Jesus is reported to have said: 'Blessed are the meek'. But the meek,
conceived in relation to the weak and ignorant at the foot of the diagonally
rising axis that culminates in some degree of beauty and truth, are really
anti-blessed; for they exist in a negative relationship to the metaphysically
and antimetachemically elect, whom we may call, without equivocation, the
blessed.
2.
For just as I maintained, in my previous text, a distinction between the
anti-peace sinful and pseudo-criminal within phenomenal sensuality and the
pro-peace graceful and pseudo-punishing within noumenal sensibility, salvation
being conceived as deliverance, if as a rule temporary
and intermittent, from the one to the other, so we may distinguish, on a like
basis, between the anti-blessed and the pro-blessed, conceiving of the former
in relation to bound psyche and the latter in relation to free psyche, whether,
according with gender, on primary or secondary terms.
3.
For we have established, beyond any question of a doubt, that the diagonally
rising axis from phenomenal sensuality to noumenal sensibility, from sin and
pseudo-crime to grace and pseudo-punishment, only exists because of the
antiphysical subversion of the nominal chemical hegemony of feminine females
over antimasculine males at the behest of the metaphysical hegemony of divine
males over their antidiabolic female counterparts in antimetachemistry, so that
while the lower-class context of phenomenal sensuality bears witness to the
conditioning of males towards free soma and bound psyche in response to the
female hegemony (females being by definition creatures for whom soma both
precedes and predominates over psyche), the emphasis on psyche at the expense
of soma paradoxically follows from the overall hegemonic influence of divine
males in metaphysics on their lower-class male counterparts, who are able to
subvert the feminine female position accordingly, thereby ensuring that not
free soma but bound psyche becomes the principal characteristic of phenomenal
sensuality, as in respect of sin for the antiphysical context and of pseudo-crime
for the chemical context.
4.
For the male gender actuality of psyche both preceding and predominating over
soma ensures that a psychic emphasis in phenomenal sensuality will follow from
the free existence, in noumenal sensibility, specifically with regard to
metaphysics, of psyche in consequence of a divine male hegemony over the
antidiabolic female context of antimetachemistry.
5.
Therefore a bound-psychic precondition, in both sin and pseudo-crime, of
graceful and pseudo-punishing free psyche is demonstrably germane to a
church-hegemonic context in which metaphysics is free to condition the
antiphysical subversion of chemistry at antimetachemistry's expense, and the
result, logically enough, is a distinction, according with gender, between
two types of peace, blessedness, morality, righteousness, which can be defined
in terms of anti-peace vis-à-vis pro-peace, anti-blessedness vis-à-vis
pro-blessedness, negative, or vicious, morality vis-à-vis positive, or
virtuous, morality, and so on, in this distinction between bound psyche and
free psyche, anti-self and pro-self, which distinguishes the phenomenally
sensual sinful and pseudo-criminal from the noumenally sensible graceful and
pseudo-punishing.
6.
Therefore although antimasculine ignorance and feminine weakness are not
exactly blessed, any more, in truth, than are the meek, they are far from
cursed, being, to all intents and purposes, anti-blessed, since given, in the
bound psyche of anti-self, to sin and pseudo-crime, coupled, in subordinate
free soma, to folly and pseudo-evil, this latter actually having to do with
weakness rather than, in bound psyche, with a weak approach to ignorance, which
would be the chemical, or secondary, mode of bound psyche as opposed to its
antiphysical, or primary, counterpart.
7.
Be that as it may, the psychic emphasis of a church-hegemonic society has less
to do with cursedness than with contrary approaches to blessedness, the exact
opposite of the somatic emphasis which tends to characterize state-hegemonic
societies, and which follows from an overall female domination of society upon
what, in previous texts, has been described as a diagonally descending axis,
descending, that is, from noumenal sensuality to phenomenal sensibility, as
from evil and pseudo-folly to good and pseudo-wisdom.
8.
For just as in an earlier text I have previously insisted upon a distinction
between the pro-war evil and pseudo-foolish within noumenal sensuality and the
anti-war good and pseudo-wise within phenomenal sensibility, damnation being
conceived as a descent, whether temporary and intermittent or otherwise, from
the one context to the other, so we may distinguish, on a like basis, between
the pro-cursed and the anti-cursed, conceiving of the former in relation to free
soma and the latter in relation to bound soma, whether, according with
gender, on primary or secondary terms.
9.
