Submetaphysics in Application — Here we take the foundational principles developed in the main essays and apply them to diverse arenas of thought and practice—cognition, language, art, governance, economics, theology, and more—showing how the same ontological ground and moral architecture illuminate each field.
The sequence of appendix designations reflects ad hoc additions rather than a predetermined structure.
Foundational Appendices | Notes | |
A | The Ontological Relationship Between the Father and the Son and the Status of the Holy Spirit | Ontology |
A01 | The Axiom of Relational‑Constraining Exegesis (ARCE) Sequel to Appendix A: Relational Ontology Formalises the interpretive rule that Scripture’s apparent tensions are resolved by reading from top-down—the Father, then the begotten Son, then the Spirit—grounded in the ontological hierarchy outlined in Appendix A |
|
A02 | Liberty of Conscience: The Ontological Ground of Moral Agency | |
B | Formal Logic Appendix | |
D01 | Calibrating the Tetradic Constraint: Six Philosophical Arguments Reframed | |
D02 | Ontological Adjudication of Modern Phenomenological Models Through the Four Tetradic Constraints: From Kant to Chomsky to Collapse | |
D0 | The Ontological 'Kind' of Truth and the Suppression of Knowing | |
H | Submetaphysics vs. Other models: A Framework of Ontological Triangulation Clarifies Submetaphysics’ distinct position to prevent misclassification with other philosophical or theological systems. Using ontological triangulation, it evaluates competing models by their grounding in being, epistemic structure, semiotic integrity, and moral trajectory toward or away from relational-correspondent truth. |
|
Q | Ground and Drift Ontology, Anthropology, and the Universal Structure of Distortion An exercise in applied ontology. This meta-commentary shows that distortions across psychology, law, economics, politics, and theology are not chaotic quirks but structured displacements. Every error borrows plausibility from ontological anchors — truth, value, and justice — and collapses once those anchors are restored. |

Contemporary Moral and Cultural Applications | ||
E2 | A Biblical Theology of Erotic Union and the Ontological Trespass of Pornography—
Ontological Modes, Moral Boundaries, and the Limits of Observation Applies several domains of the relational-ontological framework—to the contemporary problem of pornography. Contrasts covenantal erotic union with disembodied observation, effigiation, and ontological simulation. |
|
E4 | Art as a Lagging Indicator of Cultural Drift: A Relational-Ontological Reading | |
CS | The Collapse of Conscience: Why Church and State Cannot Align A Bible-based Ontological Analysis |
|
E5 | Authority, Rights, and the Kingdom: An Ontological Analysis of Human Government | |
E7 | The Ontology of Economics: Value, Scarcity, and Stewardship Reclaimed | |
L1 | The Stadium and the Sanctuary: Games as Ontological Substitutes A theological-ontological critique of spectacle as a structural distraction from divine confrontation. |
Part I of II |
L2 | From Pieces to People: Participation, Rivalry, and the Pitfalls of Games as Ontological Abstraction A theological-ontological critique of games as participatory abstractions that risk distorting mastery into rivalry and relational displacement. |
Part II of II |
M | The Hegelian Dialectic as Ontological Evasion Examines the Hegelian Dialectic as a pervasive yet largely unrecognized mechanism of modern thought—a system that absorbs contradiction, neutralizes moral confrontation, and simulates transformation through historical process. Now a cultural reflex shaping politics, media, theology, and social discourse, its power lies not only in its internal logic but in its surreptitiousness: it offers progress without repentance, reconciliation without rupture, and synthesis without surrender. Viewed through a Submetaphysical lens, the dialectic reveals itself not as a tool of understanding, but as an ontological evasion masquerading as moral development. |
|
E10 | Pathologizing Dissent: How “Conspiracy Theorist” Polices Narrative and Bypasses Conscience A relational-ontological critique of lexical sanctification and Overton-window policing. Shows how the “conspiracy theorist” label functions as a pseudo-typophoric gate that replaces adjudication with stigma, and sets a method-plus-morality path for responsible dissent. |
|
The Myth of Neutrality Series | ||
MN | Introduction | |
E11 | The Anthropological Myth of Neutral Culture: Morality Made Visible
Culture isn’t neutral; it’s corporate morality in practice. Semiotic forms either correspond to divine onto-types (exempliatio fidelis) or counterfeit them (effigiation). |
|
E12 | Freedom of Speech as Neutrality — Another Myth Shows that speech is never a neutral commodity, but morally charged by its upstream axiological and relational commitments. |
|
E13 | Evolution: The Myth of Neutral Origins / Closed-System Biology
Exposes evolutionary theory’s hidden premise of closure, using the Cumulative Potentiation Test (CPT) to demonstrate structural deficits and the collapse of its claim to neutrality. |
|
E14 | The Myth of Neutral Choice: Why Your “Right to a Worldview” Isn’t Ontologically Neutral Exposes the myth that worldview choice is neutral. Civic rights protect persons, but every choice remains accountable to truth under probationary freedom. |
|
E15 | The Myth of Progress The Myth of Progress assumes morality evolves with time. In reality, technology advances but the human heart does not. Applied Ontology exposes how novelty is mistaken for virtue and shows that true progress lies not in chronology but in repentance, fidelity, restitution, and stewardship. |
