101a. All strength can do is to keep those who are strong from the
joys of truth.
b. All goodness can do is to keep those who are
good from the pleasures of beauty.
102a. Conversely,
all weakness can do is to keep those who are weak from the woes of illusion.
b. All evil can do is to keep those who are evil
from the pains of ugliness.
103a. Illusion
is for the anti-transcendentalist classless of the Judaic Antigod.
b. Weakness is for the anti-fundamentalist upper
class of the despotic Antidevil.
104a. Ugliness
is for the anti-humanist lower class of the republican Antivirgin.
b. Evil is for the
anti-nonconformist middle class of the parliamentary Antichrist.
105a. If
positive transcendentalism is truthful, then negative transcendentalism is
illusory - the difference between God and Antigod.
b. If positive fundamentalism is strong, then
negative fundamentalism is weak - the difference between the Devil and the Antidevil.
106a. If
positive humanism is beautiful, then negative humanism is ugly - the difference
between woman and antiwoman.
b. If positive nonconformism
is good, then negative nonconformism is evil - the
difference between man and antiman.
107a. God
(the Holy Spirit) is Taoist, but the Antigod
(Jehovah) is Judaic.
b. The Devil (The Father) is Islamic, but the Antidevil (Satan) is despotic.
108a. Woman
(the Blessed Virgin) is Catholic, but the Antiwoman
(the Cursed Whore) is republican.
b. Man (the Son) is Protestant, but the Antison (Antichrist) is parliamentary.
109a. Because
the divine can be either negative or positive, Antigod
or God, peace can likewise be negative or positive, of photon particles or wavicles in space.
b. Because the diabolic can be either negative
or positive, Antidevil or Devil, war can likewise be
negative or positive, of proton particles or wavicles
in time.
110a. Because
the feminine can be either negative or positive, antiwoman
or woman, sex can likewise be negative or positive, of electron particles or wavicles in mass.
b. Because the masculine can be either negative
or positive, antiman or man, sport can likewise be
either negative or positive, of neutron particles or wavicles
in volume.
111a. If
God is inner peace and the Devil ... inner war, then the Antigod
is outer peace and the Antidevil ... outer war.
b. If man is inner sport and woman ... inner
sex, then the antiman is outer sport and the antiwoman ... outer sex.
112a. Inner
peace is being in the space within; outer peace is antibeing
in the antispace without.
b. Inner war is feeling in the time within;
outer war is antifeeling in the time without.
113a. Inner
sex is doing in the mass within; outer sex is antidoing
in the mass without.
b. Inner sport is knowing
in the volume within; outer sport is antiknowing in
the volume without.
114a. Sex
is the peace of the world, both inner and outer.
b. Sport is the war of purgatory, both inner and
outer.
115a. The humanism of sex vis-à-vis the transcendentalism of
peace.
b. The puritanism of
sport vis-à-vis the fundamentalism of war.
116a. Sex
is the darkness of phenomenal subjectivity; peace the light of noumenal subjectivity.
b. Sport is the coldness of phenomenal
objectivity; war the heat of noumenal objectivity.
117a. Better
the unholy peace of Antigod than the holy war of the
Devil.
b. For the holy war
is still war, and thus fundamentally diabolic.
118a. God
is no more capable of war than the Devil of peace.
b. For God is light
and the Devil ... fire.
119a. God
is no-less noumenally extreme than the Devil, but
God's is an extremity of the left rather than the right.
b. Woman is no-less phenomenally moderate than
man, but woman's is a moderation of the left rather than the right.
120a. The extreme left of noumenal
subjectivity vis-à-vis the extreme right of noumenal
objectivity.
b. The moderate left of phenomenal subjectivity
vis-à-vis the moderate right of phenomenal objectivity.
121a. Peace,
like God, is extreme left, whereas war, like the Devil, is extreme right.
b. Sex, like woman, is moderate left, whereas
sport, like man, is moderate right.