For we have established, beyond any question of a doubt, that the diagonally falling
axis from noumenal sensuality to phenomenal sensibility, from evil and
pseudo-folly to good and pseudo-wisdom, only exists because of the antichemical
subversion of the nominal physical hegemony of masculine males over
antifeminine females at the behest of the metachemical hegemony of diabolic
females over their antidivine male counterparts in antimetaphysics, so
that while the lower-class context of phenomenal sensibility bears witness to
the conditioning of females towards free psyche and bound soma in response to
the male hegemony (males being by definition creatures for whom psyche both
precedes and predominates over soma), the emphasis on soma at the expense of
psyche paradoxically follows from the overall hegemonic influence of diabolic
females in metachemistry on their lower-class female counterparts, who are able
to subvert the masculine male position accordingly, thereby ensuring that not
free psyche but bound soma becomes the principal characteristic of phenomenal
sensibility, as in respect of goodness (somatic modesty, or binding) for the
antichemical context and of pseudo-wisdom for the physical context.
10.
For the female gender actuality of soma both preceding and predominating over
psyche ensures that a somatic emphasis in phenomenal sensibility will follow
from the free existence, in noumenal sensuality, specifically with regard to
metachemistry, of soma in consequence of a diabolic female hegemony over the
antidivine male context of antimetaphysics.
11.
Therefore a free-somatic precondition, in both evil and pseudo-folly, of good
and pseudo-wise bound soma is demonstrably germane to a state-hegemonic context
in which metachemistry is free to condition the antichemical subversion of
physics at the expense of antimetaphysics, and the result, logically enough, is
a distinction, according to gender, between two types of war, cursedness,
immorality, unrighteousness, which can be defined in terms of pro-war vis-à-vis
anti-war, pro-cursedness vis-à-vis anti-cursedness, positive, or vicious,
immorality vis-à-vis negative, or virtuous, immorality, and so on, in this
distinction between free soma and bound soma, pro-notself and anti-notself,
which distinguishes the noumenally sensual evil and pseudo-foolish from the
phenomenally sensible good and pseudo-wise.
12.
Therefore although antifeminine strength and masculine knowledge are not
exactly cursed, any more, in truth, than are the just, they are far from
blessed, being, to all intents and purposes, anti-cursed, since given, in the
bound soma of anti-notself, to goodness and pseudo-wisdom, coupled, in
subordinate free psyche, to punishment and pseudo-grace, this latter actually
having to do with knowledge rather than, in bound soma, with a knowledgeable
approach to strength, which would be the physical, or secondary, mode of bound
soma as opposed to its antichemical, or primary, counterpart.
13.
Nothing could be more dissimilar, therefore, than the blessedness, both 'anti'
and 'pro', of the diagonally rising axis of church-hegemonic criteria and the
cursedness, both 'pro' and 'anti', of the diagonally falling axis of
state-hegemonic criteria, the former axis progressively ascending, under an
upper-class male lead, from the sin and pseudo-crime of phenomenal sensuality
to the grace and pseudo-punishment of noumenal sensibility, the latter axis
regressively descending, under an upper-class female rule, from the evil and
pseudo-folly of noumenal sensuality to the good and pseudo-wisdom of phenomenal
sensibility.
14.
Just as the ascending axis offers salvation from vicious morality to virtuous
morality, the anti-blessedness of bound psyche to the pro-blessedness of free
psyche, as from the ordeal, from a male standpoint, of the one to the ideal,
likewise, of the other, so the descending axis suffers only damnation from
vicious immorality to virtuous immorality, the pro-cursedness of free soma to
the anti-cursedness of bound soma, as from the ideal, from a female standpoint,
of the one to the ordeal, likewise, of the other.
15.
Life, whatever one may say or believe about it, has to be qualified in relation
to gender; for the one gender only prevails at the other gender's expense, and
criteria applicable to the prevailing gender are demonstrably not applicable to
the subordinate gender, even though an apparent or seeming complementarity
between the two genders can be - and more usually is - established in the
interests of societal stability, whether on the basis of somatic freedom where
civilization is at its worst or, conversely, on the basis of psychic freedom
where civilization is at its best and therefore less a matter of barbarity and
pseudo-philistinism vis-à-vis civility and pseudo-culture on the descending
axis than of philistinism and pseudo-barbarity vis-à-vis culture and
pseudo-civility on the ascending one, the axis in which not female primacy but
male supremacy obtains in relation, not least, to church-hegemonic criteria.
16.
Let us examine these two axes in greater detail, bearing in mind that we do not
simply have an ascent from, say, the earth to Heaven in the one case and a
descent, by contrast, from Hell to purgatory in the other, as might at first
seem to be the case, but, rather, an ascent from what may be called anti-earth
and purgatory to Heaven and Antihell on the ascending axis and a descent from
Hell and Antiheaven to antipurgatory and earth on the descending axis, which
could also be described, more in relation to ego and will than to spirit and
soul, as an ascent from antiman and woman to God and the Antidevil on the ascending
axis and a descent from the Devil and Antigod to antiwoman and man on the
descending axis, the axis not of church-hegemonic but of state-hegemonic
criteria.
17.
