SOME
OPENING
SALVOS
One
evening
I
decided
I
had
had enough of being
a TV-sucking sonofabitch, and that was that.
Or was it? I had a second thought
and figured that one was more of a sonofabitch with radio and something
akin to
a quasi-bitch with television - which is worse!
One
thing
I
am
not
and
never shall be is a
God-fearing sonofabitch!
I
could
never
accept
a
female
boss – it would
make me a sonofabitch. That is the
problem with sexual or gender equalitarianism, quite apart from the
fact that
if you give a woman an inch she is almost bound, sooner or later, to
take the
proverbial mile – one way or another.
All
these
God-mongering
sons-of-bitches
make
me
sick. They just don’t realize how
religiously fake they are!
Jews
are
traditionally
amongst
the
most
culpable
of God-mongers – virtual inventors of Devil the Mother hyped
as God
the Father, that is, as the Creator, Jehovah, call it by what name you
like.
How
can
a
close-lipped
smile,
motivated
by joy,
be identified with doing or saying anything?
Much less singing anything!
Young
people
are
like
roses,
old
people like
tulips.
The
internet
is chock-full of piffling little money-grubbing sites.
Truly awful! A
page of … what?
Nothing! Only sordid money-grubbers.
I’ve
never
known
a
computer
that
hasn’t held me
back and more or less screwed me around,
including the
one I’m currently using (a Compaq).
AN
ALTERNATIVE
TAKE
ON
LIFE
AND
DEATH
Although
the
concepts
of
‘life’
and
‘death’ are
commonly understood in relation to living and dying, the actual alpha
and omega
of life are ‘birth’ and ‘death’, the former of which precedes life as
commonly
understood in relation to conscious duration, and the latter of which
succeeds
it.
There
is,
however,
another
way
of
looking at
life and death, and that is to equate them with free and bound, or
positive and
negative, or bright and dark, or, indeed, virtue and vice, so that they
constitute two sides of the same elemental or even pseudo-elemental
coin, be it
metachemical/pseudo-metaphysical at the
northwest
point of the intercardinal axial compass,
chemical/pseudo-physical at the southwest, physical/pseudo-chemical at
the
southeast, or metaphysical/pseudo-metachemical
at the
northeast, the point polar to what exists at the southwest and
antithetical to
the northwest.
Consequently,
I
also
like
to
think
of life and
death in this dichotomous sense as the free and bound sides of the same
elemental/pseudo-elemental coin, whether that coin happens to be
absolute or
relative, noumenal or phenomenal, ethereal
or
corporeal.
There
is
an
infinite
life
and
death in metachemistry
and a pseudo-eternal pseudo-life and
pseudo-death in pseudo-metaphysics at the northwest point of the intercardinal axial compass, the former
representative of a
3:1 ratio (absolute) of free soma (beauty and love) to bound psyche
(ugliness
and hate); the latter significant of a 1:3 ratio (absolute) of free
soma or,
rather, pseudo-free soma (pseudo-joy and pseudo-truth) to pseudo-bound
psyche
(pseudo-woe and pseudo-illusion).
Conversely,
there
is
an
eternal
life
and death
in metaphysics and a pseudo-infinite pseudo-life and pseudo-death in
pseudo-metachemistry at the northeast point
of the intercardinal axial compass, the
former significant of a
3:1 ratio (absolute) of free psyche (joy and truth) to bound soma (woe
and
illusion); the latter representative of a 1:3 ratio (absolute) of
pseudo-free
psyche (pseudo-beauty and pseudo-love) to pseudo-bound soma
(pseudo-ugliness
and pseudo-hate).
Likewise,
there
is
a
finite
life
and death in
chemistry and a pseudo-temporal pseudo-life and pseudo-death in
pseudo-physics
at the southwest point of the intercardinal
axial
compass, the former representative of a 2½:1½ ratio (relative) of free
soma
(pride and strength) to bound psyche (humility and weakness); the
latter
significant of a 1½:2½ ratio (relative) of pseudo-free soma
(pseudo-knowledge
and pseudo-pleasure) to pseudo-bound psyche (pseudo-ignorance and
pseudo-pain).
Finally,
if
conversely,
there
is
a
temporal
life and death in physics and a pseudo-finite pseudo-life and
pseudo-death in
pseudo-chemistry at the southeast point of the intercardinal
axial compass, the former significant of a 2½:1½ ratio (relative) of
free
psyche (knowledge and pleasure) to bound soma (ignorance and pain); the
latter
representative of a 1½:2½ ratio (relative) of pseudo-free psyche
(pseudo-pride
and pseudo-strength) to pseudo-bound soma (pseudo-humility and
pseudo-weakness).
The
metaphysical/pseudo-metachemical
point of the intercardinal axial compass
that I
favour is therefore constitutive, in general terms, of a contrast
between the
Eternal Life in relation to the preponderating aspect of the element of metaphysics (psyche) and, a plane
down, the
pseudo-Infinite pseudo-death of the predominating
aspect of the pseudo-element of pseudo-metachemistry
(soma) – call this a contrast between Heaven and pseudo-Hell or,
better, the
pseudo-Devil, since whereas the fulcrum of metaphysics is Soul (and
hence
Heaven), the fulcrum of pseudo-metachemistry,
by
contrast,
is
pseudo-bound
Will
(and
hence the pseudo-Devil), given the
gender
differentials which, here as elsewhere, preclude a straightforward –
and
oversimplified – parallelism of terminological usage.
THE
LOGICAL
VIEW
OF
SAINTS
Despite
what
I
may
have
written
in that
revised/reformatted weblog ‘Saints of the British Isles’ (see The
Centre
of
Truth), I don’t actually accept the
fourfold placement of a saint at each hegemonic point of the intercardinal axial compass since, quite apart
from logical
objections, common sense alone should suggest that there are only two
hegemonic
points at which saints can reasonably exist – namely the southeast and
the
northeast in relation to physics and metaphysics, with the former
pseudo-righteous (and hence pseudo-saintly) but the latter alone
genuinely
righteous (and hence genuinely saintly), bearing in mind the phenomenal/noumenal, corporeal/ethereal distinction between
these two
male elements on what are, in practical terms, two opposing axes, with
contrasting emphases between state and church and, indeed, soma and
psyche.
So,
of
course,
saints,
whether
pseudo
(physical)
or genuine (metaphysical) can only exist at the southeast
and
northeast hegemonic points of our intercardinal
axial
compass, and not right across the axial board, so to speak, in any of
the
hegemonic elements. Two of them, viz. metachemistry and chemistry, are characterized
by whores
(genuine and pseudo respectively), and whores exist in conjunction, hegemonically, with demons (whether pseudo in
pseudo-metaphysics or genuine in pseudo-physics), who are axially polar
to the
saints, both types of which exist in hegemonic conjunction with angels
(whether
pseudo in pseudo-metachemistry or genuine
in
pseudo-chemistry), so that, in general terms, saints and angels are
no-less
correlative than whores and demons, the only difference being that
saints are
genuine in metaphysics and angels in pseudo-chemistry, whereas whores
are
genuine in metachemistry and demons in
pseudo-physics, as noted above.
As
to
the
distinction
between
St
George and St
Patrick, the former would seem to be metaphysical and the latter merely
physical, since the one has his foot, metaphorically speaking, on a
neutralized
dragon (a pseudo-metachemical
pseudo-dragon) and the
other on a neutralized snake (a pseudo-chemical pseudo-snake), as
though to
keep them down or in their inferior place – assuming snakes were not
altogether
banished (from Ireland) in a general cull.
Whatever
the
case,
snakes,
lacking
wings,
don’t
fly, whereas dragons do (or were alleged to), given their reliance on
wings. Therefore since dragons are a
higher (flying) species of life than snakes, it seems only logical to
regard St
George as a higher (or genuine) species of saint than St Patrick, whose
association
with snakes is, to say the least, less exalted.
But
if
St
George,
being
metaphysical,
is the
genuine saint, and St Patrick, his physical counterpart, the
pseudo-saint, then
it should be possible to logically infer that the neutralized dragon
(pseudo-dragon)
corresponds to the pseudo-angel and the neutralized snake
(pseudo-snake) to the
genuine angel – much as one may naturally balk at such a correlation in
view of
their apparent incompatibility.
But
that
is
merely
a
consequence
of a
conventionally-conditioned false concept of angels which, like the
false
concept of saints, has traditionally characterized Western and, indeed,
much
Eastern thinking and religion, to the detriment of logic.
Such falsehood was rooted in mystical fancy
often deriving from myth and tended to either overlook or confound
gender –
something I would regard as the equivalent of a cardinal sin.
Saints,
in
short,
are
righteously
hegemonic
males,
angels their justly subordinate pseudo-female
counterparts.
By
contrast,
whores
are
vainly
hegemonic
females,
demons their meekly subordinate pseudo-male counterparts.
All
this
derives
from
logic,
not
mysticism.
THE
AUTOCRACY
OF
WAR
VIS-À-VIS
THE
THEOCRACY OF
PEACE
With
alpha-stemming
life,
war
is
the
rule and
peace the exception – the exception of an escape, through some degree
of
theocracy, from gender friction in monastery-like vein.
Men
and
women
are
permanently
at
war because
they are opposites, and nothing men do to reject or hide this fact from
themselves through so-called folk wisdom and
other
subterfuges playing up to the delusion of male supremacy will make any
difference.
The
only
way
to
peace
–
to Paradise Regained,
as it were, with ‘Kingdom Come’ – is for males to transcend gender
friction
through hegemonic dominance over females and, hence, their absolute
subjection
through neutralization, as in the paradigm of St George and the
(neutralized)
dragon – what, in the past (and above), I have called a pseudo-dragon,
equivalent to the ‘lion’ that has been obliged to ‘lie down’ with the
‘lamb’ in
the other well-known Biblical metaphor.
Only that can guarantee males a return to ‘Edenic’
self-respect
in
relation
to
psychic
peace
through being at one with their true,
or deeper, self – the Soul.
SINGING
VIS-À-VIS
HUMMING
The
metaphysical
approach
to
vocals
is,
of
course, humming, at least at the human level of mankind, whereas
synthesized
humming, whereby the voice is ‘put through’ a synthesizer, would surely
equate
with a cyborgistic equivalence, bearing in
mind the
significance of synthesizers to global universality and, hence, to cyborgkind.
Singing,
on
the
other
hand,
stems
from female
dominance, whether in terms of metachemistry
over
pseudo-metaphysics (noumenal) or chemistry
over
pseudo-physics (phenomenal), and inevitably suggests a kind of
objective and/or
pseudo-subjective outpouring of the voice in overly expressive or
pseudo-impressive terms.
Unlike
hummers,
singers
open
their
mouths
in
what appears to be an extrovert, though in the male or, rather,
pseudo-male
case may actually be pseudo-introvert, outpouring of melodic ideas
tempered by
emotion.
Since
singing
is
a
kind
of
water-dominated
vocal activity (as described in earlier texts) especially germane to
the
chemical/pseudo-physical southwest point of the intercardinal
axial compass, it is not – and cannot be – metaphysical (like humming,
or
interiorized non-verbal vocalizing), but these days in particular is
much more
a pop/rock phenomenon which also has the commercial benefit of
providing a
narrative tag with which to ‘bait’ potential or actual customers, as in
the
purchase of CDs.
Singing
can,
however,
approximate
to
a
progressive
rock status as and when the verbal vocals are synthesized,
or put
through a synthetic device for purposes of enhanced artificiality and a
comparatively
more progressive production. Such
synthesized vocals will still fall short, however, of what I have
elsewhere
(see earlier texts) termed regressive electronica
which, ironically, would be less likely to utilize a synthesizer in
this
regard, if only because it represents a descent from a synthetic purism
while
remaining rooted, for all that, in synthesized percussion and/or bass
rhythms.
But
electronica-proper
will, in utilizing the maximum of synthesizers, favour a metaphysical
approach
to vocals, and such an approach should, in godly vein, imply
synthesized
humming – the humming not of mankind but, in post-worldly and even
universal
terms, of cyborgkind, man’s evolutionary
successor.
A
COMMON
MYTH
They
say
your
eyes
get
better
with age, but the
not infrequent dispensing with glasses in my case has more to do with
disillusionment with spectacles than with any perceptive improvement in
vision.
They
say
your
eyes
get
better
as you grow
older, but in my experience they get so bad that you can no longer bear
wearing
spectacles (contacts were never an option), neither psychologically nor
physiologically.
I
escaped
the
optical
straitjacket
of
spectacles
and, boy, did I fee liberated!
These days I could never go back to wearing glasses all day and,
no
matter how bad my eyesight, to looking through the wrong end of a
telescope via
lenses that not only distort one features but look like the proverbial
beer
glass. Fuck that!
Wearing
spectacles
to
see
things
more
clearly
or sharply is just another form of keeping up appearances – one of the
worst,
most psychologically damaging forms.
You’re
straining
your
eyes
watching
hours
of
television, staring fixedly at the screen, when on come the optical
entrepreneurs to cash in on your predicament and put pressure on the
viewer to
come in for an eye test and to buy another pair of spectacles, perhaps
– irony
of ironies – getting an additional pair free! What a perfect medium
television
is for such advertisers! They have you
over the back of the proverbial barrel.
But I have the solution to all that – not so much muting the
volume or
switching channels as … watching TV without spectacles, so that I am
relatively
indifferent to what I see, in any case.
As
for
High
Definition
and
all
the rest of it –
who needs to see blood and gore and violence and greed more clearly and
sharply! That is only further playing
into the Devil’s hands and partaking of a superbitch-ridden
alpha
that
is
as
far
removed
from anything metaphysical and heavenly as you
could possibly be … short of being burnt alive.
A
LOGICAL
SEQUENCE
From
the
most
devolution
in
cosmic
metachemistry
and the most counter-evolution in cosmic
pseudo-metaphysics to the most evolution in cyborg
metaphysics and the most counter-devolution in cyborg
pseudo-metachemistry via more, less, and
least
degrees (stages) of devolution and counter-evolution on the one hand,
and
least, less, and more degrees (stages) of evolution and
counter-devolution on
the other hand, the intermediate stages approximating to nature and
mankind.
FOUR
BASIC
SOCIAL
DIVISIONS
Gender,
racial,
class,
and
occupational
implications
are
facts of life that cannot be wished away, even if they
can be
regarded as not existing by woolly-minded, self-deceiving people. Equality in these matters would not even be
beneficial or desirable, since any attempt to deny or underestimate any
of them
only exposes the hollowness and implausibility of claims to the
contrary.
LIKE
LIVING
IN
HELL
I
don’t
know
if
there
is
anything lower than
the Bangladeshi family I am now living with, but I have never
encountered
anything.
These
people
reach
or,
rather,
plumb
levels of
obscenity in their attitudes and behaviour that beggar belief. At times they seem scarcely human but
decidedly subhumanist (a common Eastern
reality) if
not subhuman.
My
Bangladeshi
neighbours
never
chastise
their
kid
but, rather, allow and even encourage him to make as much noise,
both
verbally and physically, as he likes. He
uses their bed as a trampoline all day and never stops chortling and
giggling while
he is bouncing, noisily, up and down, with their door almost
permanently ajar!
They act as though we, the other neighbours, didn’t exist, largely, I
suspect,
because of their close relationship to the landlord, who is obviously
free to
do as he pleases. Impossible
to
have
cordial
relations
with
such
people.
As
an
Irishman
brought
to
My
neighbours
at
That
Bangladeshi
kid
is
a
monster
– bouncing up
and down on his bed hours on end and hollowing all the while. You’d never suppose they’d already put a
full-size trampoline in the back garden!
Which, of course uses up most of the space, including the little
left,
when you can find room on the clothesline or, rather, tripod, for the
washing.
That
detestable
little
sonofabitch
is
never
still
or quiet, I repeat never still or quiet.
He is a constant nuisance and I have the distinct feeling of
being
tyrannized over by a kid!
The
detestable
tyranny
of
kids
and
…
women! And I am not in the least
responsible for that creature … his father, who is probably back in
Bangladesh,
was responsible for bringing that monster into the world and … I and
the other
non-Bangladeshi neighbours have had to put up with the consequences!
When
I
say
life
makes
me
sick, I am not
exaggerating.
And
they
say
these
creatures
were
made by
God!!? Even if that were true, which I
don’t for one moment believe, it would make conventional religion all
the more
detestable and, frankly, contemptible … that a god was responsible for
such a
monster.
My
life
under
the
Bangladeshi
regime
at
Having
a
Bangladeshi
landlord
is
bad
enough,
what with the sort of ‘exotic’ neighbours he has tended, over the
years, to
inflict upon one, not to mention his gross incompetence in most things,
but
when he eventually moves his extended family in and more or less takes
over the
place, then you know what it means to be marginalized, not least in the