122a. Extreme left-wing transcendentalism vis-à-vis
extreme right-wing fundamentalism.
b. Moderate left-wing humanism vis-à-vis
moderate right-wing nonconformism.
123a. Heaven
is extreme left, whereas Hell is extreme right.
b. The world is moderate left, whereas purgatory
is moderate right.
124a. The salvation of the Moderate Left, or worldly, through the
Extreme Left, or heavenly.
b. The damnation of the Moderate Right, or
purgatorial, through the Extreme Right, or hellish.
125a. The salvation of the world, or humanism, through God, or
transcendentalism.
b. The damnation of purgatory, or nonconformism, through the Devil, or fundamentalism.
126a. From phenomenal subjectivity to noumenal
subjectivity - a progression from the Moderate Left to the Extreme Left, the
bound star to the bound cross.
b. From phenomenal objectivity to noumenal objectivity - a progression from the Moderate
Right to the Extreme Right, the free cross to the free star.
127a. From the bound star of the world to the bound cross (supercross) of the heavenly Beyond.
b. From the free
cross of purgatory to the free star (superstar) of the hellish Beyond.
128a. From feminine inner darkness to divine inner light.
b. From masculine
inner coldness to diabolic inner heat.
129a. From Catholic humanism to Taoist
transcendentalism.
b. From Protestant puritanism to Islamic fundamentalism.
130a. Conversely,
from the bound antistar of the antiworld
to the bound anticross (super-anticross)
of the heavenly Behind.
b. From the free anticross of antipurgatory to the
free antistar (super-antistar)
of the hellish Behind.
131a. From feminine outer darkness to divine outer light.
b. From masculine
outer coldness to diabolic outer heat.
132a. From republican anti-humanism to communist (Marxist)
anti-transcendentalism.
b. From parliamentary
anti-nonconformism to fascist anti-fundamentalism.
133a. Both Catholics and Protestants believe in a
Beyond, but not in the same Beyond.
b. The Catholic Beyond ... of Taoist
transcendentalism ... is actually a positive salvation; the Protestant Beyond
... of Islamic fundamentalism ... is effectively a positive damnation.
134a. From beauty to truth in the case of Catholics.
b. From goodness to
strength in the case of Protestants.
135a. Both Republicans and Parliamentarians
effectively believe in a Behind, but not in the same Behind.
b. The republican Behind
... of communist anti-transcendentalism ... is actually a negative salvation,
the parliamentary Behind ... of fascist anti-fundamentalism ... is effectively
a negative damnation.
136a. From ugliness to illusion in the case of republicans.
b. From evil to
weakness in the case of parliamentarians.
137a. Both positive salvation and positive damnation in the
transcendentalist and fundamentalist Beyonds are wavicle equivalents.
b. Both negative salvation and negative
damnation in the anti-transcendentalist and anti-fundamentalist Behinds are
particle equivalents.
138a. There is thus a progression from electron wavicles to photon wavicles in
the case of positive salvation, and from neutron wavicles
to proton wavicles in the case of positive damnation.
b. There is thus a regression from electron
particles to photon particles in the case of negative salvation, and from neutron
particles to proton particles in the case of negative damnation.
139a. We live in an age when the progressive options on salvation
and damnation are more likely than the regressive ones.
b. Formerly, it was the regressive options
which, with the threat of Communism/Fascism, seemed the more likely of the two.
140a. Such progressive options on salvation and damnation take the
form of political religion rather than political science.
b. For political religion is to religion what
political science is to science - a transitional means to a more complete
Beyond or Behind, depending on the case.
141a. Fire
and air both contain light, but the light of fire is outer,
whereas the light of air is inner.
b. Firelight is the appearance of flame, whereas
lightness is the essence of oxygen.
142a. Earth
and water both contain substance, but the substance of earth is outer, whereas the substance of water is inner.
b. Darkness is the appearance of earth, whereas
coldness is the essence of water.
