CYCLE SIXTEEN

 

1.   The Time of the heart vis-à-vis the Space of the lungs, with regard to the absolutism of noumenal distinctions.  But the Volume of the brain vis-à-vis the Mass of the body (womb), with regard to the relativity of phenomenal distinctions.

 

2.   I would never claim to be on the side of 'evil religion' against, say, 'good science', the Father vis-à-vis the Jehovahesque Clear Light of the Void, but I could not side with the latter.

 

3.   Even Nazism was a sort of 'evil religion' which, rooted in Fatherland fundamentalism, saw itself fighting a kind of Holy War against the scientific 'evils' of Marxism, Bolshevism, Judaism, etc.

 

4.   I have long believed that Hitler was the Germanic manifestation of the Second Coming, and that the Holocaust was effectively a Nazi version of the Last Judgement.

 

5.   Nazism was no friend of economics or politics, capitalism or republicanism, but an 'evil religion' which, following the defeat of the economic and political middle-grounds, swung into action against its real enemy - the 'evil science' of Bolshevism.

 

6.   As a basically evil, or fundamentalist, manifestation of religion, Islam has also launched so-called Holy Wars against its scientific antithesis, principally Soviet Communism.

 

7.   Unlike Fundamentalism, which is rooted in the Father or some such embodiment of pride and strength, Transcendentalism could never launch a 'Holy War'.  Nothing defies the concept of war more than a religion centred in the Holy Spirit of Heaven, a religion which, being true, is beyond war ... in the 'peace that surpasses all understanding'.

 

8.   Social Transcendentalism will never seek to advance the Holy Spirit of Heaven through war.  Rather will it seek to deliver religious peoples from the Father, and thus from the possibility of raging 'Holy Wars'.

 

9.   The only instance in which it might be relatively permissible for Social Transcendentalist peoples to offer armed resistance ... would be in the defence of Social Transcendentalism from outside interference, but even then only as a last resort!  Yet such a defence would not amount to a 'Holy War', since the Father wouldn't be at stake, but, rather, to a sort of 'Unholy Peace'.

 

10.  Thus if the worst came to the worst, it would be better to wage an 'Unholy Peace' ... of propaganda and other (police-centred) struggle against outside interference ... than simply capitulate and allow evil to triumph over good.

 

11.  Such an 'Unholy Peace', however, would be very much the exception to the rule; for the rule of 'Holy Peace' is alone commensurate with the aims and intentions of Social Transcendentalism - the ideology of what is effectively if not literally, at this point in time, a true world religion ... of the Holy Spirit of Heaven.
