CYCLE THREE
1. The God of the Old Testament is Jehovah, whereas
the God of the New Testament is Jesus Christ.
2. Jesus Christ is the Son of God the Father,
but the Father is not Jehovah!
3. Jehovah could no more
have a Son, in the sense of Christ, than the Father could have a moon.
4. The Son, in the
sense of Christ, is only possible to the Father on the basis of a loving
relationship with the Mother; for all three deities are necessarily omega
postulates.
5. It would of course be possible for the Antison, or Antichrist, to stem from the Antifather, or Satan, on the basis of a lustful
relationship with the Antimother, or Cursed Whore;
for all three antideities would be alpha postulates.
6. Yet such an Antifather,
corresponding to solar naturalism, would not be Jehovah, since the God of the
Old Testament is an antispirit or, more correctly,
the Antispirit roughly corresponding, in its stellar
idealism, to the Hindu Clear Light of the Void.
7. What particularly distinguishes Jehovah from
the Clear Light of the Void ... is the anthropomorphic distance which exists
between Hindu idealism and Judaic realism in view of the later development of
the latter religion.
8. One might be forgiven for equating the Clear
Light of the Void with the central star of the Galaxy; but no such literal
derivation could apply to any figurative extrapolation from such a primal
source of cosmic energy.
9. Platonic idealism is a Greek version of
cosmic idealism ... to the extent that it allows for an anterior realm of 'pure
ideas', of which the visible embodiments in the material world are but 'pale
copies', like 'Maya' in relation to the Clear Light.
10. If philosophy is rooted in cosmic or
scientific idealism, then philosophy is a profoundly anti-religious discipline
which must necessarily fight shy of transcendentalism.
11. Such a contention would allow for a
distinction, indeed an antithesis, between philosophical idealism and
theosophical transcendentalism - the former objective and the latter
subjective.
12. Logically, one could also draw a distinction
between psychological naturalism and theological fundamentalism - the former
objective and the latter subjective.
13. These alpha/omega distinctions simply confirm
the dichotomy which exists between science and religion on the basis of an
objective/subjective antithesis.
14. Science is about Doing in relation to the
Given; religion, by contrast, about Being in relation
to the Becoming.
15. Television is a realistic Antihell,
video a humanistic Hell; radio is a realistic Antiworld,
audio a humanistic World; record players are a realistic Antipurgatory,
compact discs a humanistic Purgatory; computers are a realistic Antiheaven, CD-ROMs a humanistic Heaven.
16. Possible correlation between double audio-tape
decks and lesbianism on the one hand, and double video-tape decks and
homosexuality on the other hand.
17. Schizophrenic oscillation of Christians
between the Jehovahesque idealism of the Old
Testament and the Fatheresque fundamentalism of the
New Testament, the latter alone having any
relationship to Christ.
18. Neither Jehovah nor the Father is literally
God; for Jehovah corresponds to cosmic idealism and the Father to blood-based
fundamentalism - the former a sort of Antigod along
the lines of the Clear Light of the Void, the latter a positive, or omega,
Devil corresponding to the Holy Soul of Hell.
Only the Holy Spirit of Heaven is truly divine.
19. Even Allah is not truly divine in the sense of
being the Holy Spirit of Heaven.
Although originally deriving from Jehovah, Allah developed, within
Islam, a fundamentalist status analogous to the Father. In fact, one could paradoxically argue that
Allah is the Father minus the Trinity, which is to say, an unequivocal
manifestation of fundamentalist strength.
For strength is the quality of 'the Almighty', a quality antithetical to
the weakness of Satan.
20. The quality of Jehovah or indeed of any
creator-deity (necessarily cosmic) is illusion, the negative antithesis of
truth, and thus something having reference to the Clear Light of the Void, as
opposed to the Holy Spirit of Heaven.
21. Illusion is the alpha antithesis of truth no
less than weakness the alpha antithesis of strength. Allah is 'great' not because He is illusory,
but precisely by dint of His correlation with strength.
22. Strength is rooted neither in the illusion of
light nor in the truth of air, but in the blood, against which the weakness of
fire is a naturalistic threat.