143a. Substance
is to a phenomenon what light is to a noumenon - its
appearance/essence.
b. Whereas the appearance/essence of a
phenomenon is tangible, the appearance/essence of a noumenon
is intangible.
144a. I
can touch the substance of both earth and water, but I cannot touch the
'substance' of either fire or air.
b. For light can only
be seen and lightness felt, not touched.
145a. If
I endeavour to touch fire I will be burnt by its essence, which is heat.
b. If I endeavour to touch air I will be cooled
by its essence, which is lightness.
146a. Being
noumenal, both heat, the essence of fire, and
lightness, the essence of air, are beyond the scope of
tangible verification.
b. But I can feel
both the essence of fire and the essence of air, whilst I can see the
appearance of fire (flame) and the 'appearance' of air (light).
147a. Were
there no air I would not be able to see light, nor to feel lightness.
b. Were there no fire
I would not be able to feel flame, nor to see firelight.
148a. Firelight
differs from light as the appearance of flame from the 'appearance' of air.
b. Heat differs from lightness as the essence of
flame from the essence of air.
149a. The appearance of flame is dark compared with the
'appearance' of air.
b. The essence of flame is heavy compared with
the essence of air.
150a. Dark
and heavy, like earth and water, fire is no match for the light/lightness of
air.
b. For air is the one
element capable, in its durable transcendence, of taking one to God.
151a. Borne
on the lightness of air to the light of being, wherein the photon is at
one-with-itself.
b. Carried on a joyful wave to the wisdom of
truth, wherein the spirit is at peace-with-itself.
152a. A peace that surpasses all understanding because it is not
one-with-the-intellect but one-with-the-spirit.
b. The peace of a supreme being in the joyful
beatitude of its spiritual transcendence.
153a. A peace of space once removed from the sex of mass, twice
removed from the sport of volume, and thrice removed from the war of time.
b. A being that has left not only will but
intellect and soul behind in its spiritual wake, thereby becoming supreme.
154a. Although
closest in appearance to the Divine, the upper class are thrice removed from it
in essence.
b. Although closer (compared to the lower class)
in appearance to the Divine, the middle class are twice removed from it in
essence.
155a. Although
the least close in appearance to the Divine, the lower class are only once
removed from it in essence.
b. For the Divine is
the noumenal subjectivity of a photon-wavicle transcendence, which is classless.
156a. The upper class, being fundamentalist, are the class par excellence of the Devil,
viz. war and time.
b. The middle class, being nonconformist, are
the class par excellence of
man, viz. sport and volume.
157a. The lower class, being humanist, are the class par excellence of woman, viz. sex and mass.
b. The classless, being transcendentalist, are
the People par excellence of
God, viz. peace and space.
158a. A divine world would be one in which only classlessness,
relative to God, prevailed.
b. Such a divine world would be above the
conflicting class interests of the Devil, man, and woman.
159a. Neither
the Father, the Son, nor the Mother ... would have any place in a divine world.
b. Only the Holy Spirit would prevail there, and
prevail for all eternity ... of timeless, volumeless,
massless space.
160a. A divine world would be centred on the truth of peace and
space.
b. Neither the strength of
war and time, the goodness of sport and volume, nor the beauty of sex and mass
would exist there.
161a. The feeling of soul, the knowing of intellect, and the doing
of will could have no place in Heaven.
b. For Heaven is the
divine world, which is the being of spirit.
162a. Such
a being is transcendentalist, and contrasts absolutely with the feeling of
soul, which is fundamentalist.
b. For the feeling of
soul is the diabolic world, which is Hell.
163a. Another way of describing Heaven is to speak of an ideal
world, but such a description would be from a scientific rather than a
religious point-of-view.
b. Likewise one could describe Hell as a
naturalistic world, but such a description would be scientific rather than
religious.
