GENUINE AND PSEUDO MODES OF MORALITY, AMORALITY, UNMORALITY, AND IMMORALITY

 

Although I have written recently of distinctions at all points of the intercardinal axial compass between morality, amorality, unmorality and immorality, with morality and unmorality the standard distinctions compared to amoral and immoral departures from above or below, as the gender-specific case may be, I should emphasize that I was generalizing rather than allowing, more categorically, for further distinctions between the genuine forms of morality, amorality, unmorality, and immorality, and their ‘pseudo’ counterparts. For, categorically speaking, such further distinctions indubitably exist, and they do so with regard to the absolute standings of morality and immorality vis-à-vis the relative standings of amorality and unmorality.

 

Now since the intercardinal axial compass is divisible between noumenal and phenomenal positions, corresponding to ethereal and corporeal class distinctions, it should be logically feasible to contend that only in the noumenal positions, whether in terms of the metachemical/pseudo-metaphysical northwest point of the said compass or, contrariwise, in terms of the metaphysical/pseudo-metachemical northeast point of it, will both morality and immorality be genuine, since such positions, being noumenal, are absolute, as, in their opposite ways, are morality and immorality, with a 3:1 ratio of soma to psyche (female) or of psyche to soma (male).

 

The amoral and unmoral positions, by contrast, will be ‘pseudo’, since existing or transpiring within the absolute parameters of the noumenal.  Hence not only will pseudo-metaphysics and pseudo-metachemistry be symptomatic of ‘pseudo’ manifestations of unmorality, but quasi-pseudo-metaphysical departures from metachemistry in the one case, and quasi-pseudo-metachemical departures from metaphysics in the other case will also be symptomatic of the ‘pseudo’ modes of amorality.

 

All this, however, ceases to apply with the southwest and southeast points of the intercardinal axial compass, wherein the phenomenal relativity (2½:1½) of chemistry over pseudo-physics and, across the axial divide, of physics over pseudo-chemistry will present the opposite case to anything noumenal – namely, a fundamental distinction between the ‘pseudo’ standings of morality and immorality vis-à-vis the genuine standings of amorality and unmorality, whether in terms of a 2½:1½ ratio of soma to psyche (female) or of psyche to soma (male).

 

Hence both chemistry and physics exemplify pseudo-morality within the paradoxical standings of their phenomenal relativity, even though amoral departures from either chemistry to pseudo-physics in terms of quasi-pseudo-physics or from physics to pseudo-chemistry in terms of quasi-pseudo-chemistry will be anything but ‘pseudo’ in their accordance with relative criteria.

 

Just so, both pseudo-physical and pseudo-chemical modes of unmorality will be genuine in their relativity, but not the immoral departures from pseudo-physics (or, more correctly, antiphysics) of a quasi-chemical nature or from pseudo-chemistry (more correctly, antichemistry) of a quasi-physical nature, given the absolute requirements of immorality.

 

Thus while the noumenal positions provide logical evidence of a contrast between genuine morality and genuine immorality, whether metachemical/quasi-metachemical or, across the axial divide, metaphysical/quasi-metaphysical, their phenomenal counterparts, being relative, will logically attest to a contrast between pseudo-morality and pseudo-immorality, whether chemical/quasi-chemical or physical/quasi-physical.

 

Conversely, while the phenomenal positions provide logical evidence of a contrast between genuine amorality and genuine unmorality, whether quasi-pseudo-physical/pseudo-physical or, across the axial divide, quasi-pseudo-chemical/pseudo-chemical, their noumenal counterparts, being absolute, will logically attest to a contrast between pseudo-amorality and pseudo-unmorality, whether quasi-pseudo-metaphysical/pseudo-metaphysical or quasi-pseudo-metachemical/pseudo-metachemical.

 

In each class and/or gender context, however, there will be a balance, theoretically speaking, between the genuine and ‘pseudo’ elements, the noumenal exemplifying the genuineness of morality and immorality vis-à-vis the pseudo-ness, so to speak, of amorality and unmorality; the phenomenal, by contrast, exemplifying the genuineness of amorality and unmorality vis-à-vis the pseudo-ness of morality and immorality.

 

In sum, the lower orders, whether chemical/pseudo-physical at the southwest or physical/pseudo-chemical at the southeast points of the intercardinal axial compass, are neither as moral nor as immoral as their upper-order counterparts, while the latter, whether metachemical/pseudo-metaphysical at the northwest or metaphysical/pseudo-metachemical at the northeast points of the said compass, will be neither as amoral nor as unmoral as the lower orders.  For morality and immorality, when genuine, are absolute (3:1), whereas both amorality and unmorality, to be genuine, can only be relative (2½:1½).

 

Everything exists or has the capacity to exist everywhere, but not in the same terms or to a similar extent.  The persistence of morality, amorality, unmorality, and immorality at all points of the intercardinal axial compass will continue to reflect opposing approaches to the genuine and the ‘pseudo’ even if, ultimately, it can only be a point of philosophical principle approximating to divine judgement that metaphysics/pseudo-metachemistry should triumph over everything else, and that genuine godly/heavenly morality should avoid any pseudo-amoral departure from itself (in quasi-pseudo-metachemical terms) in order to keep the pseudo-unmorality, corresponding to the pseudo-devilish/pseudo-hellish nature of pseudo-metachemistry, in its gender-subordinate place, the better to avoid the probability of an immoral quasi-metaphysical backlash from pseudo-metachemistry (or, more correctly, from antimetachemistry, its anti-diabolic starting point) that would be extremely bad for metaphysics proper, a context, be it not forgotten, with a 3:1 ratio (noumenal) of free psyche (in truth and joy) to bound soma (in illusion or woe) that could only suffer, possibly fatally, from a 3:1 ratio of bound soma (quasi-illusion and quasi-woe) to free psyche (quasi-truth and quasi-joy) coming up, via antimetachemistry, from the pseudo-metachemical ‘below’, where, a plane down at the northeast point of our intercardinal axial compass, the pseudo-female absolutism of 3:1 bound soma to free psyche would normally or habitually take the form of pseudo-ugliness and pseudo-hatred to pseudo-beauty and pseudo-love – something pseudo-diabolically acceptable from a truly divine standpoint in metaphysics.

 

So as long as pseudo-metachemistry is not encouraged (pseudo-amorally) to depart from itself in the aforementioned immoral manner, all will be well for metaphysics, the proverbial St George with his foot firmly planted on the neutralized dragon … of noumenal pseudo-femaleness, the pseudo-lion that not so much lies down with as under the heel of the genuine lamb, the lamb of God whose moral raison d’être, in truth, is the joy of heavenly peace in total self-unity.