cooking-ridden kitchen! Is this a case
of ‘devil take the hindmost’? If so,
then I don’t see the justice in it.
Aren’t I one of the greatest philosophers and writers (not to
mention
artists, musicians, composers, transcribers) who ever lived? But, of course, I’m an Irishman in
The
stink
of
their
food
coming
upstairs from
the communal kitchen is positively overwhelming in its nauseating
richness and
snot-like acridity – enough, at times, to make one vomit.
And to think that I have to share that
fly-ridden kitchen with them every day! Difficult
enough to
actually find any room in the fridge or on the cooker what with their
food and
pots and pans everywhere. This
really is disgusting! But when their kid
invades it, as he often does, trailing a long scarf and babbling
inanely in
between hysterical outbursts … one feels like a complete idiot for
actually
being there and having to endure it all.
It
would
be
difficult
to
imagine
a less
romantic place than Crouch End/Hornsey, where I’ve lived, unhappily,
for some
thirty-six years without so much as a one-night stand or a single kiss. I was never intended for such a place. But even Crouch End/Hornsey pales into
insignificance when compared with the Bangladeshis….Impossible to lead
a
dignified existence in close proximity to such people.
I fear for the future of Britain with people
like this able to breed and continue in their anarchic and
fundamentally
barbarous lifestyles, I really do, and I am not in the least British
but
unable, all the same, to escape the consequences of living in
twenty-first
century Britain.
These
are
a
people
accustomed
to
arranged
marriages. There is no ‘opt-out clause’;
the breeding is taken for granted. And
look at their numbers! Such people
deserve nothing less than our pitiless disdain for acting the way they
do.
AN
INTERESTING
GENDER
QUESTION
Do
women
have
egos,
much
less
souls? It seems
doubtful, since it appears that
their natural, which is to say hegemonic, condition is the bound psyche
(to the
free soma) of negative ego and soul, the former chemically weak and the
latter metachemically hateful.
A
PET
HATE
Every
time
I
hear
the
word
‘God’ I
metaphorically reach for the proverbial revolver (a Millerism),
as though to plug one of those self-deceiving sons-of-bitches.
NATURE
OF
THE
WORLD
The
world
is
at
bottom
largely
if not completely
irrational. Christ’s injunction to
‘become as little children’ is one of the stupidest, most irrational
things he
ever said, or is alleged to have said, and deserves to be
contemptuously
dismissed. Those bundles of frigging
energy throwing their sonofabitch weight around all day …?
Reason
is
achieved
not
because
of
the world,
but in spite of it – by turning one’s back
on it and
being true to oneself as a subjective (male) creature capable of inner
peace
through self-harmony, which is to say, of psychic togetherness,
something that
can only be achieved independently of women and … kids.
As Christ himself
said: you’ve got to leave them (females) behind, though as I could add:
provided you’re able to.
TWO
KINDS
OF
TRANSCENDENTALISM
I
used
to
think
that
there
was only one kind of
transcendentalism – namely, the metaphysical kind.
But that is really a progressive, or
evolutionary, transcendentalism, as applying to the metaphysical
salvation of
males.
There
is
also
what
could
be
called a
regressive, or devolutionary, kind of transcendentalism, as applying to
females
who achieve the overcoming of their hellish netherworldly
vacuity through the attainment of a surrogate plenum in the guise of
motherhood
– a purgatorially worldly resolution
which, by its
very existence, tends to the diminution if not eradication of
progressive
transcendentalism in males.
Only
messianic
intervention,
it
seems,
could
comprehensively
deliver such pseudo-masculine males from their
pseudo-earthly
kind of worldliness to an otherworldly heaven.
But the inevitable concomitant of that, i.e. salvation, is the
counter-damnation of chemical females, or females who have achieved a
regressive transcendentalism, to the
pseudo-fundamentalism/pseudo-materialism
of pseudo-metachemistry, the subordinate
corollary of
metaphysics. Only thus can paradise be
regained … for males.
For
females,
on
the
other
hand,
there is only
the predominating neutralization of pseudo-infinite life and
pseudo-infinite
death (see ‘An Alternative Take on Life and Death’ above) – akin to the
age-old
metaphor of the neutralized dragon (pseudo-dragon) under the saintly
heel, or
the ‘lion’ (pseudo-lion or, better, lioness) that is perforce obliged
to ‘lie
down’ with the ‘lamb’ (of heavenly godliness) as the pseudo-metachemical
partner of otherworldly triumph.
LOATHE
TO
QUALIFY
‘Jesu, joy of man’s desiring’
–
a
line
from
a
Bach hymn, if I’m not
mistaken. But Christians are loathe to qualify anything, least of all with
respect to
gender. It is certainly not woman who,
other than in mundane terms, would be germane to the ‘man’s desiring’,
or even
man per se, the humanistic physical
egocentric creature across the axial divide from anything
church-hegemonic/state-subordinate; rather it would be the
aforementioned
pseudo-physical pseudo-man, the mass catholic pseudo-male who, if saved
from
his lowly upended predicament under woman (chemical females) at the
southwest
point of the intercardinal axial compass,
would be
eligible for the ‘joy’ of ‘man’s desiring’; though
less in relation to Christ, the so-called
‘Son of God’ who barely transcends bound metaphysical soma (the crucifixional paradigm) than in regard to free
metaphysical
psyche which, in relation to joy, is less of godliness, or godfatherliness,
than of Heaven … the Holy Soul, the actual fulcrum of metaphysics which
is the
precondition of any godly confirmation and effulgent consequence – mere
proof
of the underlying joy.
THE
ADAMIC
PARABLE
We
are
told,
from
the
Bible,
about the ‘curse
of Adam’ (not just the so-called adam’s
apple), but
the male who, post-puberty and in youthful idealism, has been brought
low and
cast out of the garden of his Y-chromosomal self-esteem for having
succumbed to
female temptation is less cursed than unblessed … with salvation from
pseudo-physics
to metaphysics, and thus the prospect of gender-sync blessedness in
free psyche
and bound soma to an absolute (3:1) degree, as befitting the context of
noumenal subjectivity (metaphysics).
The
‘meek’,
contrary
to
Christ,
are
not
‘blessed’; they are, as pseudo-physical pseudo-males, simply unblessed
(with salvational deliverance).
And they exist, as pseudo-masculine males, under those who, as
chemical
females, or feminine females per se,
are simply counter-uncursed (with somatic
freedom and
psychic binding to a relative, i.e.
FALSE
RELIGIONS
The
want
of
qualification
of
terms
and contexts
in Christianity by Christians, or those who consider themselves such,
is proof
of the absence of gender resolve on the part of males to properly
differentiate
between the genders. Just think of how
difficult it must be for a Catholic priest to tell a mixed
congregation, i.e.
the Christian norm, that to become like or follow Christ the males must
abandon
females (wives, daughters, sisters, mothers, lovers, etc.) to take up
the Cross
… and multiply that by a factor of two or more when it is a female who,
in a
Protestant church, is in the pulpit. One
might suppose that such advice would not be to the forefront of her
mind but,
rather, a sense of the (worldly) desirability of familial ties and
fidelity. Bah! The
want
of
a
Christian
resolve
even among
so-called Christians, who regularly attend church, is sickening. Christianity, particularly in its Protestant
manifestations, is just another false religion.
NO
HELP
WITHOUT
HINDRANCE
There
are
some
who
say
the
world helps those
who help themselves and others, by contrast, who argue that it only
helps those
who help others. Both attitudes are
right and simultaneously wrong, since there is more, axially
considered, than
one type of world, and even they are divisible into a
chemical/pseudo-physical
mass Catholic and a physical/pseudo-chemical mass Protestant dichotomy
between
what could be described as those who, objectively, help others and
those who,
pseudo-subjectively, pseudo-hinder themselves on the one hand, and
those who,
by contrast, help themselves and those who, pseudo-objectively,
pseudo-hinder
others.
The
former
pairing,
being
mass
Catholic
at the
southwest point of the intercardinal axial
compass,
and therefore gender divisible in predominating and preponderating
ratio terms
between pseudo-evil chemical free soma and sinful pseudo-physical bound
psyche,
I would define in relation to mothers helping kids and fathers
pseudo-hindering
themselves through non-protective (traditionally) coitus attendant upon
a
sinful (bound psyche) acquiescence in folly (free soma), whereas the
latter
pairing, indubitably mass Protestant (Puritan) at the southeast point
of the
said axial compass, and therefore gender divisible in preponderating
and
predominating ratio terms between pseudo-graceful physical free psyche
and good
pseudo-chemical bound soma, I would incline to define in terms of
fathers
helping themselves through knowledge-based protective coitus and
mothers
pseudo-hindering others, i.e. children, through either a want of kids
or within
a small family unit (one or two kids) attendant upon a good (bound
somatic)
pseudo-chemical acquiescence in punishment (free psyche) that would
contrast
with the traditionally larger families conceived by, in the main, Irish
Catholics within a British Isles-type axial dichotomy.
So
much,
then,
for
a
lopsided
perspective on
who or what the world (which I am not in favour of) helps!
A
TAUTOLOGY
The
notion
of
straight-line
divergence
would
be
tautological. Anything that explodes in
straight lines can only be divergent – and female, whether absolutely (metachemical) or relatively (chemical), that is,
in terms
of squares or rectangles. It is the
product of a vacuum, and contrasts with what is centred in a plenum,
like the
slap with the punch.
NO
BIBLE
STOOGE
Although
I
occasionally
use
the
Adamic paradigm as
describing the ‘Fall of Man’ from noumenal
heavenliness/godliness to worldly (pseudo-earthly)
phenomenality adjacent to that order of
worldliness
(purgatorial) germane to Woman as the Eve-like creature who can only
achieve
the regressive transcendence of a surrogate plenum (child) via the
exploitation
(seduction) of the male, I have never been of the Biblical opinion that
Adam
precedes Eve … as the male the female or, in generic terms, man
preceding
woman, since it appears incontrovertible to me that woman is the
anterior sex
from whom man emerged and because of which the struggle towards a
heavenly/godly solution in metaphysics is always an uphill one, given
the
traditional – one might say, fundamental – female dominance of things
in back
of anything male. I am confident that
John Cowper Powys, for one, would have no difficulty with this argument.
The
‘Fall of Man’
(when male) into familial servitude due to female pressures is the only
‘fall’
one can reasonably postulate. And that
is in relation to males who actually become to a degree metaphysical,
not to
those – probably the great majority – who are seduced by the ‘forbidden
tree of
knowledge’ into physics and are thus axially polar to the metachemical
female who should – in Anglican monarchic fashion – find it easier to
dominate
such males from an axially hegemonic standpoint, not from, as with
metaphysical
males, a contrary axial standpoint which, by religious definition, will
necessitate greater effort on the female’s part.
I
believe
the
principal
indicator
of
a male who
becomes more metaphysical than physical is a love for rock, and
associated
types of contemporary music, and a tendency to reject formal education,
not
least in relation to so-called further education, so that he is
somewhat of a
hippy or freak type as opposed to a regular college-educated (physical)
male,
who may well be into sports, to boot.
As
regards
the
starting
point
for
males as well
as females, it is neither metaphysical (and/or physical) nor metachemical, but more chemical/pseudo-physical
(according
to gender), and therefore it could be said that, contrary to being made
in the
‘image of God’ (a misnomer) man, speaking generically, is the product
of woman,
not least the chemical free soma (as opposed to bound psyche) of pride
and
strength, Purgatory the Clear Spirit (spirit per se) and Woman the
Mother, so
that far from resembling a psyche preceding and preponderating over
soma
(metaphysical and/or physical) situation initially, he is closer,
whether boy
or girl, to the somatic precedence and predominance over psyche of his
mother,
and is accordingly more congenial, because relative, to her than would
otherwise be the case, i.e., when the male child attains to puberty and
either
gravitates towards physics (2½:1½ free psyche to bound soma) or towards
metaphysics (3:1 free psyche to bound soma) in which positions he will
be at
variance, whether axially or in terms of polarity, with the somatic
predominance of, in particular, females who have gravitated, following
childhood, to metachemistry and
accordingly exemplify
a free somatic/bound psychic disposition (3:1) that is fated, in the
interests
of acquiring a surrogate plenum through maternity, to war on the male,
whether
metaphysical or physical (depending on his ethnicity and/or
physiological type)
preparatory to – at least in the metaphysical case – bringing him low
(a
‘fall’), as and when he succumbs to her beauty (coupled to love) and
ends up
fathering children … to the detriment of his gender attainment, with
puberty,
to free psyche and bound soma, or that which puts him at variance, if
not
loggerheads, with the adult female.
In
Britain,
the
tendency
of
male
maturity is to
gravitate towards physics rather than metaphysics, given its Protestant
opposition, traditionally, to Catholicism, and therefore to partake of
the
‘forbidden tree of knowledge’ (in physics) at the expense of
metaphysical
transcendentalism/idealism and the possibility, assuming one does not
succumb
to female seductions, of developing into a ‘philosopher king’ and even,
in
exceptional instances, someone credibly messianic, the logical outcome
of such
a ‘king’. For only the latter individual
would have the know-how and, eventually, means to deliver the
pseudo-physical
(through salvation) to metaphysics and have the chemical delivered
(through
counter-damnation) to pseudo-metachemistry,
a
position requiring the cooperation, as it were, of a pseudo-female
pseudo-Devil
whose duty it was to take care of the chemical (females) while their
pseudo-physical (pseudo-male) counterparts on the
church-hegemonic/state-subordinate
axis were being saved (as from female dominion in chemistry over
pseudo-physics
at the southwest point of the intercardinal
axial
compass).
There
is
a
lot
wrong
with
the Edenic myth, as
with Genesis and the Old Testament generally,
and it behoves us to extricate ourselves from this account of Creation
and to
adopt a more realistic and even scientifically factual account of how
humanity
or mankind or Man came to pass and, not least, who precedes whom in
terms of
gender, particularly as the term God is a misnomer used in relation to
Devil
the Mother, i.e. the metachemical ‘first
mover’, and
not to anything or, rather, anyone metaphysical, wherein Heaven
precedes
godliness, as Soul the ‘bovaryized’ ego
(compared to
physical ego) that can be termed super-ego, and that stands as a
truthful
testament to the prior existence of Joy, like a light (halo/smile)
around the
flame of the soul’s inner burning, or being.
Thus
there
is
no
God
‘in
the Beginning’ and Man
was not created in God’s image (as noted above), since the precedence
of soma
by psyche (or body by mind) only becomes perceptible in the male with
or
following puberty and is not characteristic of the feminine-like child
who is,
of course, closer to his mother in physiological/psychological make up,
irrespective of gender, and therefore an energetic creature
(animal-like) who
exemplifies more soma than psyche, more body than mind, and can only
continue
to do so until the dawn of puberty and a gradual break with the mother
and all
things feminine, whether in terms of superfeminine
metachemistry for girls or of masculine
physics and/or supermasculine metaphysics
for boys, the latter of whom
would more approximate a ‘godly image’ to the extent that they come to
reflect
the precedence of soma by psyche to an absolute degree, i.e. 3:1;
though it
should not be forgotten that in metaphysics, the religious element par
excellence, soul takes precedence over ‘bovaryized’
ego
(super-ego)
as
Heaven
over
God or, rather,
godliness, and Joy over Truth, so that we still have to distinguish his
coming
of metaphysical age, so to speak, from an ‘image-of-God’ conception
that,
frankly, grants too much credit to God (at the expense of Heaven) and
then,
where the increase-and-multiply ethos of the Bible is concerned, in
relation to
Devil the Mother hyped as God the Father, so that the term ‘God’
becomes
untenable from a properly metaphysical standpoint and has to be held at
arm’s
length, so to speak, by recourse to such (down-played) terms as
‘godliness’ or
‘godfatherliness’ or, as above, godly. There is no God-thingfulness
in metaphysics, only a state of mind (super-ego) that, in truth,
reflects the
joyful essence of the metaphysical soul, which is soul per se, and the
be-all-and-end-all of metaphysics, as of true religion, the heavenly
ground of supreme being (joy).

