CYCLE 21
1. MODES OF FEMALE SALVATION. Women can be saved, noumenally,
from superfeminine personality to subfeminine
humility, and, phenomenally, from feminine sensuality to feminine chastity,
since in the former case they are progressing from Superheathen
evil to Superchristian good, whereas in the latter
case they are progressing from Heathen evil to Christian good. Thus, in the one case, from an absolute evil
to an absolute good ... as germane to noumenal
devolution, whilst, in the other case, from relative evil to relative good ...
as germane to phenomenal devolution.
2. MODES OF FEMALE DAMNATION. Conversely, women can be damned, noumenally, from subfeminine
humility to superfeminine personality, and,
phenomenally, from feminine chastity to feminine sensuality, since in the
former case they are regressing from Superchristian
good to Superheathen evil, whereas in the latter case
they are regressing from Christian good to Heathen evil. A regression, in other words, from absolute
good to absolute evil and from relative good to relative evil.
3. MODES OF MALE SALVATION. Men can be saved, noumenally,
from submasculine emotionality to supermasculine
universality, and, phenomenally, from masculine intellectuality to masculine
spirituality, since in the former case they are progressing from Superheathen evil to Superchristian
good, whereas in the latter case they are progressing from Heathen evil to
Christian good. Thus, in the one case,
from absolute evil to absolute good ... as germane to noumenal
evolution, whilst, in the other case, from relative evil to relative good ...
as germane to phenomenal evolution.
4. MODES OF MALE DAMNATION. Conversely, men can be damned, noumenally, from supermasculine
universality to submasculine emotionality, and,
phenomenally, from masculine spirituality to masculine intellectuality, since
in the former case they are regressing from Superchristian
good to Superheathen evil, whereas in the latter case
they are regressing from Christian good to Heathen evil. A regression, in other words, from absolute
good to absolute evil and from relative good to relative evil.
5. COMPARATIVE FEMALE DAMNATION. When we compare the genders, on the other
hand, the Christian/Superchristian females are
'damned' vis-à-vis their male counterparts, since the latter exist in a
Christian/Superchristian Heaven which is at a
masculine/supermasculine remove from feminine/subfeminine Hell.
6. COMPARATIVE MALE DAMNATION. Conversely, the Superheathen/Heathen
males are 'damned' vis-à-vis their female counterparts, since the latter exist
in a Superheathen/Heathen Hell which, existing at a superfeminine/feminine remove from submasculine/masculine
Heaven, has tended to be regarded in a superior, if not heavenly, light.
