The entire text of which can be accessed via the remarks below:–

Continuing on from Radical Progress (2003), this volume of aphoristic philosophy is not only more comprehensively exacting than the previous one – and indeed all the earlier works of my not-inconsiderable oeuvre – in relation to the various ideological permutations of both state and church, politics and religion, but more logically insightful of the diametrically opposite ways in which what has been termed 'world overcoming' operates, whether from a secular or an ecclesiastic standpoint, to the end of maintaining either the alpha ideal of somatic freedom from the standpoint of a female hegemony or the omega ideal of psychic freedom from the standpoint of a male hegemony, neither of which kinds of ideal, respectively criminal or, more correctly, evil and graceful, are or ever can be compatible, and therefore necessitate and invariably result in contrary types of society which, for obvious reasons, rarely if ever 'see eye to eye', but remain at gender loggerheads with each other for as long as 'the world' persists. However, ‘the 'world' as defined in Stairway to Judgement is no simple monolith where the People are concerned, but is divisible, on the above-mentioned basis, between those who take ‘the earth’ for granted in what I have described as a democratic/plutocratic type of worldly bias and those, on the contrary, who live in hope of salvation from ‘the world’ in what has been called a bureaucratic/meritocratic type of worldly bias which, scorning ‘the earth’, is avowedly anti-earthly in character and the precondition, through sin, of heavenly grace. Therefore, split asunder between two types of worldly society, the People, the Meek, the Electorate, the Many, etc., cannot be evaluated according to any one set of criteria, but have to be differentiated on the basis of whether they appertain to the one manifestation of 'the world' or to the other, with contrary fates in both state and church, as described in this, my most ideologically conclusive text to-date. – John O’Loughlin.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

John O’Loughlin was born in Salthill, Galway, the Republic of Ireland, of mixed Irish- and British-born parents in 1952. Following a parental split he was brought to England by his mother and grandmother (who had initially returned to Ireland with her daughter upon the death of her Aldershot-based husband) in the mid-50s and attended infant/junior schools in Aldershot, Hampshire and, with an enforced change of denomination from Catholic to Protestant in consequence of having been placed in care by his mother upon the death and repatriation of his ethnically-protective grandmother, Carshalton, Surrey. Leaving high school in pre-GCSE era 1970 with an assortment of CSEs (Certificate of Secondary Education) and GCEs (General Certificate of Education), including history and music, he moved to London and went on, via two short-lived jobs, to work at the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music in Bedford Square, where he eventually became responsible for booking ABRSM examination venues throughout Britain and Ireland. After a brief flirtation with further education at Redhill Technical College back in Surrey, where he had enrolled to do English and History A Levels, he returned to his former job in the West End but, due to a combination of factors, left the Associated Board in 1976 and began to pursue a literary vocation which, despite a brief spell as a computer and office-skills tutor at Hornsey YMCA in the late '80s and early '90s, during which time he added some NVQs to his other qualifications, he has steadfastly continued with ever since. His novels include Changing Worlds (1976), An Interview Reviewed (1979), Secret Exchanges (1980), Sublimated Relations (1981), and Deceptive Motives (1981). Since the mid-80s John O'Loughlin has dedicated himself to philosophy, which he regards as his true literary vocation, and hss penned numerous titles of a philosophical nature, including Devil and God (1985–6), Towards the Supernoumenon (1987), Elemental Spectra (19885&ndash9), Philosophical Truth (19915&ndash2) and, more recently, The Best of All Possible Worlds (2008), The Centre of Truth (2009), Insane but not Mad (2011) and Philosophic Flights of Poetic Fancy (2012).