MALE
ABSTRACTIONS
If

then
so,

take-away meals wrapped in cellophane or whatever from supermarkets. So, too, would be abstract art.
Male
hegemonic
realities
lead
to
a
proliferation
of abstractions, and that, vis-à-vis the female-dominated
tradition,
is a good (beneficial/desirable) thing or, rather, rejection of
concrete thingfulness in favour of
abstract thinglessness,
in keeping with the psychic preponderance (over soma) of what is
properly – and
freely - male.
IMAGE
OF
WOMAN
Humans
are
not
made
in
the
psyche-over-soma
image of God, as the Bible claims, but in the soma-over-psyche image of
Woman
(the Mother), from whom they gravitate, following puberty, to either metachemistry (females) or metaphysics and/or
physics
(males), the latter of whom are then more usually picked off by the
XX-chromosomal cosh … of females, to assume a pseudo-metaphysical
deference to metachemistry prior to a
pseudo-physical ‘fall’ in
conjunction with the attainment of a surrogate plenum (in chemistry) by
the
female, who is then primarily Purgatory the Clear Spirit (pride) and
secondarily Woman the Mother (strength) of chemical free soma, the
beneficiary,
either way, of a regressive transcendence.
And, as noted, this is so of the physical no less than the
metaphysical,
since, despite pretensions to the contrary, they, too, are ‘picked off’
by
females and end-up living in familial circumstances effectively, if not
officially or consciously, dominated by females, despite their
equivocal
hegemony over pseudo-chemistry and the resulting tendency towards small
families. But to suppose that the
Protestant (puritan) female had no beauty (and love) to begin with …
but was
merely pseudo-proud and pseudo-strong in free psyche and pseudo-humble
and
pseudo-weak in bound soma … would not leave much room for seduction or
romance.
NO
DIVINE
ORIGIN
The
world
depends
for
its
existence
upon
evil/crime; without these metachemical
factors,
epitomized by the noumenal female, it
would be unable
to exist. Therefore the world shows
itself to be unworthy of divine sanction, and should accordingly be
‘overcome’
in the interests of the salvation of the sinful/foolish pseudo-physical
‘meek’
to metaphysics and the correlative counter-damnation of the
pseudo-criminal/pseudo-evil chemical ‘pseudo-vain’ to pseudo-metachemistry, the neutralized dragon
(pseudo-dragon) under
the saintly heel, so to speak, as of the so-called ‘lion’ that is
perforce
obliged to ‘lie down’, in pseudo-metachemistry
under
metaphysics, with the ‘lamb’ of saintly righteousness.
For
only
such
a
deliverance
of
those at the
southwest point of the intercardinal axial
compass to
its northeast point on the (stepped-up)
church-hegemonic/state-subordinate axis
will bring down the metachemical ‘vain’
and their
pseudo-male dupes, the pseudo-metaphysical ‘pseudo-meek’, obliging them
to rub
shoulders in damnation with the pseudo-chemical ‘just’ and in
counter-salvation
with the physical ‘pseudo-righteous’, prior to the total eclipse of
state-hegemonic/church-subordinate axial criteria, as and when the
remnants
thereof are transferred to middle and bottom tier positions (on the
triadic
Beyond of the resurrected church-hegemonic axis) under the
metaphysical/pseudo-metachemical top tier
in what, in overall terms, would be
the initial inescapable pluralism of a process destined to culminate,
following
long-term centro-complexification, in
totalitarian
absolutism, a totalitarianism in which only metaphysics and pseudo-metachemistry would be effectively germane, not
least in
respect of a kind of space-centre ‘Celestial City’ with a subsumed
‘pseudo-Vanity Fair’.
A
GENDER
PARADOX
The
advantage
of
being
a
‘nobody’
is that one
is more likely to be a ‘someone’, whereas a so-called ‘somebody’ is
almost
invariably a ‘no-one’ when it comes to having a mind and being able to
systematically develop and/or fearlessly express it.
EQUALITARIANISM
Equalitarianism
always
leads
to
one
thing
– a
loss of values, whether in respect of class, gender, race, or
profession.
Socialism
opposes
values
because
it
reduces
– or
strives to reduce – everything to a valueless equalitarianism. Ultimately, life becomes meaningless under an
equalitarian system.
Equalitarianism
is
a
worldly
levelling
that
fights
shy of diabolic and divine inequalities as it struggles to
maintain the
equalitarian reductionism of life, through democracy, towards the
lowest-common-denominator of worldly secularism.
DEMOCRACY
As
for
democracy-proper
–
it
tends
towards the
pseudo-economics of socialism and is therefore not a male but a female
(political) dominated society which the
To
some
extent,
the
Church
continued
to pose as
that in the Republic, i.e. the true end of society; though these days
it has
been sidelined by a quasi-plutocratic sell-out which is the victim, in
no small
measure, of Anglo-American, not to mention European, pressures on the
Irish
economy.
As
for
me,
I
repudiate
everything
that is not
Social Theocratic and therefore profoundly religious, except, of
course, the
subordinate corollary of a pseudo-scientific ‘pseudo-dragon’ fated or
destined
to pseudo-metachemically remain under the
saintly
heel (of metaphysics) up at the northeast point of the intercardinal
axial compass on what, following a majority mandate for religious
sovereignty,
would be the resurrected (post-Catholic)
church-hegemonic/state-subordinate
axis.
SOVEREIGN
PEOPLE
The
People
would
not
hail
the
Social Theocratic
leader for the simple reason that they would still, as now, be
sovereign –
sovereign, that is, in religious rather than political terms, with a
corresponding order of rights both strictly theocratic (metaphysical)
and pseudo-autocratic
(pseudo-metachemical), this latter of
course the
subordinate position in regard to females, whose pseudo-metachemical
existence under the hegemonic control of metaphysics would be akin to
pseudo-space (spaced) under time (repetitive), the time, needless to
say, of
Eternity within the framework of ‘Kingdom Come’.
NATURE
OF
THE
MIDDLE
CLASSES
The
middle
classes
are
not
interested
in truth,
as I understand it (metaphysically), but only in defending the status
quo
which, in their case, equates with the safeguarding of plutocratic
humanism.
REVOLUTIONARY
RESPONSIBILITIES
A
thoroughgoing
revolution
that
is
minded
of
the desirability of advancing religious sovereignty and removing
obstacles,
both political and religious, not to mention economic and scientific,
to its
advancement in the People can only be led by an extraordinary
individual – one
so extraordinary as to be virtually dictatorial in his messianic
‘omniscience’.
But
such
power
as
devolves
upon
him from the
People, having elected through him for religious sovereignty, can only
be used
in the interests of the religiously sovereign, not for any other,
unrelated
purpose.
HITLER
Hitler
was
a
warmonger. He violated the
Thus

