PHILOSOPHICAL BEING
1. The being of genuine philosophers - as of
genuine philosophy - is the soul of being, viz. joy, in what can only be a
concern, through transcendentalism, with metaphysics.
2. Every lesser being, be it physical, chemical,
or metachemical, is not the being of authentic philosophy
but, on the contrary, the being of a philosophy that stands at one, two, or
three 'bovaryized' removes from such (metaphysical)
authenticity.
3. The joyful being of
authentic philosophy can only be conceived of in relation to aphorisms, not in
relation to essays, dialogues, or verses.
4. By comparison, essayistic philosophy is
better suited, in its quasi-narrative bias, to the pleasurable being of a
physical shortfall, through humanism, from metaphysics, in what amounts to a
'once-bovaryized' order of pseudo-philosophy.
5. By relative
contrast, dialogues are more suited, in their quasi-dramatic bias, to the proud
being of a chemical shortfall, through nonconformism,
from metaphysics, in what amounts to a 'twice-bovaryized'
order of pseudo-philosophy.
6. By absolutist
contrast, verses are more suited, in their quasi-poetic bias, to the loving
being of a metachemical shortfall, through
fundamentalism, from metaphysics, in what amounts to a 'thrice-bovaryized' order of pseudo-philosophy.
7. Hence whereas philosophy is only genuine in
the aphoristic mode of joyful being, it is regressively more pseudo in relation
to the essayistic mode of pleasurable being, the dialogistic mode of proud
being, and the linguistic mode, so to speak, of loving being.
8. Instead of a transcendentalist authenticity
in relation to the being-of-beings, philosophy that is 'bovaryized'
in physical, chemical, or metachemical shortfalls
from metaphysics ... signifies a humanist, a nonconformist, or a fundamentalist
inauthenticity in relation to such being.
9. Such pseudo-philosophies are not the work of
gods aspiring towards Heaven, of truth seeking joyful redemption, but either
the work of men, women, or devils, for whom being is accordingly pleasurable,
proud, or loving, as the case may be.
10. But pleasurable being is second-rate, proud
being third-rate, and loving being fourth-rate by comparison with (pleasurable)
or in contrast to (proud and loving) the first-rate being of joy in the
soul-of-souls, the soul of being which the genuine philosopher, the aphoristic
metaphysician, will advocate and, more importantly, experience in consequence
of fidelity to metaphysical procedures.
11. Inferior philosophers will never approach
being on anything but an inauthentic basis ... through essayistic pleasure,
dialogistic pride, or linguistic love, and their philosophy will always be a
reflection of humanist, nonconformist, or fundamentalist limitations vis-à-vis
the transcendentalism of genuine philosophy.
12. Pseudo-philosophy will always be upheld by
societies in which either humanism, and hence narrative fiction, nonconformism, and hence drama, or fundamentalism, and
hence poetry, is the prevailing literary genre - and upheld to the exclusion,
it may well be, of genuine philosophy, which requires a transcendentalist, and
therefore metaphysical, bias whether in the individual or, more generally, in
society as a whole.
13. Unless society is preponderantly
transcendentalist in its orientation towards metaphysical individuals, the
philosopher will not be 'king' but ever tangential, on a 'bovaryized'
basis, to the prevailing literary mean, be it fictional, dramatic, or poetic,
according to whether society is preponderantly and/or predominantly constituted
in relation to physical, chemical, or to metachemical
norms.
14. As a genuine, or aphoristic, philosopher, I
esteem that society in which the metaphysical individual is especially
sovereign, and philosophy is accordingly the principal literary genre, with 'bovaryized' manifestations, necessarily deferential towards
it in their metaphysical bias, of fiction, drama, and poetry.
15. Only then will justice be done to the soul of
being, the being-of-beings, or supreme being, of that heavenly joy which is the
redemption of godly truth and the justification behind all genuine philosophy -
the most genuine philosophy of the 'philosopher king' not least of all!
16. Such philosophy can only be fully and properly
aired in 'Kingdom Come', the 'Kingdom' not only of a projected union of
Ireland, Scotland, and Wales in a Gaelic Federation, as democratically
advocated by me, but also, and no less importantly, of the soul, in which the
metaphysical soul will receive its due recognition as the soul-of-souls and
ultimate manifestation of being especially reserved for those adjudged capable,
as supermen, of experiencing it, which is to say, of availing of metaphysical
enlightenment on the top tier of my projected triadic Beyond, wherein
respiratory sensibility will be the prevailing norm - a norm no less meritocratic than aural sensuality, the submasculine
metaphysics from which supermen, or potential supermen, require to be saved,
was (and still is) theocratic.
17. For a metaphysical being that was less than
sensible would not 'cut it' with the 'reborn' context of 'Kingdom Come',
wherein philosophy can only be meritocratically
independent of theocracy, and thus of anything rooted, via Biblical verse, in
the theistic concept of God as Creator, Father, etc.
18. Ultimate metaphysical being is not only sensibly
supreme as opposed to sensually supreme, it is Superchristian
as opposed to Subchristian, and therefore aligned
with a metaphysical 'kingdom within'.
19. And it is this metaphysical 'kingdom within',
this ultimate order of 'rebirth', that is fully commensurate with 'Kingdom
Come', and thus the supersession not only of Subchristianity, with its theocratic paternalism, but of
Christianity and its correlative plutocratic estimation of society.
20. For so long as society continues to be
conditioned by economics, religion will get a raw deal in terms of being 'sold
short' of its true worth in a context that not merely overhauls economics in
sensually metaphysical terms, but overhauls economics in sensibly metaphysical
terms, such that subordinates, once and for all, fiction to philosophy, as
philosophy is understood to depart theocratic sensuality for meritocratic sensibility, and being finally comes to rest
in the metaphysical 'rebirth' of 'Kingdom Come', wherein the ultimate
sensibility of a Superchristian dispensation is
'king' for ever more, thanks to the Messianic leadership of one who considers
himself, not without compelling logical justification, as the best and most
credible equivalent of a Second Coming there has ever been or is ever likely to
be!
