In any case, in the following paragraphs I will first analyze Whitehead's remarks in
Process and Reality on societies
as the necessary environment for the ongoing emergence of
actual occasions and then show how this analysis throws unexpected light on Whitehead's further explanation of the hierarchy of societies within the current world order, in particular, the difference between inorganic and organic societies, and, among organic societies, those with a «soul» or «living person» and those without such a central organ of control.
Primitively time has the character of
process, which has «creativity»
as its essence and reveals itself in the becoming of
actual occasions (PR 31f).

His rejection of independently existing substance in favor of a universe in which all entities are related, the idea of
actual entities
as valuing subjects prehending and creating themselves Out of the feelings of other subjects, the declaration that the most basic form of order is aesthetic, and the insistence that the lure toward beauty and adventure is a primary drive in the
process of reality, are all examples of Whitehead's fundamental insight that to be is to be related, to exhibit some degree of beauty in those relationships, and to have the power both to affect and to be affected.
Moreover, I regard the Incarnation
as a historical movement and
process; it does not reveal the illusory opposition between God and the world, but rather effects an
actual reconciliation between estranged and alienated opposites, between an alien and transcendent form of God that is estranged from the world and a fallen and broken form of the world that is estranged from God.

If
process is a whole with parts, the meaning of «process» as temporal extension can not be a growing together of parts into a whole, or the «concrescence of many potentials» (Process 22), because the «togetherness of things» in the occasion of experience (Adventures 234) is already established as the actual entity begins since «relationship is not a uni

Process 22), because the «togetherness of things» in the occasion of experience (Adventures 234) is already established
as the
actual entity begins since «relationship is not a universal.
This is the sense in which «a fact can harbor potentiality» (Adventures 138): All objects that exist are
actual either (1)
as determinate, satisfied
processes physically felt, or (2)
as indeterminate objects created in the present and conceptually felt in the present — by what Whitehead would call Valuation (also Reproduction and Conformity) and Reversion —
as the present whole weighs somewhat general and indeterminate alternatives for its satisfaction.
So, if a satisfied
actual entity is objectified (
as it must be), it is a part in another
process / whole.
As I understand it, the relevant features of a «proposition» are these: A «proposition» is a «concrete possibility; it is abstracted from some objective event in the actual world; it is proposed as a possibility that an entity may want to consider for itself in a future moment in its process of self - creation; it is apprehended by the entity in «feeling» and so is preconceptual and largely preconsciously apprehended; it stands in a complex of relationships with other «propositions,» and the set of propositions presupposes a systematic universe; its «interest» (as «lure») is more important than its «truth.&raqu

An
actual entity
as a «self - creation is separate and private» (Adventures 198); any changes to its parts and it would not be the same actuality (
Process 288).
When he says creativity «is that ultimate principle by which the many, which are the universe disjunctively, become the one
actual occasion, which is the universe conjunctively» (
Process 21), is he saying the members of the multiplicity (that an
actual entity prehends) are parts of one whole
as it begins its concrescence, or is he saying they do not become parts of a whole until the
actual entity reaches its satisfaction?
Let me proceed to argue the point, first by a theoretical analysis of the nature of evolutionary time, contrasting it with the hellenic view of time, and second by a confirmation and verification of this analysis of evolutionary time
as non-contingent and immanent by observing the
actual process of evolution itself.
Just
as potentiality for
process is the meaning of the more general term «entity» or «thing,» so «decision» is the added meaning of the word «

The problem for Nature,
as he describes it in
Process and Reality (Part II, Chapter III, Section VII) is to produce societies which can survive through time but which do not sacrifice all opportunity amongst their constituent
actual occasions for what he called «intensity» of experience.
Just
as there is a temporal ordering of all of the
actual occasions in the universe, so there is a temporal ordering of prehensions in the
process of concrescence of each individual
actual occasion.
As it moves through the
process of becoming a specific and complete something in the world, the
actual occasion exhibits the character of a decision system.
His task, therefore, is one of analyzing,
as clearly and completely
as possible, the irreducible unit of
process, the
actual occasion.
The tension I have in mind is generated by (i) this
process of temporally ordered
actual occasions articulating his vision of the metaphysical ultimatum — atomism — and (ii) the complex product of this
process which he so obviously cherished
as an organic interconnectedness — the web of interrelations which comprise a world so badly misunderstood by the science Whitehead himself prehended from out of his immediate past.
During the present (
actual) occasion of my experience — the one that is (
as I am writing this paper) presently coming into being through a
process of concrescence — one of my intellectual feelings is presently coming into being through the integration of past feelings (i.e., ones that came into being earlier in that
process of concrescence).
It is that, while Laszlo centers upon patterns of structure and relationship which are reiterated throughout the hierarchy of entities of the world, Whitehead focuses on a primordial type of entity, the
actual occasion, whose basic
processes are found only in its kind and not reiterated in larger arrangements such
as nexus and societies.
If God were then conceived
as having physical prehensions of the temporal world, «the primordial
actual entity» would be a strange and inexact way of referring to the God of
process theism.
This view, at any rate, is the only one compatible with saying,
as Whitehead does say, that an entity which is
actual, is
actual regardless of whether its present existence is that of a subject enjoying the universe from which it arises or that of a superject functioning objectively in subsequent
processes.
Indeed, if we may understand prehensions
as signals, and the ingression of prehensions
as the initial phase in a selective
process of self - actualization, then an
actual occasion consists purely of information.
We, however, have also argued that there is another kind of
actual occasion, though at the same scale
as quantum events, responding to the elemental and fundamental beats, musical lures, basic rhythms constitutive of cosmic order; in time, we believe that new sciences, such
as chronobiology, will shed light on this
process.
As a result of the process of concrete relationality, qualities emerge as bridges linking this event to that; relating individuals to each other by way of sympathetic social feeling; binding the values of the past to the exigencies of the present; connecting through action what is ideal to what is immediate and actua

Whitehead insisted that «this final phase of passage in God's nature is ever enlarging itself» (PR 530 — italics mine), that it is «an unresting advance beyond itself» (PR 531 — italics mine), that «the actuality of God must also be understood
as a multiplicity of
actual components in
process of creation (PR 531 — italics mine) and that «in every respect God and the World move conversely to each other in respect to their
process» (PR 529 — italics mine).
Just
as the temporal order of
actual occasions is the order of their acts of becoming, so the temporal order of prehensions in the
process of concrescence is the order of their becoming.13
And, if the sequence of past events is infinite in extension and is always so relative to any designated present,
as process philosophers assume, then, in conjunction with the above, there must be at least one
actual event O which is infinitely past relative to some designated present event E. 3
