideas are separated from any personality or organization.

Focus on the 99%
Too many people focus on the 1% of subjects where they disagree while ignoring the 99% of subjects where common ground exists. The goal of this wiki is to describe the 99% of facts about reality that actually have broad general consensus when they are described in ways that don't trigger in-group identities.