the
Second
World
War,
and Hitler,
despite initial successes, eventually got what he deserved – total and
utter
defeat, even if at the price for Britain and France of cooperation with
the
Soviet Union, that former co-invader of Poland, and, of course, an
immense
input, utterly crucial to the outcome, from the USA.
CHURCHILL
Churchill
may
or
may
not,
as
an Anglican, have
been a Jew-ridden autocrat, but whatever he was he morally responded to
a
situation that was imposed upon him by Hitler’s criminality and the
manifest
unsuitability of his government predecessor (Chamberlain) in dealing
with
Hitler as he deserved – ruthlessly and without equivocation.
FREEDOM
There
is
no
great
merit
in
freedom; it is the
natural state-of-affairs. But once you
have found your freedom you must remain bound to it, else the opposite
of
freedom and binding, which is anarchy, will ensue.
RELIGION
AND
SCIENCE
The
less
religion
the
more
science, the less
rebirths the more births, and the
world, taken at face value, becomes increasingly overcrowded or
overpopulated,
and the accomplice, in consequence, of mass movements and ideologies. A world without hope of divine redemption
(overcoming) through religion, which is – or should be – about
deliverance from
the mass and therefore a whittling down of numbers through communal centro-complexification.
FOREIGNERS
Sympathy
for
the
Devil
now
takes
the form of
sympathy for foreigners – mostly third world – trying to bring down
Western
civilization, which, in a global age, is understandable if not exactly
laudable.
SOLITARY
HOUSEHOLDER
The
solitary
householder,
in
some
suburban
or
rural setting, is always prey to the fear
of burglary
and/or mugging. There is a price to be
paid for living in isolation from the urban generality in their
terraced or
semi-terraced housing, both financially and psychologically.
‘FLY
SWAT’
It
is
easier,
in
Nietzschean
parlance, to be a ‘fly swat’ than not to be a ‘fly swat’ when one lives
in
close proximity to the generality of people.
But it only plays into their hands and ultimately is not worth
the
trouble.
GENDER

CONVENIENT
FICTION
Do
we
really
live
in
2010
A.D., or is that just
a convenient fiction over the plethora of heathenistic

BOOKS
People
into
rock
music
often
buy
books when,
really, they should be buying e-books.
FEMALE
FREEDOM
I’ve
always
viewed
female
freedom,
which
is
bodily, as a threat to male freedom, which, by contrast, is mental,
that is,
psychic, or of the mind.
CONCRETION
VIS-À-VIS
ABSTRACTION
Concretion
wars, in gender terms, upon abstraction, the
body on the mind, and strives, with all its will, to bend the abstract
to its
concrete cause, namely the propagation, through sex, of offspring. It is perfectly possible to believe in a
body-mind symbiosis in connection with female triumphalism, which seeks
to dominate
and subjugate males.
A
mind-body
symbiosis,
on
the
other
hand, is
only intelligible in relation to male hegemonic criteria, which, even
if it
doesn’t exactly establish a genuine mind-body symbiosis in the female,
at least
neutralizes and subjugates the body-mind symbiosis, making it less
likely to
openly prevail.
WRITING
Sometimes
the
writing
capacity
‘dries
up’;
at
other times it ‘flows in torrents’, like a fast-moving stream.
Writing
is
far
less
troublesome
than
computing
– you just get on with it.
APHORISTIC
The
philosopher
who
doesn’t
become
increasingly
aphoristic
(and metaphysical) is either standing still or going
backwards.
(Assuming he isn’t a Lockean clod into
essays
because, racially or ethnically, he has no alternative but to be
corporeal).
WHO
I
AM
I
am
not
only
the
Sartre
or Nietzsche of my
generation; I am the best self-taught philosopher who ever lived, as my
centretruths website would attest.
PROTESTANTS
Much
as
I
despise
Catholics,
I
have nothing but
contempt for the philosophy of Protestants; it not only doesn’t add up,
it
can’t add up, because too autocratically or ‘democratically’ (plutocratically) narrow.
THE
ENGLISH
The
English,
being
overwhelmingly
Protestant,
will
be
the last people to accord recognition to my philosophy, which
is too profoundly
religious, i.e. metaphysical, for their empirical capacities, grounded
in
scientific experiment, to accommodate.
They are a people for whom the subjective is taboo.
So, in other respects, are the British
generally.
NEW
WAY
OF
WRITING
I’ve
discovered
a
new
way
of
writing: when my
internet-ridden computer lets me down (as it frequently does) I
scribble into a
notebook.
Alternatively,
it
helps
to
have
two
computers
‘on the go’ at any given time, so that you can switch between them when
the
‘going gets tough’ (or ceases altogether) with either of them.
MASS
MUSIC
The
one
constant
feature
about
mass
or popular
music is that it is detestable at any level.
MUSIC
KEYBOARD
The
black-on-white
keys
of
a
music
keyboard,
even with samples, no longer appeal to me.
I would be a hypocrite to play such an instrument while
publishing my
literature on the internet in white-on-black.
A white-on-black music keyboard, on the other hand, would be
fine for
someone who believes in a non-book-like approach to text, an approach
that
appears or, rather, seems to favour free psyche over bound soma.
SARTRE
Was
it
Sartre
who
said
that
other people are
hell? How right he was!
But I should like to add computers to the
observation, preferably when connected to the internet.
SECULAR
AGE
Only
in
an
age
as
secular
as this would it be
possible for so-called human beings to spend so much time in front of
machines
– far more time than monkeys would be prepared to spend, if we recall
D.H.
Lawrence’s gripe!
WAX
EARPLUGS
It
would
be
no
exaggeration
to
say that my
chief mainstay, that which has made it possible for me to continue in a
culturally intellectual lifestyle since moving from Surrey to London
(1974) has
been wax earplugs, to which I have taken regular recourse both during
the day
and at night to protect me from the noise of neighbours, few if any of
whom
have been consistently quiet.
THE

The
People
–
a

the

KOESTLER
Koestler
–
fundamentally
a
cosmic
materialist
with
an empirical axe to grind at the expense, needless to say, of
progressive
transcendentalism.
I
hardly
think
Sartre
was
a
worse, i.e. lower,
type of philosopher than Koestler, that Ena
Sharples-admiring jumped-up political
émigré hack.
NO
HOPE
FOR
MANKIND
There
is
no
hope
for
mankind,
least of all when
humanistically left to its own democratic
devices. Hope is a question for radical
theocrats and their ability to overcome mankind in the name of cyborgkind.
The
cyborgistic
overcoming of mankind through democracy towards a radical, or social
theocratic, end – isn’t that at the core of my philosophy?
TIME
WASTED
Time
wasted
staring
at
the
computer
screen when
– as is all too often the case - it jams up or ceases to function
properly – so
much time and sight wasted on mechanical rubbish!
No
wonder
our
age
is
so
sad! We are all too
often the victims of crappy machines/technologies which poison the soul
and blight
the mind, as well as inducing eyestrain.
CLOSE
TO
NATURE
Those
who
wish
to
get
close
to Nature forget or
conveniently overlook the fact that it is a bitch pregnant with
predatory zeal
that desires, from a male perspective, only the contempt fitting to an
object
of unchristian aggression and mercenary unquiet.
BOURGEOIS
DECADENCE
The
decadence
of
bourgeois
civilization,
i.e.
women
priests, is one thing; proletarian barbarism and philistinism
quite another,
even if the two realities co-exist in this (transitional) day and age
on a
classical music/rock-like basis.
DIABOLICAL
EQUATION
‘Energy
=
MC²’
–
a
diabolical
equation rooted
in cosmic materialism.
IRISH
‘INDEPENDENT’
Buy
the
‘Irish
Independent’
and
read
the ‘Daily
Telegraph’ and the ‘Times’, those two worthy right-wing British
newspapers.
On
second
thoughts,
one
can
at
least console
oneself that the general standard of typography with articles from
those titles
will be higher.
ACTING
UP
Acting
up
for
other
people
–
I gave that up
years ago. No wonder I don’t have a
woman – I couldn’t act up for her.
All
acting
up
is
rooted
in
vanity.
The
actor
is,
by
definition,
of
female
persuasion.
NONSENSICAL
NOTION
Male
ego
was
behind
the
nonsensical
notion (in
Genesis) that man preceded woman and was, in some degree, responsible
for her
creation. What a joke!
As
everyone
should
know,
the
more
complex
arises out of the simpler, like man out of woman. Eggs and chickens.
SHAW
Shaw
was
not
even
a
poetic
sonofabitch. As a
playwright he was a ‘quasi-bitch’. The
worst type of literary animal – virtually
criminal
WOMEN
AND
KIDS
Oh
to
be
free
of
the
tyranny of women and kids!
Wouldn’t that be closer to
LIFE
Some
say
life
is
too
long,
others – and usually
the majority – that it is too short. For
my part, I say it depends on one’s circumstances, and I, for one, the
solitary
victim of decades of exile from nation and class, would categorically
find it
far too long.
BLACK
Black
=
heathenistic bitch-loving
fool (at least in a majority of cases), though with the compensatory
honesty to
call a spade a spade and a bitch a … bitch!
MY
COMPUTERS
My
computers
are
so
bad
(slow,
inept, noisy,
etc.) that it makes more sense to scribble in my notebook than to waste
time
(and health) staring interminably at a non-functioning screen.
Could
anything
be
worse
than
Always
being
held
up
by
computers
– the most
frustrating of experiences! How I detest
these f***ing useless machines! And despise myself for being so soulless that
I can put up with them!
Sometimes
I
feel
like
giving-up
computing
and
going back to writing again, so frustrating and humiliating is the
computer
experience….Not that I ever entirely stopped writing, but it did get
rather
scaled down due to other – and usually worse - commitments.
WHORES
The
problem
of
whores
and
an
overcrowded
world. Nothing to do with
godliness, much less Heaven.
DISTINCT
DIFFERENCE
There’s
a
distinct
difference
between
being
a
master of one’s life and a victim of machines.
RELIGIOUS
FAKES
All
those
religious
fakes
keep
speaking
of God
as though that were the crux of religion.
And, of course, God made man, etc., etc. The hell she did!
U2
How
I
detest
that
U2
song
‘Beautiful Day’. So
modern, so heathenistic,
so … shallow and complacently acquiescent in the natural status quo! But this is not an age in which Truth, in the
religious or metaphysical sense, would be encouraged, let alone
understood.
FEMALE
VALUES
With
women’s
liberation,
or
feminism,
one
can
only expect society, well accustomed to female dominion, to accord
value to
beauty and, well, strength or, rather, pride, since that, too, is
female in
character.
Truth
is
a
pariah
in
contemporary
female-dominated
society, with its Beauty-oriented materialism and pride-oriented
naturalism.
Even
knowledge-proper,
which
appertains
to
ego,
gets
a raw deal these days, since it would seem to be associated, all
too
often, with bourgeois tradition and an opposition, by implication, to
carnal
knowledge, which defers, after all, to the hegemony of female values,
particularly pride and strength, and has more of a black racial
overtone that
complicates and, as with all such matters, further exacerbates the
majority Western
position to a point where it cannot be evaluated except in relation to
the
impact, for better or worse, of coloured elements within the slowly
unfolding
global context.
RELIGIOUS
TRADITIONS
Judaism
extolled
Will,
Catholicism
Spirit,
Protestantism
or,
rather, Puritanism the Ego, and … but no, it is difficult if not
impossible
to think of a traditional religion which extolled Soul, at least to any
appreciable extent. That would seem to
be for the future, when Eternity comes to pass and machines no longer
dominate
but serve, as though in the background to a more important eventuality.
JEWS
AND
MOSLEMS
Jews
and
Moslems
are
even
worse
than Christians
in relation to the God-thing, or deity thingfulness,
since
they
relate,
in
all-too-Middle-Eastern
netherworldly
vein, to the so-called Almighty, the ‘All-Powerful’ Creator, whereas
Christians, being more worldly (in historical and environmental terms)
usually
make do with the extrapolative personifications like Mary and Christ
which, to
my mind, is the prerogative of half-wits rather than nitwits, or those
for whom
Beauty takes precedence not only over Truth (joy) but over Strength
(pride) and
Knowledge (pleasure) as well. Ugh! How I
detest the Netherworldly and their
pseudo-Otherworldly dupes.
DISHONESTY
AND
MORAL
COWARDICE
Of
all
the
forms
of
dishonesty,
there is
nothing worse than religious dishonesty and the moral cowardice it
breeds.
HIGHER
ART
Higher
art,
by
which
is
meant
original creative
art, is always effectively anti-People, that is, beyond the limitations
of the
masses and therefore something that proceeds independently of them on
an
intensely individual basis.
FICTION
AND
FEMINISM
Fiction
–
a
pseudo-bitch
(pseudo-chemical)
and/or
pseudo-superbitch (pseudo-metachemical)
art-form is incompatible with feminism, the female (pseudo-female)
novelist
and/or short-story writer is gender subordinate to a male hegemony in
either
physics (essayistic philosophy, or pseudo-philosophy) or metaphysics
(aphoristic philosophy, or philosophy-proper), as in pseudo-chemistry
under
physics at the southeast point of the intercardinal
axial compass and pseudo-metachemistry
under
metaphysics at the northeast point of said compass.
Therefore a ‘female’ who writes fiction (as
opposed to plays) isn’t in the remotest degree feminist.
As
for
those
amoral
quasi-pseudo-bitches/superbitches
who write novels and/or short stories rather
than stick to philosophy of one sort or another … I have nothing but
contempt.
They ought to be made to wear tapering skirts and/or dresses, depending
on
their literary bent.
THE
LIBERATED
FEMALE
The
liberated
female,
or
female-proper,
is
by
definition hegemonic over males (pseudo-males) in metachemistry
and/or chemistry, with the latter very much pseudo-metaphysical under metachemistry and pseudo-physical under
chemistry.
SEXUAL
EQUALITY
Equality
between
the
sexes
is
a
delusional
concept. Treating them as equals in
certain respects, i.e. salary, job entitlement, justice, etc., is of
course
another matter. Which,
of course, also applies to race.
WOMEN
PRIESTS
Much
as
I
abhor
the
Christian
(bourgeois)
decadence of so-called ‘women priests’, I nonetheless concede that
pseudo-devils will be required, as pseudo-females, to oversee the
pseudo-metachemically counter-Damned no
less than godly male
individuals to oversee the well-being of the metaphysically Saved in
the future
global or universal setting that, with the democratic acceptance of
religious
sovereignty, I identify with ‘Kingdom Come’.
There will be strict gender segregation between the saintly
metaphysical
and the pseudo-angelic pseudo-metachemical,
as
between religion and pseudo-science, righteousness and pseudo-justice,
time and
pseudo-space, eternity and pseudo-infinity, noumenal
subjectivity and noumenal
pseudo-objectivity, extreme
right-wing and extreme pseudo-left-wing criteria, as germane to the supercross and the pseudo-superstar of a St
George and the
(neutralized) dragon-like scenario that would be equivalent to choppers
and
jump jets (pseudo-jets) or, in the latter instance, the ‘lion’ that is
perforce
obliged to pseudo-justly ‘lie down’ with the ‘lamb’ … of saintly
righteousness.
THE
CONTEMPORARY
WORLD
The
contemporary
world
is
dominated
by
devils, or
liberated females who ‘strut their stuff’ the better to captivate and
dominate
males, who are then reduced to pseudo-male sons-of-bitches. The only way to defeat this is to so save the
pseudo-physical ‘meek’ to metaphysics and so counter-damn the chemical
‘pseudo-vain’ to pseudo-metachemistry that
there will
no longer be an audience, a gullible public, a lapsed catholic
generality,
etc., for the devils (and pseudo-metaphysical pseudo-gods) to exploit,
and no
way that they and their human-all-too-human physical/pseudo-chemical
financial
backers on the state-hegemonic/church-subordinate axis (northwest to
southeast
on the intercardinal axial compass) could
continue to
profit from the exemplifications of somatic licence which characterize
their
purely evil concept of freedom – one necessarily female in character in
its
illustration of a beautiful free will.
INDIGENOUS
IRISH
SPORTS
Indigenous
Irish
sports
–
Gaelic
football,
Hurling,
and Camogie – have the advantage
over their
British-derived imperial counterparts - rugby, football, and cricket –
of being
church-hegemonic/state-subordinate, and therefore germane to a people
for whom
the southwest and northeast points of the intercardinal
axial compass are integral to their sense of axial polarity as
exemplified
through cultural ethnicity.

