WHY EVIL CONDITIONS CRIME AND GRACE CONDITIONS WISDOM
In general terms, the free conditions the
bound, so that one can say that binding is determined by freedom, irrespective
of gender, and therefore of whether, in female vein, soma conditions psyche or
whether, in male vein, psyche conditions soma.
The conditioning of psyche by soma in both metachemistry
and chemistry, the hegemonically female elements par
excellence, means that crime is
conditioned by evil and is, in effect, if not a consequence then certainly a
corollary of evil, the only difference between these two elements being that,
in metachemistry, evil and crime, corresponding to
beauty and love in free soma and to ugliness and hatred in bound psyche, are
genuine, whereas in chemistry, more the element of spirit than of will, evil
and crime, corresponding to strength and pride in free soma and to weakness and
humility in bound psyche, are pseudo, since here the emphasis on overall axial
terms tends to be on psyche as opposed to soma, even with a relative
predominance of soma over psyche in chemistry, due in large part to the antiphysical subversion of chemistry at the behest of a
degree of metaphysics over antimetachemistry on what
we have elsewhere described as - and know to be - the
church-hegemonic/state-subordinate axis of that which stretches, on intercardinal axial terms, from the southwest to the
northeast points of the axis in question.
The conditioning of soma by psyche in both metaphysics and physics, the hegemonically male elements par excellence, means that wisdom is conditioned by grace
and is, in effect, if not a consequence then certainly a corollary of grace,
the only difference between these two elements being that, in metaphysics,
grace and wisdom, corresponding to truth and joy in free psyche and to illusion
and woe in bound soma, are genuine, whereas in physics, more the element of ego
than of soul, grace and wisdom, corresponding to knowledge and pleasure in free
psyche and to ignorance and pain in bound soma, are pseudo, since here the
emphasis on overall axial terms tends to be on soma as opposed to psyche, even
with a relative preponderance of psyche over soma in physics, due in large part
to the antichemical subversion of physics at the
behest of a degree of metachemistry over antimetaphysics on what we have elsewhere described as -
and know to be - the state-hegemonic/church-subordinate axis of that which
stretches, on intercardinal axial terms, from the
northwest to the southeast points of the axis in question.
However, the upended subordinate gender
corollaries of these mutually exclusive hegemonic elements follow the pattern,
under pressure from the hegemonic gender, of their gender opposites, not of
themselves, whether as soma apparently conditioning psyche in antimetaphysics and antiphysics
respectively or, across the hegemonic gender divide, as psyche seemingly
conditioning soma in antimetachemistry and antichemistry respectively, so that, irrespective of their
respective gender ratios of psyche to soma or of soma to psyche, the
subordinate gender mimics, as far as possible, the criteria applying to their
gender betters, pseudo-sin no less a corollary of pseudo-folly in antimetaphysics and sin no less a corollary of folly in antiphysics ... than pseudo-goodness is a corollary of
pseudo-punishment in antimetachemistry and goodness a
corollary of punishment in antichemistry. For,
speaking generally, there can no more be sin without folly than ... goodness
without punishment, just as, from the standpoint of the hegemonic gender in any
given elemental position, there can no more be crime without evil in free soma
than, across the gender divide, wisdom could possibly exist without a gracious
precondition in free psyche.
Notwithstanding the distinctions between moral evil and crime or, again
generally, moral grace and wisdom and their immoral counterparts (already
touched upon in a series of previous weblogs), the
chief distinction between the hegemonic gender's conditioning of the bound by
the free and their gender subordinate's conditioning of it under pressures from
those a plane above them in either of the respective noumenal
or phenomenal elemental positions will be that, in the former case, the ratio
of free to bound will always favour the free, whether noumenally
on a 3:1 basis or phenomenally on a 2½:1½ basis, whereas in the latter case the
ratio of free to bound will always be contrary to the free, whether noumenally on a 1:3 basis or phenomenally on a 1½:2½ basis,
with predictably unattractive consequences.
But this is effectively a separate subject (not least in respect of the
immorality already touched upon), so I shall leave it there for the time being,
only remarking, in conclusion, that the subversion of chemistry by antiphysics at the behest of metaphysics over antimetachemistry in the one axial case and the subversion
of physics by antichemistry at the behest of metachemistry over antimetaphysics
in the other axial case provides a compromise solution whereby a male-oriented
bound psyche, corresponding to sin, and a female-oriented bound soma,
corresponding to goodness, will correspond to the greater part of each
subordinate gender's respective ratio of psyche to soma or of soma to psyche,
i.e. the 2½ (as opposed to the 1½), at the expense, axially speaking, of the
hegemonic gender and without the benefit, traditionally, of either genuine
salvation to free psyche in metaphysics or, in the case of the antichemical, genuine undamnation,
speaking paradoxically and contrary to the will of godliness, to free soma in metachemistry, the reason being that neither axis can exist
independently of the other whilst an elemental fudge at either pole continues
to be the general rule and to keep them in some kind of axial relativity whose
respective modes of consistency and stability are held up as guarantors of
continuity, and therefore as justifying their respective poles.
I do not doubt the credibility of such a claim,
but I have a different mindset and approach to axial relativity which the
reader may already have familiarized himself with in other writings by me and
accordingly have come to the conclusion that I am no apologist for the axial
status quo!
