    Burgy asked for comments on the work of my friend, David Griffin, one of the
    premier advocates of process theism (a position I have little sympathy for
    myself). Yes, he is a Whiteheadian. His view of God is much like that of
    the Stoics, who saw God as the world soul but not the actual maker of heaven
    and earth. For more on his thought, which is invariably expressed clearly
    and honestly in his many writings, see his excellent little summary on
    process philosophy and theology in the new Garland encyclopedia, Religion
    and Science in the Western Tradition.