164a. Doubtless,
those who relate to God prefer the use of religious to scientific terminology.
b. Just as those who relate to the Devil prefer
the use of scientific to religious terminology.
165a. To describe scientific fundamentalism in terms of religious
transcendentalism is the mark of a divine being, or god.
b. To describe
religious transcendentalism in terms of scientific fundamentalism is the mark
of a diabolic being or, rather, feeling - a devil.
166a. As
illogical for a truly religious person to describe scientific fundamentalism in
terms of scientific terminology ... as for a genuinely scientific person to
describe religious transcendentalism in terms of religious terminology.
b. A man of God would no more speak in terms of
naturalism, materialism, realism, or idealism ... than a man of the Devil would
speak in terms of Hell, purgatory, the world, or Heaven.
167a. To speak of an ideal world is therefore to describe Heaven
from a scientific, and hence fundamentalist or, more correctly,
antifundamentalist point-of-view.
b. To speak of a
divine world is therefore to describe Heaven from a religious, and hence
transcendentalist, point-of-view.
168a. To cross over from scientific to religious terminology, or
vice versa, is the mark of the in-between phenomenality
of both nonconformism and humanism.
b. Yet nonconformism,
being political, will have a bias towards scientific terminology, whereas
humanism, being economic, will have a bias towards religious terminology.
169a. It
nonetheless follows that nonconformism will prefer,
when true to itself, to approach the noumenal
extremes of science and religion from its own political point-of-view.
b. Nonconformism will
therefore speak of authoritarianism in lieu of naturalism/hell on the one hand and of
totalitarianism in lieu of idealism/heaven on the other hand.
170a. Likewise,
it should be emphasized that humanism, when true to itself, will prefer to
approach the noumenal extremes of science and
religion from its own economic point-of-view.
b. Thus it will speak of Fascism in lieu of naturalism/hell on the one hand
and of Communism in lieu of idealism/heaven on the other
hand.
171a. Such specifically nonconformist and humanist terminology
will reflect a necessarily partial and limited point-of-view ... relative to
each of the phenomenal ideological positions in question.
b. Whereas use of either scientific or religious
terminology by nonconformists and humanists will do greater justice to the noumenal ideological positions to which, alternatively or
otherwise, they may pertain.
172a. As
unlikely for a genuine scientist, or man of the Devil, to regard either himself
or, more correctly, his self as diabolic ... as for a genuine priest, or man of
God, to regard his self as ideal.
b. The genuine scientist can no more face-up to
his self from a religious point-of-view ... than the genuine priest can
face-down to his self from a scientific point-of-view.
173a. Scientists
who can and do face-up to their emotional self from a religious point-of-view
are more likely to be either nonconformist or humanist (though especially the
latter) quasi-scientists than the genuine noumenally
extreme article.
b. Priests who can and do face-down to their
spiritual self from a scientific point-of-view are more likely to be humanist
or nonconformist (though especially the latter) quasi-priests than the genuine noumenally extreme article.
174a. In
the case of quasi-scientists, a parliamentary or a republican bias ... as
relative to nonconformist and humanist systems respectively.
b. In the case of quasi-priests, a Catholic or a
Protestant bias ... as relative to humanist and nonconformist systems
respectively.
175a. The genuine scientist is more germane to fundamentalist
systems than to other types of system.
b. The genuine priest is more germane to
transcendentalist systems than to other types of system.
176a. Conversely,
the least genuine and/or most spurious scientist is likely to be found in
transcendentalist systems.
b. While the least genuine and/or most spurious
priest is likely to be found in fundamentalist systems.
177a. Because
fundamentalism can be either alpha or omega, despotic or clerical, it follows
that the most spurious priest will be found in the former type of
fundamentalist system.
b. Because transcendentalism can be either alpha
or omega, lawful or spiritual, it follows that the most spurious scientist will
be found in the latter type of transcendentalist system.
