In biology the word autogenesis has been used to describe two similar concepts:
Orthogenesis - a discredited evolutionary idea that hypothesised a directed 'teleological' form of evolution.
Autogenesis may also have been used to mean a combination of the two, a purposeful, directed or 'special creation' abiogenesis event, the product of which undergoes orthogenesis.
Orthogenesis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1446 words)
Orthogenesis, orthogenetic evolution or autogenesis, is the hypothesis that life has an innate tendency to move in a unilinear fashion due to some internal or external "driving force".
The hypothesis is based on essentialism, finalism and cosmic teleology and proposes an intrinsic drive which slowly transforms species.
Autogenesis is a specific version of orthogenesis which also incorporates spontaneous generation, the refuted hypothesis that each species is created by its own abiogenesis or special creation event.