MALE
ENSLAVEMENT
TO
FEMALES
Do
females
enslave
males? Yes, they most
certainly do, whether to an
absolute degree (in metachemistry over
pseudo-metaphysics) or to a relative degree (in chemistry over
pseudo-physics),
that is, whether in the ethereal terms of a 1:3 ratio of free soma to
bound
psyche (contrasting with the female 3:1 ratio) or in the corporeal
terms of a
1½:2½ ratio of free soma to bound psyche (contrasting with the female
2½:1½
ratio). Either way the male, as
pseudo-male sonofabitch, is preponderantly enslaved by the free female
and
accordingly obliged to live more on the ‘dark side’ (bound psyche) than
in ‘the
light’ (of free soma) – in complete contrast to the free female.
WAR
AND
PEACE
War
and
peace
–
the
alpha
and omega of life,
autocracy and theocracy, metachemistry and
metaphysics, Devil and God or, more accurately, Heaven, will and soul,
whether
in cosmic, natural, human, or (to anticipate the future) cyborg
terms or, indeed, right across the board, as it were, from the utmost
alpha in metachemical cosmos
(stellar-like) to the utmost (coming)
metaphysical omega (subjectively cyborgistic).
‘KINGDOM
COME’
In
‘Kingdom
Come’,
which
I
equate
with a Social
Theocratic society centred (at least for the metaphysical) in religious
sovereignty, the males will be metaphysically free (in psyche) and the
females
pseudo-metachemically bound (in soma) – the
reverse,
in other words, of what exists in the netherworldly/pseudo-otherworldly
context
of
contemporary
metachemistry over
pseudo-metaphysics.
MARRIAGE
Anyone,
that
is,
any
male,
who
wants to get
married must be fuck*** mad – certainly off his head, having ‘lost it’
to a
woman. Then he officially becomes a
ring-toting sonofabitch, whether in his ear or, in the ‘fallen’ state
commensurate with marriage, on his finger.
AUTHORS
An
author
should
be
authoritative,
but
evidently
not authoritarian. Where is
the logic in that?
DERIVATION
OF
SIR
Most
people
probably
don’t
realize
that
‘sir’
derives from ‘sire’, its medieval counterpart.
YES
Despite
their
instrumental
brilliance
I
really
don’t
like the rock band Yes, largely because of their sun-oriented
lyrics
which strike me as crassly heathen. Also
It
would
be
no
exaggeration
to
say that there
is an obsession with the Sun with Yes or
Sunday
is
the
‘ideal’
day,
it seems to me, on which to play Yes, not least the ‘Live at Montreux 2003’ DVD.
Lyrically
Yes are
terrible – their songs make me cringe.
In
some
respects
(though
not
the
obvious ones)
Yes would be more suited to the Proms than to a jazz festival like Montreux. They
aren’t exactly classical, no, but then again they aren’t jazz either. No doubt, the Montreux
Festival profits from selling out to Rock.
SUNDAY
Fancy
calling
the
traditional
Christian
day
of
rest Sunday! What could be further from
the spirit of Christ? Is a country with
a day called Sunday, i.e. day of the Sun, really Christian? I doubt it.
In fact, I completely deny it.
Actually
the
Sun
is
Satanic,
that
is, what
corresponds to the pseudo-Father and pseudo-Son (3:1) rolled into one
and
dominated, stellar-wise, by the metachemical
Mother
and Daughter (3:1), the free soma and bound psyche that rules the
pseudo-metaphysical ‘fall guy’, or solar sonofabitch.
MY
LIFE’S
WORK
All
my
life’s
work
–
the
literature (especially
philosophy), art, photography, videos, literary transcripts, music,
website
building, etc. – has been a compensation for the emptiness and
loneliness of
exile from my native land (
MIXED
CONGREGATIONS
The
disgusting
spectacle
of
mixed
congregations
in
churches – what can they know of godliness (in relation, more
importantly,
to Heaven, as of ‘bovaryized’ ego
[super-ego] in
relation to Soul) who make a show of worshipping God, whether in the
‘Person’
of the so-called Father or in His Son?
CREATIVE
CONTRADICTION
Man
might,
as
superman,
be
‘made
in the image
of God’ or, rather, Heaven/godliness to the extent that his psyche
(mind)
precedes and preponderates over his soma (body) to a 3:1 degree,
commensurate
with noumenal absolutism in metaphysics
(subjective),
but that would not apply to the 2½:1½ ratio of psyche to soma
characterizing
man per se as a physical entity
paradoxically subject to subversion to somatic emphasis in secondary
state-hegemonic/church-subordinate axial vein vis-à-vis the primary
state-hegemonic/church-subordinate axial status of pseudo-chemical
pseudo-females in gender polarity with their metachemical
female counterparts who, of course, hegemonically
‘call the shots’ in relation to a 3:1 free somatic/bound psychic
disposition.
Nor
would
it
explain
how,
having
at the
superhuman level been made in godly image, ‘man’ allowed this same
‘God’ to
fashion ‘woman’ from his ribs as a creature not only at gender
loggerheads with
anything godly (and metaphysical) but,
in her free soma and bound psyche, at variance with him to the extent
that,
succumbing to carnal temptation, he is no longer able to remain true to
his
self (soul) but is perforce obliged to ‘walk the world’ as a familial
exile
from Paradise.
A
god
who
makes
something
or,
rather, somebody
in the opposite image to himself is a contradiction in terms, like the
Genesis
account of ‘the Garden’ and, indeed, of all Creation.
The
sooner
this
Biblical
nonsense
is
officially
consigned to the ‘rubbish heap of history’ the better; for the Bible is
a
tissue of lies and contradictions that, notwithstanding the innumerable
anachronisms characterizing its ancient Middle Eastern origins,
actually
favours Devil the Mother hyped as God the Father and Her entitlement,
under a
beautiful free will, to ‘increase and multiply’.
Of
course,
there
are
also
people
who prefer
Christ, the so-called ‘Son of God’, hyped as God and even some, mostly
female,
who regard the so-called ‘Mother of God’ in such an idolatrous light. All deluded and partial,
in
consequence, to ‘bovaryized’ religion, i.e.
to the
conventional religious traditions of Western and even Eastern
civilization.
RELIGION
AND
THE
PEOPLE
The
People,
meaning
principally
the
broad
uncivilized
(barbarous/philistine) masses, are never too partial to
genuine
religion (about which, in any case, they can have only the foggiest
idea), in which
abstract values preponderate, by dint of their propensity towards
concrete
values owing not a little to the sexual and familial domination of
females
which, with them, is virtually inevitable and regarded, in a manner of
speaking, as de rigueur.
GREATER
PEACE
To
establish
a
greater
peace,
a
more genuine
peace (inner), in which the male is elevated (through salvation) from a
pseudo-male pseudo-physical status under chemical females, as
pseudo-mass under
volume, to a properly male metaphysical standing over pseudo-metachemical pseudo-females or, rather, pseudo-superfemales, as time over pseudo-space, the
‘first’, in
respect of the chemical, becoming pseudo-metachemically
‘last’ and the ‘last’, in respect of the pseudo-physical, becoming
metaphysically ‘first’ in an unequivocal hegemony at the northeast
point of the
intercardinal axial compass on what would
be a
stepped up (resurrected) church-hegemonic/state-subordinate axis
stretching
from southwest to northeast points of the said compass … to establish
such a
greater peace, I say, one would have to war on ‘the People’ as
chemical/pseudo-physical elements in order to overcome their familial,
worldly
and effectively female-dominated status, with intent, in effect, to
overcoming
‘the world’ as it exists at the southwest point of the aforementioned
compass
and therefore in axial contrast to the physical/pseudo-chemical
manifestation
of it at the southeast, which, due to its economic hegemony in physics,
is
financially ‘hand in glove’ with the somatic licence of the
female-dominated metachemical/pseudo-metaphysical
northwest
point
of
the
intercardinal axial
compass on what, by contrast, is the
state-hegemonic/church-subordinate axis and secular fruit, in this day
and age,
of schismatic heresy. One might even say
that the relationship of the physical/pseudo-chemical to the metachemical/pseudo-metaphysical resembles a
Faustian pact,
in which the knowledge-compromised soul is sold to the beautiful free
will that
rules a diabolic or devilish roost.
THE
ENEMY
Am
I
an
enemy
of
‘the
People’? No.
Actually, I’m the enemy of the metachemical/pseudo-metaphysical
elements
at
the
northwest
point
of
the intercardinal
axial compass who prey upon the chemical/pseudo-physical elements from
the netherworldly standpoint of
female-dominated somatic
licence and thereby preclude their deliverance (to metaphysics/pseudo-metachemistry) and effective ‘end of the world’,
as that
much-preyed upon gender dichotomous entity that is only an
end-in-itself as far
as the regressive transcendence of females is concerned.
To
me,
the
chemical/pseudo-physical
elements
are
pawns
in my game of putting the metachemical/pseudo-metaphysical
‘out
of
business’
for
want
of
prey down at the southwest point of the said
compass and therefore damned (metachemistry
to
pseudo-chemistry) and counter-saved (pseudo-metaphysics to physics),
and, as
pawns, they cannot be enemies but, rather, means to a specific end –
the
progressive transcendence of pseudo-physics in metaphysics on the male
side
coupled to the regressive counter-fundamentalism (counter-materialism)
of
chemistry to pseudo-metachemistry on the
female side.

