John O'Loughlin's so-called BOOK OF BELIEFS, cryptically subtitled 'The Omegala', is a record of where his head was at in 1996 or thereabouts, and is therefore anything but a definitive account of his intellectual progress towards a kind of consummate metaphysical truth. Nevertheless, it is still pretty evolved, and one of its best aspects, in our retrospective view, is the way in which it takes space, time, mass, and volume (the latter two factors already more than most philosophers know or care anything about) and establishes a continuum between space and time on the one hand, and volume and mass on the other, in such fashion that things either axially rise or fall between opposite types of space, time, volume, and mass. Check it out for yourself, and go beyond the conventional wisdom of academics and all those who, for whatever reason, put learning from others above thinking for themselves.
