Methexiology: Philosophical Theology and Theological Philosophy for the Deification of Humanity

Methexiology is not a particular theory but rather a general philosophical orientation. Therefore in Methexiology: Philosophical Theology and Theological Philosophy for the Deification of Humanity Nicolas Laos elucidates the significance of methexiology for the study of ontology epistemology ethics philosophical psychology theory of justice philosophy of history and philosophy of religion. Laos argues that faced with the modern and the postmodern crises of meaning we need a new myth a new spiritual formula for the resacralization of humanity and the cosmos without restoring defunct totems without using tales as cheap substitutes for the lack of a life-giving myth and without negating history. In his Methexiology Laos studies the genealogy of the modern and the postmodern crises of meaning and based on his new interpretation of classical Greek philosophy and Hesychasm proposes methexiology as a way of overcoming the crises of meaning and as a way of resacralizing humanity and the cosmos through a new metaphysically grounded humanism.