SUPERIMPOSITION
That
superimposition
of
feminist
secularism
upon
decadent
bourgeois civilization ensures that the latter is often
conditioned by the former to an extent whereby it comes to mirror the
barbarous/philistine criteria largely applying to the proletariat, not
least in
respect of the Protestant-oriented phenomenon of so-called women
priests. Bah! What a shambles!
PSEUDO-RIGHT-WING
SONS-OF-BITCHES
All
those
left-wing
or,
more
correctly
vis-à-vis
their extrinsically left-wing female counterparts,
pseudo-right-wing
sons-of-bitches with their philistine acquiescence in feminist
barbarity and
all that is most democratically and socialistically superficial in
contemporary
(global) society – how they revolt me!
PRO-EXTREME
RIGHT-WING
No-one
could
be
more
pro-extreme
right-wing
than
me, the apostle of the Supercross and
its moral
entitlement to keep what I have elsewhere called the pseudo-Superstar
in its
gender subordinate place, as in pseudo-metachemistry
under metaphysics (pseudo-space under time) at the northeast point of
the intercardinal axial compass – a
neutralized dragon
(pseudo-dragon) under saintly heels, pretty much like the proverbial
‘lion’
that is perforce obliged to ‘lie down’ with the ‘lamb’ (of godliness in
relation to Heaven) because it has been neutralized and has no other
choice. Jump jet (pseudo-jet) under
chopper on an aircraft carrier would be an equivalent metaphor. But haven’t I said all this a thousand times
before?
PSYCHIC
FREEDOM
Free
speech
or,
rather,
writing
comes
with me,
not with the proletarian mob of bitch-slavering half-wits whose lips
are sealed
in all but profane contexts.
SHADOW
To
come
out
of
the
shadow
of autocracy hyped as
theocracy – what a liberation for mankind
that will
be! The genuine theocracy of Social
Theocracy and/or Transcendentalism – a male preserve, so really not
something
that would appeal to women or females generally, given their
fundamentally
autocratic dispositions, and doubtfully congenial to decadent bourgeois
vested
interests, who prefer the proletariat, the urban-cum-global generality,
under
their autocracy-deferring heels.
ANTI-PORN
Anti-porn
people
are
detestably
stupid
and
…
concrete, or human-all-too-f***ing-human.
CRT
It
is
to
be
hoped
that
with the passing of
CRT-type televisions and computers the age of the ‘hollow men’ has also
passed. For the ‘hollow men’ are those
who are most dominated by and akin to free females, who are never so televisually free than when ‘strutting their
stuff’ via the
cathode ray tube.

SPECTACLES
(Revisited)
Increasingly
I
like
to
take
a
break from the
optical straitjacket of spectacles and become optically liberated into
an impressionistic
world where ugliness (and beauty) is much less discernible. What an all-round relief!
EVERYTHING
I
DO
Everything
I
do
I
do
for
the sake of an
intellectually cultural/pseudo-civilized Few, not for the impulsively
pseudo-barbarous/philistine Many, with their hideous sports and uncouth
tempers.
The
only
thing
that
would
preclude
me from
wiping out an entire city (assuming, for the sake of argument, that I
had the
power) would be the harm that would befall the intellectually
cultural/pseudo-civilized
Few, as interpreted by me in relation to freak and/or hippy-like
artistic
radicals of a metaphysical and/or pseudo-metachemical
disposition (depending on gender).
As
for
the
barbarous/pseudo-philistine
Few
and
the
pseudo-cultural/civilized Many – right now the state-hegemonic
don’t mean
that much to me and I am not interested in their immediate welfare.
HMV
Oxford
Street
HMV
(His
Master’s
Voice
in, I
believe, two if not three locations) may be the biggest and
best-stocked of
such shops in the British Isles, but that only means that it has more
godless
junk than anywhere else, including the smaller provincial stores.
These
days,
HMV
is
a
multimedia
high-street
monopoly with little or no competition from rival digital-media
outlets, most
of which have since folded or retrenched, including Virgin Music and
Tower
Records.
HMV
sounds
like
a
disease,
though
much of its
stock is less about nourishing the Soul than appealing to people
seemingly
without one – those who have wilfully turned their back on the Soul
under
female pressures, allowing what remains of it to be bent and twisted
out of all
recognition.
SOUL-DENYING
PROTESTANTISM
Protestants
would
traditionally
have
been
even
less
likely than Catholics to acknowledge, much less
cultivate,
the Soul. Their secular descendants prefer simply to
deny it from the standpoint of materialism, which includes mechanics
and
contemporary technologies.
IRISH
POLITICS
If
there
is
anything
worse
than
the centre left
in Irish politics, i.e. Fianna Fáil,
it can only be the radical republicanism of the extreme left, meaning,
in Irish
political terms, Sinn Fein. No
self-respecting right-wing person, least of all when extreme right (noumenal), would want to have much or, indeed,
anything to
do with the likes of Sinn Fein, and the sooner this party are consigned
to the
rubbish bin of history the better.
Just
as
the
Greens,
a
right
wing (conservative
or, rather, conservationist) party, co-exist in government at the time
of
writing (2010) with the centre-left Fianna
Fáil, and have their temptations, if not
inclinations, to
get around or over Fianna Fáil
through some kind of association with the extreme left, if only to put
the
centre left under pressure, so in the future I foresee the Labour Party
as a
political assist to any pro-extreme right-wing party/movement which,
like
Social Theocracy, would take the country towards ‘Kingdom Come’, if
only to put
pressure on the centre right Fine Gael party from a left-wing
standpoint that
may well prove advantageous to the pro-extreme right, since paradoxes
of that
order are the stuff of contemporary Irish politics.
And if they do, well, rest assured that
Social Theocracy must take full advantage of anything and everything
that
encourages such a shift in political thinking.
For only then will it be possible to get rid of the scourge –
and shame
– of the radical republicanism of the extreme left, bearing in mind
Social
Theocracy’s commitment to the Centre and hence to noumenal
centrism, the means whereby extreme right and extreme pseudo-left
elements can
be reconciled in metaphysical and pseudo-metachemical
fashion, the proverbial ‘lion’ of the latter ‘lying down’ with the
‘lamb’ of
the former in what, with religious sovereignty, would be the
Centre-proper.
LAMENT
Unfortunately,
as
long
as
we
continue
to be at
the mercy of machine-making (computers not least) epsilon semi-morons,
we shall
always be held back and have our lives turned on their head, so to
speak.
SCANDAL
Life
is
a
scandal
that
few
if any of us have
the guts to cry out and revolt against, with intent to turning it
around.
SOME
AXIALLY-MOTIVATED
RACIAL
GENERALIZATIONS
Red
=
barbarism/pseudo-philistinism,
i.e.
metachemistry
and pseudo-metaphysics at the northwest point
of the intercardinal axial compass;
White
=
pseudo-culture/civility,
i.e.
physics
and
pseudo-chemistry
at the southeast point of the said axial compass;
Therefore
Red
is
polar
to White on the state-hegemonic/church-subordinate axis (as Class to
Occupation).
Black
=
pseudo-barbarism/philistinism,
i.e.
chemistry
and
pseudo-physics
at the southwest point of the intercardinal
axial compass;
Yellow
=
culture/pseudo-civility,
i.e.
metaphysics
and
pseudo-metachemistry at the
northeast
point of the said axial compass;
Therefore
Black
is
polar
to Yellow on the church-hegemonic/state-subordinate axis (as Sex to
Race).
Catholic
Irish
tend
to
be
divisible
between
Black and Yellow (as opposed to Red and White), as between Gaelic
football and
hurling on the church-hegemonic/state-subordinate axis stretching from
the
southwest to the northeast points of the intercardinal
axial compass.
Protestant
Irish,
like
their
British
counterparts,
tend
to be divisible between Red and White (as opposed to
Black
and Yellow), as between rugby and soccer on the
state-hegemonic/church-subordinate
axis stretching from the northwest to the southeast points of the intercardinal axial compass.
NIETZSCHE
Wasn’t
it
Nietzsche
who
said
women
are base but
men evil? I disagree. I think the
reverse is more true – that men are generally base but women
fundamentally
evil, i.e. somatically beautiful and sensuously loving, just the
attributes to
seduce and bring men low with – as, I’m sure, Schopenhauer would
entirely
agree.
Such
beauty
and
love
exists
in
free soma, not
bound psyche, and it exists, like ugliness and hate, metachemically,
i.e. in the fundamental female element on a materialist basis.
TRUTH
Truth,
in
the
widest
possible
and
therefore
non-theological sense, does not come to those who neither have the
balls nor
the brains for it. If you have just the
balls or the brains it tends to pass you by.
‘PR***S’
AND
‘PSEUDO-C***S’
Those
‘pr***s’
and
‘pseudo-c***s’
who
went
on
to ‘further education’ and partook more greedily of the ‘forbidden tree
of knowledge’
are always beneath me – lacking in metaphysical and/or pseudo-metachemical attributes from a standpoint
centred in
physics/pseudo-chemistry.
POE,
DE
SADE
AND
OTHERS
Poe
and
de
Sade
–
brothers
in
literary crime. Two of a kind, bar the Sadian
sexual deviance and cruelty.
Jim
Morrison
had
something
of
the
Poe in him,
being a great poet. Indubitably
one
of
the
American
classics,
despite
his all-too brief career.
Morrison
lived
up
to
the
mythic
aura of Keats
and Shelley – by dying early (27).
From
Henry
James
to
Henry
Miller

