As I use them, Thesis is the First Reality and/or God’s
unfolding of the creation story from beginning to end. The Antithesis is of course, not merely the opposite, but the inversion and destruction of the former through the destructive effects of malignant narcissism, or diabolical envy, whose political manifestation is communism.
The ideas we are trying to find words for were magnificently depicted by JRR Tolkien, who understood that such things were best told through fantasy. Thus the Antithesis is Sauron’s blasted Hell,whose evil denizens-—all of them twisted and distorted into sameness—were relentlessly spied upon by the never-sleeping burning eye of envy.
I totally agree, spirited irish! This operation is clearly satanic in its motivation and goals....
We can thank the German transcendental idealist philosopher Hegel for the terminology, "thesisantithesis." Whose purpose evidently was to destroy the fundaments of reason altogether which is the sort of thing that Satan favors and aims to accomplish in the world of men....
According to the logic of Hegel's system, man is reduced to a total abstraction: to the status of a disembodied thinker bound to the conventional rules of a deracinated "either/or" logic.
Hegel's "genius" was to suggest that the "either" and the "or" were both finally just human fabrications anyway, and thus of little intrinsic value.
Thus on his theory evidently it follows that, if meaningless thesis and meaningless antithesis were to be fused, or "synthesized" in a final (yet ever-moving) outcome, that would be preferable to either of them meaninglessly functioning alone. Somehow, the amalgamation of the two meaninglessnesses magically "creates" meaning, thus to set "Truthful" human knowledge on "the good foot," going forward, forever more....
The man was certifiably insane, IMHO. As was Nietzsche, his contemporary. (Nietzsche actually was certified insane at the time of his death, due to complications of syphylis. But evidently, Hegel escaped a similar finding....)
I think both these guys should have been locked up in a rubber "white room," in physical restraints if necessary; so as not to do any further harm to themselves or to anybody else. Heavy doses of Thorazine may be required....
LOLOL!!! But I do have reason to believe that Hegel was one of the greatest "black magicians," or sorcerers, of all time! And I think I can back it up, if anyone's interested.
Thanks dear spirited irish for yet another wonderful essay/post!