Therefore antiphysics and chemistry are as much a precondition of metaphysics
and antimetachemistry on the righteous axis of church-hegemonic criteria, the
axis upon which things rise from bound to free psyche, as metachemistry and
antimetaphysics are a precondition of antichemistry and physics on the
unrighteous axis of state-hegemonic criteria, the axis upon which things fall
from free to bound soma.
18.
And, as the reader may have divined by now, that which diagonally rises does so
from anti-self to pro-self, anti-peace to pro-peace, anti-blessedness to
pro-blessedness, anti-light to pro-light, anti-right to pro-right, as from the
vicious morality of sin and pseudo-crime to the virtuous morality of grace and
pseudo-punishment, whereas that which diagonally falls does so from pro-notself
to anti-notself, pro-war to anti-war, pro-cursedness to anti-cursedness,
pro-darkness to anti-darkness, pro-wrong to anti-wrong, as from vicious
immorality to virtuous immorality.
19.
In the past I have described these contrary fates as attesting to either a
progression or a regression, according to axis, from conservatism to
radicalism, as though one progressed, on the ascending axis, from psychic
conservatism to psychic radicalism, bound psyche to free psyche, and regressed,
on the descending axis, from somatic conservatism to somatic radicalism, free soma
to bound soma, and whilst I am still confident that the description of the
former fate is profoundly correct, I have to question my presumption of
correctness in respect of the latter, where it now seems to me that a descent
from free soma to bound soma would be more in the order of a regression from
somatic radicalism to somatic conservatism, so that, far from the sensual
positions being conservative and the sensible ones radical, it can be
maintained that freedom is always radical and binding conservative, and that
the progression from psychic conservatism to psychic radicalism on the
ascending axis has to be juxtaposed with a regression from somatic radicalism
to somatic conservatism on the descending axis, in consequence of which there
is a marked contrast between salvation from conservatism to radicalism on the
one hand, and damnation from radicalism to conservatism on the other hand.
20. For how can one not argue that freedom, whether
somatic or psychic, is radical and binding, whether psychic or somatic,
conservative? That the controlling Few, whether evil or graceful, are
alone radical and the controlled Many, whether meek or just, conservative, with
the conservatism, it could be said, of a flock or sheep which must be made
subject either to the barbarous predations or the cultural guidance of free
radicals of radically contrary persuasions?
21.
Hence conservatism, applying in the main to the bound Many, implies a certain
restrictiveness of thought or action which easily lends itself to equation with
a certain mediocrity, in contrast to that radicalism which, applying in the
main to the free Few, implies a certain unrestrictiveness of action and thought
which suggests an exceptional if not distinguished disposition.
22.
Be that as it may, the sense of ascent from a vicious type of conservatism in
the antiphysical/chemical Many towards a virtuous type of radicalism in the
metaphysical/antimetachemical Few should be contrasted, on an axial basis, with
the sense of descent from a vicious type of radicalism in the
metachemical/antimetaphysical Few towards a virtuous type of conservatism in
the antichemical/physical Many, as things ascend, in the one instance, from the
bound psyche of sin and pseudo-crime to the free psyche of grace and
pseudo-punishment, which is salvation on primary and secondary, male and
female, terms, and descend, in the other instance, from the free soma of evil
and pseudo-folly to the bound soma of good and pseudo-wisdom, which is
damnation on primary and secondary, female and male, terms.
23.
And yet hope of salvation from vicious morality to virtuous morality, bound
psyche to free psyche, must be contrasted with fear of damnation from vicious
immorality to virtuous immorality, free soma to bound soma, as the Many of the ascending
axis live in hope of a better deal 'on high', should they be brought to
otherworldly justice (judgement) in consequence of what they say or confess
being made subject to a graceful response to sin and a wise response to folly,
not to mention, in secondary terms, to a pseudo-punishing response to
pseudo-crime and a pseudo-good response to pseudo-evil, and, by contrast, the
Few of the descending axis live in fear of a worse deal 'down below', should
they be brought to worldly justice in consequence of what they do or profess
being made subject to a good response to evil and a punishing response to
crime, not to mention, in secondary terms, to a pseudo-wise response to
pseudo-folly and a pseudo-graceful response to pseudo-sin.
24.
Hence there is a certain expectation of radicalism by the conservative Many of
the ascending axis, and a certain rejection of conservatism by the radical Few
of the descending axis, the terms of each axis being so contradictory as to be
fairly antithetical and subject to completely different sets of criteria.
25.
Even the progressive struggle between the conservative Many and the radical Few
for salvation from the vicious world to the virtuous otherworldly overworld has
to be contrasted with the regressive struggle between the radical Few and the
conservative Many for damnation from the vicious netherworldly overworld to the
virtuous world, each 'overworld' being as mutually antithetical as their
worldly, or 'underworldly', counterparts.
