"Telic:A central argument of Teleology says that the world has clearly been constructed in a purposeful telic rather than a chaotic manner, and must therefore have been made by a rational being, i.e. God"

Someone's been using psychatelic drugs, methinks.

I'm familiar with teleology and telos, but telic is new to me. Is sounds like an adjective but was used like a noun. Any guidance?

It's explained in the article.

All I could find in the article was that Telic (with capital) was the code name for the British operations in Iraq. Off to the Wiki for me, I guess.