of
Ezra
Pound,
that
exquisite lyricist and fascist collaborator.
I
wrote

notes
in between watching
CSIs – including
As

in
Ginsberg’s poetry,
despite the manifest obscenities and profanities liberally scattered
throughout
the texts. His is a poetry not only
distinct from Pound, but beyond Rexroth in its mesmeric turgidities and
torturous syntax, not to mention the boldness of its ambiguities.
IRA
No
matter
how
detestable
the
IRA
may be, it was
a product of British intransigence and a consequence, in large part, of
British
imperialism, which both defines and limits the IRA and its political
wing, Sinn
Fein.
Hence
no
British
imperialism
in
But
Such
a
sell-out
has
come
to
grief and the
restoration of trust in politics demands not the continuance of
pseudo-politics
in the economic service at the southeast point of the intercardinal
axial compass, nor the restoration of politics and pseudo-economics
proper to
the catholic majority at the southwest point of the said compass,
wherein
socialist republicanism comes back on to the agenda, but, rather, the
utilization of the democratic process to a religiously sovereign end,
such that
may allow the existing republic to be transcended in the name of the
Social
Theocratic Centre and hence the concomitant salvation and
counter-damnation of
the lapsed catholic generality to a context equivalent to ‘Kingdom
Come’. For only in such an
otherworldly/pseudo-netherworldly context
could the tendency of selling-out to
capitalism be avoided, not merely averted.
TRUE
TO
SELF
The
worst
they
can
do
to
you is to stop you
from being true to yourself, your soul.
Being ‘true’ to somebody else is also counter-productive, since
it
necessarily precludes one, as a male, from being true to oneself.
Hence
to
betray
oneself,
or
one’s
self (the
soul), all one has to do is to be ‘true’ to another, like some woman
whose
beauty has seduced one and whose self is, in any case, not to be found
in
psyche but in soma, not in soul but in will and, lower down (in the
phenomenal
realm of the corporeal), not in ego but in spirit.
Few
men
wish
or,
indeed,
are
able to be true to
themselves in a world dominated by women.
The majority take it for granted that they will meet somebody,
fall in
love, get married, and raise a family. With
them,
there
is
no
prospect
of Truth,
which is to remain true to oneself or, more accurately, one’s self (the
soul)
and reflect and/or confirm its contentment in terms of a godly halo
(smile).
THE
MASSES
You
cannot
ameliorate
the
lot
of
the masses in
terms of bodily overcoming through soul except that they are overcome
by a
messianic capability and transmuted, according to gender, in either
metaphysical (male) or antimetachemical-cum-pseudometachemical
(anti-female-cum-pseudo-female) terms, terms that necessitate their
transfiguration from human (chemical/pseudo-physical) to supra-human
(as
described above), as and when a substance-motivated communal cyborgization becomes possible under the right
kind of
regime - one necessarily geared, through Social Theocracy
(transcendentalism)
to the development of ‘Kingdom Come’ at the expense of ‘the world’.
As
human
beings
they
cannot
be
delivered from
‘the world’, since the masses will always be characterized by female
dominion,
and it is precisely the domination of females that keeps the majority
of males
in a subordinate position, as mere breadwinners for the matriarchal
family.
But
if
you
can
overcome
human
life, then you
can overcome woman and establish a society whose supra-human elements,
whether
metaphysical (male) or pseudo-metachemical
(pseudo-female) will allow males to be true to themselves, their souls,
without
fear of female intervention and seduction in the interests, ultimately,
of
offspring. Only thus can ‘the world’ be
overcome and Paradise be established, one might evens say regained, if
one
wishes to reference the Biblical account of Adam before ‘the Fall’,
bearing in
mind what I have already critically said about it.
CREATION
Perhaps
the
Genesis
account
of
Creation,
whereby
‘God’ made Adam before ‘He’ fashioned Eve from one of Adam’s ribs, is
in some
degree responsible for the reluctance of many if not most people to
regard
women as the primary sex and men as secondary, since such a manifestly
objective account of the genders will appear to contradict the Bible
and,
hence, the so-called ‘word of God’. But
of course males wouldn’t succumb to females so easily and even readily
if the
latter were not, in most cases, more physically refined and
attractive-looking,
even beautiful, and able, in consequence, to get the better of them,
subordinating them, in due course, to a means whereby their need (more
than
desire) for a surrogate plenum in the form of offspring can be
gratified and,
ultimately, realized, thereby perpetuating ‘the world’ in its arguably
mainstream manifestation, which I have tended to identify with the
southwest
point of the intercardinal axial compass.
But
the
secondary
sex
before
the
primary
one? Give me a break!
Men emerge, as male babies, from women, as of
course do female babies, and that is not only how it is now but how it
has
always been. Only a fool or a biblical
lackey or simpleton would contend otherwise.
Of
course,
long
before
anyone
even
thought of
the Genesis account of Creation, never mind what subsequently turned
into the
Old Testament and, together with the New Testament, the so-called Holy
Bible,
there were cavemen who couldn’t write or read simply because such
things hadn’t
been invented then, and before them, well, dinosaurs and other
prehistoric
creatures who populated an even more dangerous – and barbarous – world
than the
one in which we are accustomed to living.
Nature is not, nor ever was, a picnic.
The predation of stronger animals upon weaker ones, of the
bigger upon
the smaller and the quicker upon the slower, is an age-old reality that
goes
way back beyond or, rather, before (anterior to) the caveman and his
illiterate
babble. We do not need some later scribe
or intellectual – primitive by contemporary standards – telling us
about the
creation of Adam as though no caveman, never mind prehistoric reptile,
had ever
existed. We do not need to listen to –
and in some cases worship – this poppycock.
What we do need is a regime
that will take it upon itself to rid the world of this idiocy once and
for all,
so that we never again have to put up with it.
Then the possibility of true religion, which has nothing to do
with free
will (beauty) and everything to do with free soul (joy), will arise,
and such
religion, appertaining to a religiously sovereign proletariat, will
know
nothing of priests or prayer-books or hymnals or churches or bibles or
confessionals or masses or sermons or anything else that stems from the
Genesis
account of Creation and flies in the face of both reason and
common sense. We need to be liberated from
all such
pre-global (Eastern and Western) anachronisms, before things will get
any
better, as and when the People are ripe for ‘Kingdom Come’.
To
be
perfectly
honest,
I
think
the author of
Genesis, if there was one (and not several), was an idiot.
To
tell
the
truth
about
God
… as Devil the
Mother hyped as God the Father …would probably constitute blasphemy in
some
people’s minds – minds unaccustomed to thought and to the exercise of
reason. In short,
simple minds.
As
for
the
truth
about
the
so-called Son of God
… or, for that matter, the so-called Mother of God in relation to what
is
supposed, in any case, to be the ‘Son of God’, one would be accused by
the
simple-minded of being even more guilty of blasphemy.
But the sad truth about Western religion,
i.e. Christianity, is that it has nothing to do with godliness as the
mere
concomitant of Heaven, of a ‘bovaryized’
ego
(super-ego) bearing witness to the Soul, because rooted in the Judaic
Creator
(Jehovah) and therefore stemming from Devil the Mother hyped as God …
with all
the attendant extrapolative ‘thingful’
deities that
bear witness not so much to religion as to the mass reality of female
dominion,
with the sanctity of free soma in metachemical
free
will behind the ‘increase and multiply’ ethos of the Old Testament.
That
is
why
we
want
‘Kingdom
Come’ – not to
establish another false religion, but to do away with falsity in order
that the
Truth may prevail and true religion in consequence, something
inconceivable
outside and anterior to such a heavenly ‘Kingdom’, which must
necessarily be
both superhuman (administrative aside) and supra-human (the
Centre-proper).
IDIOT
The
girl
in
the
house
next
door, a teenager,
never or hardly ever walks; she always runs up and down the stairs,
around her
room, etc., and, rushing in or our, invariably slams the front door. A total idiot? What was it Baudelaire said about the modern
girl?
GOOD
QUESTION
For
anyone
to
prefer
the
authors
of the Bible
to the likes of Baudelaire or Nietzsche or Schopenhauer or Sartre …
well, what
kind of a person is that?
CIRCUMSTANCES
Circumstances
make
one
unpleasant,
mostly
circumstances
beyond
one’s control, like
defective
computers or unruly neighbours or confined spaces or overcrowded
environments
or … bad health.
People
being
made
mentally
and
physically
sick
by computers.
BITCH
Power
is
a
bitch, and
glory also. Or, more
correctly, a superbitch and a bitch
respectively.
THE
POPE
Whatever
the
Pope
and
other
such
high-ranking
ecclesiastics may have to say about moral relativism and so on … is a
Western
(Christian) anachronism in a global age, and it behoves us to do our
(Social
Theocratic) duty in the future and sweep them onto the rubbish heap of
history,
so that we can get rid of moral relativism from a standpoint beyond
both
Western anachronisms (bourgeois and Catholic) and contemporary global
barbarities alike. That is the only way
it can be done, not be attempting to reverse time (to Christian
criteria) or
pretending that televisions and cameras don’t exist or effectively
regarding
people who smelt metal as devils in hell … when one uses or has need of
the
products that emerge from their smelting.
BIBLES
If,
in
the
event
of
a
majority mandate for religious
sovereignty, bibles are going to be incinerated – and thus effectively
returned
to their Maker (as John Cowper Powys might say) – there had better be
stringent
penalties put in place for anyone caught continuing to print them
afterwards. It would have to be made a
crime against the
religiously sovereign, that is, the saved/counter-damned proletariat,
for
anyone to perpetuate biblical anachronisms in the context of ‘Kingdom
Come’. And that goes for all such
anachronisms – Eastern as well as Western.
THE
TYRANNY
OF
THE
COMMON
MAN
The
common
man,
especially
when
British
and
habituated, in consequence, to female dominion on state-hegemonic axial
terms,
is a tyrant of suspicion and incredulity with regard to anyone who has
the
capacity to lead an independent, cultural, creative lifestyle. He tends, when possible, to ‘nose in’ on
whatever you are doing, assuming you’re unfortunate enough to live in
close
proximity to such a person in, say, a bedsit or small flat in rented
accommodation, and, with nothing particular to do himself, he makes it
his
business not only to keep an eye on what you’re doing, but to make
efforts, for
the most part low-key, to dissuade you from doing it and even to
suggest –
though he knows nothing of what you really do and, even if he did,
would be a
poor judge in any case – that it is rubbish or that you are wasting
your time
to be doing it in the first place, etc., etc.
In
short,
the
tyranny
of
the
common man is a
refusal to accept creative or intellectual independence and, for want
of
anything better to do, to discourage one from being different. For if there is one thing that, besides sex,
is virtually sacrosanct to the common man, it is conformity with
society in
general and a refusal, in consequence, to live apart from the common
run.
And
yet,
all
this
is
a
product of misfortune
and social conditioning, not of wisdom or even common sense. The common man ends up taking his
socialization for granted. He wants to
be like everybody else. Thus he is the
antithesis of the philosophical artist or artist philosopher, who
regards the
standards of the Many as a threat to his cultural independence and
ability to
uphold Truth in a world ruled by Beauty and, to a lesser extent,
Strength.
The
common
man
does
nothing
independently
because
he is afraid of the consequences and/or humiliation at not
being able
to make it all ‘work out’. Thus he
adheres to the herd, the flock, the crowd, the audience, the
congregation, the
family, the firm, etc., and only finds his justification or meaning
within
society, especially when it is constituted, as in Britain, on a
state-hegemonic
axial basis, and therefore under the sovereign rule of female values
and the
piling up of somatic units, a rule that conduces not only to an
empirical
disposition but, more vulgarly, to an entrenched nosiness that would
not have
been out of place in the policing of empire.
GENUINE
MUSIC
Music,
if
true
to
itself
and
therefore
genuinely metaphysical, can only be expressive of itself or, more
correctly,
the focus of an impression that is less self-expressive than
self-impressive,
impressing one with its adherence to and reflection of soul (joy), so
that it
becomes a godly vehicle for the reflection of Heaven, impressing one
with its
truth. All else – music employing titles
ostensibly expressing some theme or subject extraneous to itself – is
false,
as, to a greater extent, are songs, which subordinate music to a verbal
narrative, pretty much the way religion, through alternative false
gods, is
subordinated, in the interests of men or women or devils (superwomen),
to
economics or politics or science, as the ethnic case may be.
Music
that
is
not
true
to
itself as an
impression of the Soul is … false, and therefore germane to cultural
falsity –
a populist norm that manifests in economic/pseudo-political
(men/pseudo-women),
political/pseudo-economic (women/pseudo-men), or
scientific/pseudo-religious
(superwomen/pseudo-supermen, or devils/pseudo-gods) cultural ‘bovaryizations’ of music, as in much classical,
pop, and
jazz.
In
traditional
serious
Western
music,
Romanticism
signified
an expressive departure from – and rejection of –
the
classical norms of musical form (true to self) and was avowedly a degeneration from the canons of classical
propriety
symptomatic of aristocratic-cum-bourgeois decadence.
Of
all
artists,
the
musician
is
the one who can
– if he so desires – most approximate to a heavenly (metaphysical)
paradigm
through the manipulation, to a soulful effect, of notes.
By contrast, the painter is a virtual
empiricist, the sculptor a sensualist, and the writer an intellectual. Neither vision, touch, nor
thought can convey feelings to anything like the same extent as
the
application of varied pressures to a musical instrument.
THE
LIMITATIONS
OF
TRANSCENDENTAL
MEDITATION
The
trouble
with
transcendental
meditation
as
a
penultimate form of metaphysics (as consistently argued by me in the
past) is
that, centred on man, it still uses ego or the nearest (‘once-bovaryized’) equivalent to it (super-ego) as its
effective
starting-point for any soulful self-realization that can only transpire
– and
then only intermittently and temporarily – on the recoil from the
out-breath as
a mode of self-preservation vis-à-vis the utilization of the relevant
not-self,
viz. lungs and breath, both of which have less to do with Heaven the
Holy Soul
and God the Father (to speak formerly and in keeping with my habitual
way of
explaining this) than with the Son of God and the Holy Spirit of Heaven.
Therefore
transcendental
meditation
starts
with
the
‘once-bovaryized’ ego of the nearest
human
equivalent of superman (not the comic book character) and ends, only
too
temporarily, with the soul spinal cord deep … before one is obliged to
return
to the starting point and plunge anew (the expression is not meant to
paraphrase John Cowper Powys) into the lungs and breath in the
interests of a
degree of self-transcendence achieved, not in relation to the
aforementioned
not-self, but on the rebound from it, like a ball that is attached to a
rubber
band and recoils from wherever it is launched with a momentum that
takes it
back past its starting point.
Transcendental
meditation
is
somewhat
similar,
and
therefore
no more, as noted above, than a radical mankind approach
(compared with Catholic prayer) to metaphysics that could never be more
than
penultimate in relation not only to what precedes it in nature (sex)
but to
what will hopefully one day succeed it in cyborgkind
(as antithesis to anything cosmic) when once global civilization, which
is
proletarian, comes of sensible age and opts to democratically abandon
its
current film-oriented stage for the benefits of ‘Kingdom Come’ and the
equivalent, in consequence, of a Christian rebirth from outer to inner,
sensuality to sensibility, female hegemonic to male hegemonic, secular
to
religious, through the use of – and with democratically-mandated
religious
sovereignty – entitlement to mind-enhancing drugs that, by and by, will
conduce
towards the development of cyborgization
in relation
to the person, and thus to ‘man’s overcoming’ (to use a Nietzschean
expression) in metaphysical divinity, an eventuality that while germane
to the
male sex would not be relevant to females, whose fate would, as
described
elsewhere, be less metaphysical than pseudo-metachemical,
and
thereby
subject
to
a
different
order of substance entitlement (soma
contracting as opposed to psyche expanding) and correlative approach
(pseudo-objective rather than subjective) to communal cyborgization,
the means whereby both male and pseudo-female supra-human entities
alike may be
more efficaciously and efficiently served from the administrative aside
by a
superhuman, individually cyborged
ideological elite.

of
Class at
the metachemical northwest point of the intercardinal axial compass and the
pseudo-theocratic roots
of pseudo-Race in relation to pseudo-metaphysics from the plutocratic
roots of
Occupation at the physical southeast point of the said compass and the
pseudo-democratic roots of pseudo-Sex in relation to pseudo-chemistry
upon what
is the state-hegemonic/church-subordinate axis.
Contrariwise,

roots
of
Sex at the southwest point of the intercardinal

relation
to pseudo-physics from the theocratic roots of Race at the northeast

relation to
pseudo-metachemistry upon what is the
church-hegemonic/state-subordinate axis.
A
society
ruled
by
the
upper
class will
encourage sexual inter-breeding between the races in the interests of
occupation (capitalism) and the avoidance, so far as possible, of race
(religion), as in Britain.
Britain
and
America
–
secular
democracies
dead
set against religion from a racial premise, the only premise that
really
determines how religion will pan out.
Ireland,
by
contrast,
is
traditionally
a
nation
axially divisible between Sex and Race.
The
British
are
quick
to
‘pounce
on others’
from class-dominated superficiality. The
wilful shallow-pate is the first to take umbrage, especially when
female.
The
Irish,
on
the
other
hand,
are slow to ‘take
umbrage’ from race-dominated profundity.
The soulful ‘deep thinker’ is the last to take umbrage,
especially when
male.
THE
NATURE
OF
DIVERGENCE
Straight
line
emanation,
or
divergence,
from
an
absolute rectilinear entity like a ringful
(vacuous)
square or absolute star will always be symptomatic of superfeminine
domination in metachemical objectivity,
having more
to do with Beauty and Love than with Ugliness and Hatred but still
significant,
in free soma and bound psyche (3:1) of both.
A
society
dominated
by
females
will
be
illustrative of rectilinear divergence, and hence heathenistic
or, in contemporary parlance, secular values.
For the opposite of anything Christian, which is male-orientated
(in
sensibility) can only be that which is female-dominated (in sensuality).
Hence
the
unchristian
nature
of
female
priests
– a degeneration of Christian criteria germane to the
medieval/bourgeois, but
particularly protestant bourgeois, overlap with the secular feminism of
proletarian barbarity and, hence, of the juxtaposition of decadent
Western with
unregenerate barbarous/philistine global civilization, as, in a limited
environmental sense, of suburban with urban.

