Post-Atomic Perspectives - John O'Loughlin - Bog

Combining maxims and aphorisms with essays and dialogues, this work goes beyond the scope of John O'Loughlin's previous philosophical projects, including 'Future Transformations' (1982), in both its form and content, opening out towards a post-atomic future in what amounts to an entirely new civilization. Subjects include the direction of literature in the civilization to come; the transitional nature of contemporary literature; revelations concerning future life-forms and their relationship to what is called the Ultimate Creation; the nature of divine love in relation to other types of love and its bearing on Messianic credibility; antithetical equivalents - such as birds and planes or horses and motorbikes - in the evolution of human and other life; how the State 'withers' and why; the paradoxical allegiance of Christian pagans, or so-called Christians whose loyalty is rather more to the Creator than to Christ; and transcendental transvaluations in a world that has largely turned its back on nature. - A Centretruths editorial