|
Conceptual and Historical Contextualization | ||
C | Controversial Resolutions and Theological Contrasts
Clarifies key theological controversies and interpretive tensions that naturally arise in dialogue with the relational-ontological framework and compares and contrasts Grace, Will and Judgment across Calvinist, Arminian and Adventist frameworks. |
Optional adjunct to Moral Taxonomy |
E | The Historical Legacy of Relational-Ontological Suppression
History's Detour from Ontological Clarity Explains why failure patterns persist—not merely because of individual conceptual mistakes, but due to historically embedded, institutionalized suppression of ontology over centuries. |
|
E1 | A Case Study in Onto-type and Semiotic-token Substitution Pioneering vs. Current Institutional Adventism. |
Stand alone case study with ontosemiotic application |
Stand-alone Essays | ||
P | From Pedagogue to Paraclete The Law: not a destination, not to be bypassed, but a rite of passage Too often we mock others caught under the law — and just as often we condemn ourselves when self-examination turns harsh. But the question is not ‘How bad am I?’ The better question is ‘Where am I in the passage?’ The law is not the end, but the way through. |
|
R | The Ontological Analysis of Why Jesus Had to Die A biblical–ontological study revealing that Christ’s death was not arbitrary punishment but the necessary act of holy love by which God upheld justice, restored creation, and secured the moral harmony of His universe. |
|
Incomplete Essays | ||
K | Civilizational Lag and Ontological Withdrawal: Contrasting the Submetaphysical Model with Gibbon, Toynbee, and Spengler |
|
K1 | The Ontology of Bias: Deconstructing Cognitive and Behavioural Distortions Reframes cognitive distortions not as quirks but as displacements: truth swapped for consensus, value for anchors, fairness for optics. By exposing these proxy substitutions and restoring their ontological ground, the essay collapses bias into clarity. More than a catalogue, it offers a compass — a practical framework for philosophy, psychology, and public reasoning. |
|
Diagnostic and Adjudicative Tools | ||
D | Conical Cognition – The Architecture and Accountability of Thought Builds the structural model of thought: how reasoning should work, and what epistemic suppressed looks like. |
Follow on from Epistemology |
Da | The Disambiguation Axiom (or Deep-Parsing Axiom) | Sub-Appendix to D |
D1 | Diagnostic fault lines: Applied analysis of Onto-Epistemic Evasions Applies Conical Cognition model to specific philosophical problems, showing repeated patterns of suppression, substitution, and failed resolution. |
Application of Appendix D |
D2 | Onto-Epistemic Bandwidth Suppression Evaluation Tool (OEBI) Anthropic Patterns of Onto-Epistemic Evasion: Diagnosing the Moral Posture Behind Suppressed Systems. |
Extension of D1- functional tool |
D3 | Claritics: The Third Pillar of Foundational Literacy A proposed discipline of identifying, testing, and resolving ontological ambiguity. It applies structured criteria to distinguish authentic assemblies of meaning from counterfeit constructs, tracing how labels, categories, and frames either clarify or distort reality. As both a diagnostic and pedagogical tool, Claritics complements the Submetaphysics framework by exposing semantic drift, symbolic manipulation, and false assemblies, while equipping readers with practical heuristics for precision in thought and discourse. |
|
D4 | Naming vs. Ambiguity: How Disambiguation Collapses Manipulative Mystique Ambiguity is fraud’s cover. Naming is fidelity’s act. From mystique to measurement, from effigiation to reality — disambiguation is the way truth is defended. |
|
D5 | Nominalization and Cognitive Assembly
Introduces the Principle of Nominal Assembly: how naming not only economizes cognition but also assembles tacitly free-floating components into operable units. Explores the “assembly threshold” where diffuse content becomes constraint-consistent, transferable, and functionally clear. Cross-referenced with Claritics and the ODA tool. |
|
J | Applied Ontology
Bridges foundational ontology into practice. Outlines axioms, failure modes, and litmus tests that expose counterfeit legitimacy and scale evasions. Provides case-study templates and diagnostic tools linking ontology to ethics, governance, and discourse. Form constant, scope variable: scale alters office and remedy, never kind. |
|
F | Onto-Discursive Analysis Tool (ODA): Diagnosing Framing, Suppression, and Relational Displacement This section offers a method for diagnosing truth distortion—tracing how discourse manipulates meaning through suppressed alternatives, binary pressure, and ontological misdirection. |
Applied tool—culmination of discourse analysis |
G | Multidimensional Morpheme Analysis Tool (MMAT): Semantic Discernment and Ontological Clarity This section equips readers to dissect language at its smallest loaded units—revealing how words carry ontological weight, ethical drift, or counterfeit meaning beneath their surface. |
Applied tool—supports ODA tool and semiotic precision |
I | Discrimination and Disambiguation Index
Exposing semantic drift, pseudo-equivalence, and moral dilution by tracing how words resolve across connotation, agency, and ontological alignment. This section proposes a multi-axis tool for evaluating language itself. |
Stand alone conceptual provocation tool |
