Beyond Truth and Illusion

The weblog templates and structures that Mr O'Loughlin used in connection with the bulk of this and other recent material tended to encourage titles above and separate from the main text, and therefore he was obliged to revert to an essay-like presentation of ideas that has always seemed to him somewhat regressive when compared, or perhaps one should say contrasted, to the late aphoristic works of his pre-weblog writings. Nevertheless, even if that is the case, he has done his best to ensure that the subject-matter remains as radical and theoretically cogent as before, and we think we can confidently say that the results often transcend what was achieved more aphoristically in the past, so much so, that John O'Loughlin can confidently claim to have reached the goal of his life's endeavour and to be at the top of his philosophical pursuit of truth, a 'top' which is effectively beyond truth and illusion, and thus a cause, we believe, of joyful celebration
