A Review and Critique of Quantum Consciousness on a Universal Scale: Thomas Seguin, in Contrast with the Logos-Centred Philosophy of S. C. Sayles
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Thomas Seguin’s Quantum Consciousness on a Universal Scale presents an ambitious integrative vision of reality, combining quantum mechanics, information theory, and philosophical speculation to argue that consciousness is not a local anomaly but a universal dynamic. Seguin’s notion of the Quantum Informational Field (QIF) aims to unite cosmology and psychology by redefining gravity, space-time curvature, and informational linkage. This review offers a sustained academic critique of Seguin’s thesis, situating it in dialogue with the Logos-centred metaphysical anthropology of S. C. Sayles. While both thinkers converge in affirming the primacy of information and the structural significance of consciousness, their frameworks diverge radically in ontology, anthropology, epistemology, and theology. Seguin’s immanentist cosmology risks collapsing into pantheism, reducing consciousness to emergent thresholds of informational density. Sayles, in contrast, grounds information in the eternal Logos, distinguishes the Second Shamay (Gen. 1:1) from the souls created in the third bara (Gen. 1:27), and upholds a Christocentric teleology. Ultimately, this paper argues that Sayles’ Logos-centred model provides a more coherent and enduring framework for uniting cosmology, anthropology, and theology.