FROM
WILL
TO
SOUL
VIA
EGO
AND SPIRIT
The
Doing
of
metachemical
Will, which is noumenally objective;
The
Taking
of
physical
Ego,
which
is
phenomenally subjective;
The
Giving
of
chemical
Spirit,
which
is
phenomenally objective;
The
Being of
metaphysical Soul, which is noumenally
subjective.
From
the
Doing
of
metachemical
Will to the Being of metaphysical Soul via the Taking of physical Ego
and the
Giving of chemical Spirit – the absolute Alpha and the absolute Omega
via the
relative omega and alpha.
Hence,
in
another
sense,
from
Hell
to Heaven
via the Earth and Purgatory or, alternatively, from the Devil to God
via Man
and Woman – though this is only an approximation, given the use
(over-simplistic) of parallel terms.
Certainly
the
fulcrum
of
metachemistry
is Will and therefore Doing, the Doing, one might say, of Devil the
Mother
(beauty);
The
fulcrum
of
physics
is
Ego
and therefore
Taking, the Taking of Man the Father (knowledge);
The
fulcrum
of
chemistry
is
Spirit
and
therefore Giving, the Giving of Purgatory the Clear Spirit (pride);
The
fulcrum
of
metaphysics
is
Soul
and
therefore Being, the Being of Heaven the Holy Soul (joy).
Doing
and
Taking
are
the
hegemonic
factors,
corresponding to metachemistry (over
pseudo-metaphysics) and physics (over pseudo-chemistry) on the
state-hegemonic/church-subordinate axis stretching from the northwest
to the
southeast points of the intercardinal
axial compass.
Giving
and
Being
are
the
hegemonic
factors,
corresponding to chemistry (over pseudo-physics) and metaphysics (over
pseudo-metachemistry) on the
church-hegemonic/state-subordinate
axis stretching from southwest to northeast points of the intercardinal
axial compass.
‘Christ
walking
on
the
water’
with
an airy
backdrop is symbolically or metaphorically illustrative of
church-hegemonic/state-subordinate
hegemonic factors, in that to get to metaphysics over pseudo-metachemistry you have to be rooted in chemistry
over
pseudo-physics, with the chemical ‘first’ destined, in the event of
counter-damnation, to become pseudo-metachemical
‘last’ and the pseudo-physical ‘last’, in the event of salvation,
destined to
become metaphysical ‘first’.
The
‘Christ
walking
on
the
water’
metaphor
would have been lost on Protestants, whose religious apostasy put them
at axial
loggerheads with church-hegemonic/state-subordinate criteria and thus
not only
the possibility of understanding such a metaphor but of sensibly or
imaginatively relating to it.
Heresy

spin-off, if not exactly decadent end-product, is the female-dominated

The
Doing
of
Class
as
opposed
to the Being of
Race;
The
Taking
of
Occupation
as
opposed
to
the Giving of Sex.
From
the
state-hegemonic
Doing
of
Class
to the
church-hegemonic Being of Race via the state-hegemonic Taking
of Occupation and the church-hegemonic Giving of Sex.
Class
and
Occupation
are
no
less
axially state
hegemonic than Sex and Race are church hegemonic – with Will and Ego at
axial
loggerheads with Spirit and Soul.
In
fact,
to
recapitulate
one
of
my principal
axial findings, Will and Ego alike correspond to what could, in this
instance,
be called the alpha preceding factor (as fulcrum) of metachemistry
and physics – Beauty preceding Love in metachemical free soma
and Knowledge preceding Pleasure in physical free
psyche, whereas
Spirit and Soul, by contrast, correspond to what, in this instance, I
shall
call the omega preceding factor (as fulcrum) of chemistry and
metaphysics –
Pride preceding Strength in chemical
free soma and Joy preceding Truth in
metaphysical free psyche.
Hence
the
axial
compatibility
of
Will
and Ego,
Beauty and Knowledge, on the one hand, that of state-hegemonic Doing
and
Taking. And hence the
axial compatibility of Spirit and Soul, Pride and Joy, on the other
hand, that
of church-hegemonic Giving and Being.
Taking
has
a
tendency
to
suck-up
to Doing in a
kind of Faustian pact, whereby the somatic licence of the latter is
financed by
the psychic freedom of the former.
Giving
can
only
be
overcome
by
Being, as and
when the pseudo-taking pseudo-physical ‘last’ (under-plane subordinate
in
pseudo-mass under volume at the southwest point of the intercardinal
axial compass) are saved to metaphysics and the giving chemical ‘first’
(over-plane hegemonic in volume over pseudo-mass at the southwest point
of the
said compass) are counter-damned to pseudo-metachemistry,
wherein
the
gender
positions
are
reversed
as the ‘last’ become ‘first’
(over-plane hegemonic in time over pseudo-space at the northeast point
of the intercardinal axial compass) and
the ‘first’ become ‘last’
(under-plane subordinate in pseudo-space under time at the northeast
point of
the said compass), thereby allowing Joy and Truth to metaphysically
flourish as
never before.
MOTHER
AND
FATHER
Whenever
my
mother
discussed
my
father,
whom I
never knew, it was always to put him down and/or slag him off. I never once heard a good thing said about
him. But that only made me more
determined not to make his mistake and get married.
If,
at
the
end
of
my
life, I am still celibate
and single, I would like to think that not having married and had a
family was
my greatest achievement, greater, by far, than all of my literary,
musical, and
other cultural and/or internet-related accomplishments put together.
In
this
world,
it
is
easier
for a man to marry
and have a family than to remain single and celibate.
That is why most men get married.
Not
having
had
the
benefit
of
a father around
when I was a young boy only conduced towards my development of a
jaundiced view
of women, with regard to my mother and chair-ridden grandmother, from
which I
have never recovered. Even now I shiver
when I recollect how useless they were in acknowledging, much less
satisfying, my various wants – physical as
well as mental. I was not only seriously
malnourished and in
generally poor health by the time my mother was free to dispatch me, at
the age
of ten, to a Children’s Home in Carshalton Beeches, Surrey, but
frustrated and
disgusted by their – and my mother’s in particular – inability to play
with me
or show me how things worked or encourage me to do or make certain
things that,
apparently, only a father would have been able to do, like playing ball
with
one in a park or something. I am only
too aware of what a misfortune and social disadvantage it is not having
the
benefit of a father’s presence so that, with only a mother, one
develops a
lopsided perspective on life and family relationships – a psychology
which
predisposes one to see and understand too much of he female side of
life and
little if any of its male side. The fact
that I was an only child (my parents separated too soon to have
another), with
neither brothers nor sisters, only compounded this predicament by
making me
more reliant on my own resources and unable or unwilling to interact
with
others – there being, in any case, no-one else, apart from my arthritic
grandmother and hard-pressed mother, to interact with.
Fundamentally,
I
blame
my
grandmother
for
that
predicament. For it
was she who returned to
But
in
Aldershot
and,
subsequently,
Carshalton
Beeches
I was even more alienated and solitary than I might otherwise
have
been, had I been able to grow up in Ireland, and accordingly more
disposed to
withdrawing into myself and turning my back, as far as possible, on the
world
and its various social demands. In
If
I
have
no
regrets
for
never having married,
it is because I saw no prospect of marriage for someone like myself in
a
country which is not my own (I am of course an Irish citizen) and from
whose
money-grubbing values I generally recoil in horror.
It is not simply that I would not associate
with, much less marry, a Brit. Rather is
it that any arrangement which was likely to lead to propagation would
be
unacceptable to me so long as I was still living in England and living,
moreover, as an Irish-born outsider. Not
only does the prospect of a family have no appeal to me in relation to
the
overcrowded urban environments of north London, including Finsbury
Park, to
which I was obliged to move (though not for the first time) from Surrey
back in
1974, when I stayed for a short time at the flat my mother and then
stepfather
were living in prior to moving to Crouch End and then Hornsey, but it
doesn’t
appeal to me as an Irishman in exile … to be responsible for forcing a
British
upbringing and (state-hegemonic female-dominated) lifestyle upon any
child, or
prospective child, of mine. I couldn’t
do it, and therefore in this and certain other regards I am profoundly
responsible, even though, to the superficial eye, it may not look that
way.
Frankly,
I
have
developed
a
thick
skin over the
years and don’t much care what others (and not just Brits) think. I feel obligated,
in
short, to live alone and to invest in a damage-limitation-exercise that
focuses
the hurt and suffering back upon myself, even at a personal cost. And if, as my mother would often have me
believe, my father was a bad man, was ‘no good’, someone (an Irishman)
she
would never have married had her mother not obliged her to accompany
her back
to Ireland, then I shall at least have the satisfaction of knowing –
quite
apart from my feelings about her – that I have not passed on his genes to anyone else and
that the
buck, as they say, stops here, with me.
My ‘children’ are, and have long been, my books and other
cultural
products, and if there is any special merit in that in a country which
gives no
particular encouragement to serious cultural endeavour and independence
of
mind, then I would be the first to acknowledge it, not forgetting what
I said
earlier about my celibacy and status as a bachelor which, in a society
only too
disposed to piling up somatic units in increasing numbers, is no mean
feat!
OMNIPOTENCE
AND
OMNISCIENCE
Even
now
there
are
idiots
who
identify
omnipotence with God, or godliness (as I prefer to say), as though
something
all-powerful had anything to do with religion-proper (metaphysics) and,
hence,
Heaven (as the joyful condition of metaphysical soul).
Bad enough that they should equate
omniscience with God, as though something all-knowing had anything to
do with
religion. Are not omnipotence and
omniscience
commensurate with metachemistry and
physics respectively, that is, with science
and economics, or Devil
(the Mother) and Man (the Father), as of Power and Form, Will and Ego,
Beauty
and Knowledge. In other words, the
hegemonic elements of the state-hegemonic/church-subordinate axis that
stretches from northwest to southeast points of the intercardinal
axial compass. I would have a moral (and
axial) problem with both….
SOME
PARTING
SHOTS
Society
is
divisible
between
those
who
follow
their own leads and those that copy others.
I
do
not
follow;
I
lead.
Opposition
to
Class
comes
primarily
from
Occupation;
opposition to Sex primarily from Race.
I
have
always
believed
that
not
Class but Sex
(gender) is the underlining dynamic or dialectic of the historical
process. Therefore I have thought
church-hegemonically rather than state-hegemonically, as someone of Roman Catholic West
of Ireland
Gaelic descent who fights shy of the Anglo-dominated state-hegemonic
axis … as
he fights shy of Power and Form from a standpoint centred in Content(ment) and opposing Glory (with its chemical
pride and
strength).
The
danger
with
taking
the
‘bovaryized’
ego (super-ego) too seriously in metaphysics is that it can become
detached
from the Soul to a degree whereby it ceases to serve or reflect Truth
and
becomes merely knowledgeable, sinking to the level of physics and the
‘forbidden tree of knowledge’, were a ‘once-bovaryized’
soul
(pleasure)
is
subordinated
to
the
Ego, which is less philosophical than
philological, and therefore more disposed to the pleasures of theology
than to
the joys of theosophy, the joys that come from being at one with the
Soul.
The
philosopher
of
Truth
will
not
be ‘king’ for
long if he abandons metaphysics for physics and, effectively changing
axis,
descends into the mundane realm of mere knowledge, where not God, much
less
Heaven, but Man is if not exactly ‘king’ then avowedly governor,
disposed to
hyping knowledge as Truth and thus himself as God.
If
the
‘Philosopher
King’
is
to
remain godly,
it will be because he defers to the primacy of the Soul, and thus of
Heaven, in
the construction – always loosely formal – of his philosophy, that
truthful
mirror, so to speak, of the Soul’s inner Being (joy), which is the
kernel of a
messianic credibility.
Let
my
epitaph
be:
he
remained
true to himself
(his self) and fathered no offspring but his cultural creations. He was the creator, above all, of a new
approach to thinking which stemmed, as far as possible, from the Soul,
and was
accordingly truly divine, that is to say, the ‘Word of God’, in its
metaphysical
core. He ‘took note’ of what his soul
revealed to him of its essence, and he calls these notes true … to his
self.
