 Hartshorne makes qualifications to Plato’s analogy. Whereas Plato apparently conceives the soul-body (or mind-body) relationship as a one-to-one relation, Hartshorne, following modern biology, argues that it is more plausible to construe it as a one-to-many relation. The human body is a hierarchical society of thousands of kinds of cells. Thus, Hartshorne maintains that God is related to the universe in a manner similar to the way that a person is related to the cells of his or her body. In an important respect, Whitehead can make a better claim than Hartshorne that the relationship of God to the World is one-to-many. Whitehead’s God is a single actual entity whereas Hartshorne’s God is a society. Thus, if it is a question of the relations of actual entities, then the God-to-World relation in Hartshorne’s theism is a many-to-many relation. Hartshorne’s point requires clarification: God, a single enduring object, is related to every non-divine actual entity and society. Clarity on this point brings out another comparison. By conceiving God as an actual entity, Whitehead weakens the analogy between God and a person. Donald Sherburne shows that in Whitehead’s metaphysics, persons are enduring objects of a specific type (Sherburne 1969). Therefore, Hartshorne’s view of God as an enduring object apparently provides more of a basis for speaking of God as a person.