178a. Hence
the most spurious priest is likely to be found - if at all - within a despotic
fundamentalist system.
b. While the most spurious scientist is likely
to be found - if at all - within a spiritual transcendentalist system.
179a. Priests
within a clerical fundamentalist system are simply least genuine.
b. Scientists within a lawful transcendentalist
system are likewise least genuine.
180a. The most genuine priests will always be found within a
spiritual transcendentalist system, like Taoism.
b. The most genuine
scientists will always be found within a despotic fundamentalist system, like
Fascism.
181a. Taoists
are one-with-God and therefore blessed.
b. Fascists are one- or, rather,
many-with-the-Devil, and therefore cursed.
182a. The genuine priest is a god incarnate.
b. The genuine scientist is a devil incarnate.
183a. The spirit of religion sees the world in terms of the
Father, the Mother, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.
b. The soul of science feels the world in terms
of naturalism, realism, materialism, and idealism.
184a. The intellect of politics knows the world in terms of
authoritarianism, republicanism, liberalism, and totalitarianism.
b. The will of economics runs the world in terms
of fascism, socialism, capitalism, and communism.
185a. Light,
the element of space, is the illusion/truth of religious transcendentalism.
b. Fire, the element of time, is the
weakness/strength of scientific fundamentalism.
186a. Water,
the element of volume, is the evil/goodness of political nonconformism.
b. Earth, the element of mass, is the
ugliness/beauty of economic humanism.
187a. Faith
stands to despair as joy to woe.
b. Confidence stands to anger as pride to
humility.
188a. Desire
stands to revulsion as love to hate.
b. Hope stands to fear as pleasure to pain.
189a. Faith
through truth increases joy; joy through faith enhances metaphysical self.
b. Confidence through strength increases pride;
pride through confidence enhances metaphysical not-self.
190a. Desire
through goodness increases love; love through desire enhances physical
not-self.
b. Hope through beauty increases pleasure;
pleasure through hope enhances physical self.
191a. Despair
through illusion increases woe; woe through despair diminishes metaphysical
self.
b. Anger through weakness increases humiliation;
humiliation through anger diminishes metaphysical not-self.
192a. Revulsion
through evil increases hate; hate through revulsion diminishes physical
not-self.
b. Fear through ugliness increases pain; pain
through fear diminishes physical self.
193a. Faith
is a quality of the photon-wavicle metaphysical self;
despair a quality of the photon-particle metaphysical self.
b. Confidence is a quality of the proton-wavicle metaphysical not-self; anger a quality of the
proton-particle metaphysical not-self.
194a. Desire
is a quality of the neutron-wavicle physical
not-self; Revulsion a quality of the neutron-particle physical not-self.
b. Hope is a quality of the electron-wavicle physical self; fear a quality of the
electron-particle physical self.
195a. The metaphysical self is noumenal
subjectivity, but the physical self is phenomenal subjectivity.
b. The metaphysical not-self is noumenal objectivity, but the physical not-self is
phenomenal objectivity.
196a. Faith
is the wavicle blessing of joyful truth; despair the
particle curse of woeful illusion.
b. Confidence is the wavicle
blessing of proud strength; anger the particle curse of humiliating weakness.
197a. Desire
is the wavicle blessing of loving goodness; revulsion
the particle curse of hateful evil.
b. Hope is the wavicle
blessing of pleasurable beauty; fear the particle curse of painful ugliness.
198a. The faith of God vis-à-vis the confidence of the Devil.
b. The desire of man vis-à-vis the hope of
woman.
199a. Conversely,
the despair of Antigod vis-à-vis the anger of the Antidevil.
b. The revulsion of antiman
vis-à-vis the fear of antiwoman.
200a. The metaphysical self, being noumenally
subjective, is divine, whereas the metaphysical not-self, being noumenally objective, is diabolic.
b. The physical self, being phenomenally
subjective, is feminine, whereas the physical not-self, being phenomenally
objective, is masculine.
