The true philosopher kings are those who remain faithful to the Y of their XY chromosomal integrity through thick and thin, remaining metaphysically aloof from the world at the northeast point of the intercardinal axial compass when lesser males than themselves have either fallen into antimetaphysics under metachemical pressure and become artists kowtowing to beauty or, as is more often the case, fallen all the way from antimetaphysics to antiphysics in consequence of the female achieving a maternal resolution of beauty in strength and of love in pride, wherein the hegemonic sway of chemistry over antiphysics is assured.
From this worldly position, ever the source of worshipful nostalgia on the part of males (become antimales) for the lost Y of youthful idealism, there is no way back to metaphysics - as there sometimes is for their antimetaphysical counterparts above - except via salvation, or deliverance from the antiphysical upended-gender plight to which they are subjected by chemical females by those who have either remained metaphysical (the philosopher kings) or returned to metaphysics from antimetaphysics (the repentant artists).
For the antiphysical 'male' is not merely divided against his self on an X/Y basis but, as an accomplice in female resolution, has sacrificed his Y chromosome to the XX-chromosomal pressures brought to bear on him by both beauty and strength, in consequence of which his acquiescence in maternal resolution is akin to an XX-X situation without hope, barring faith, of Y-chromosomal redemption, which is fidelity to self conceived, as is proper with males, psychically.
With faith, however, matters can be otherwise; but it will require an ability, quite unprecedented in religion, not least where Catholicism is concerned, of the metaphysical to save such antimales (from their subordinate worldly plight) and this, in turn, will require the correlative counter-damnation of the chemical to antimetachemistry by those who, in relation to the godly/heavenly, could be described as antidevilish/antihellish, either of which manifestations of antimetachemistry could have been already in situ under the metaphysical ... as unbeautiful females of a higher stamp or, alternatively, brought down to antimetachemistry from metachemistry in consequence of the return of disillusioned antimetaphysical 'males' (antimales) to metaphysics, as noted above.
Whatever the case, only the combination of metaphysical and antimetachemical agents will suffice to deliver, on contrary rising and counter-falling terms, the antiphysical and chemical from their respective worldly standings, and less for their own sake than in the interests of divine and antidiabolic vengeance upon the diabolic and antidivine powers at the northwest point of the intercardinal axial compass who, in defiance of godliness and antidevilishness, would otherwise continue to prevail over them through the exemplification of somatic license netherworld and anti-otherworld without metachemical and antimetaphysical end, keeping that which is genuinely divine and antidiabolic out of the equation while they continue to give themselves inflated airs to the detriment of truth and an end, more pertinently, to evil and pseudo-folly, the evil of metachemical somatic license and the pseudo-folly of its antimetaphysical equivalent, both of which manifestations of the Few will be comparatively more numerous than their metaphysical and antimetachemical counterparts and, in a very genuine sense, axial antitheses.
For, when other factors have been taken into account, there will always be more worshippers of beauty (artists) than practitioners of truth (philosophers), not least among those for whom, errroneously, beauty is truth and truth beauty!

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.
