Although I have a number of sites for weblogs, most of my current writing tends to revolve around philosophy or, at least, my philosophical ideas and ideals, which have developed over several decades.

Frankly, I don't much like the term 'philosophy', because it suggests a knowledge-oriented shortfall from the sort of Truth-oriented material I normally write and should therefore be taken provisionally, as a concession to common usage rather than as an accurate definition for my type of writing. If one were to be pedantic about it, I suspect that philological knowledge vis-a-vis philosophical pleasure would suffice for a kind of ego/soul distinction in physics, or the vegetative realm of Man, as of manliness, whereas theological truth vis-a-vis theosophical joy would suffice for a kind of ego/soul distinction in metaphysics, or the airy realm of God, as of godliness, which shares, in common with Man, a male integrity and capacity, in consequence, for that subjectivity which is the fruit of a psychic plenum.

Therefore, since most of my mature writings happen to be metaphysical, a better definition of them would be theological/theosophical, with but a smattering of philology/philosophy, as and when I stoop to something physical and merely humanistic. Most of the time, thank God, I am transcendentalistic, and therefore anything but earthy, in contrast, it could be said, to Nietzsche!

Indeed, I am as far removed from the physical/philosophical reductionism of Nietzsche, Locke and other such patently phenomenal philosophers as anyone on two legs ever could be. I know what God, or godliness, is because I am able to scale the metaphysical heights and do justice to truth and joy, God and Heaven, or, in other words, theological ego and theosophical soul, the ego whose godly knowledge is truthful and the soul whose heavenly pleasure is joyful and, hence, germane to soul per se . And soul per se is the sole raison d'etre of godliness, as of God.

This and other weblogs, duly revised and reformatted by the author, can be downloaded in e-book form via LITERATURE AND THE INTERCARDINAL AXIAL COMPASS


John O'Loughlin is a self-taught philosopher who has been writing mostly works of a philosophical nature for over three decades.  Besides publishing himself through his company Centretruths Digital Media, he has been published by Lulu on the Internet, and considers himself to be the founder of the ideological philosophy of Social Theocracy and/or Social Transcendentalism, the former term having more political and the latter more religious significance, as though a distinction between state and church.  Both, however, appertain to what he terms 'the Centre', a concept which transcends state/church relativity as we generally understand it.  His works explain and justify Social Transcendentalism in relation to the concept of religious sovereignty, which he regards as the ultimate mode of sovereignty.  Mr O'Loughlin is 56 and lives alone in north London.
