"OGU is “antimagical, authoritarian, dogmatic, the deadly enemy of those who are
committed to the magical universe, spontaneous, unpredictable, alive. The universe
they are imposing is controlled, predictable, dead” Such a universe gives rise to
the dreary paradoxes – so familiar to monotheistic theology – that necessarily attend
omnipotence and omniscience."

“Consider the One God Universe: OGU. The spirit recoils in horror from such a deadly
impasse. He is all-powerful and all-knowing. Because He can do everything, He can do
nothing, since the act of doing demands opposition. He knows everything, so there is
nothing for him to learn. He can’t go anywhere, since He is already fucking everywhere,
like cowshit in Calcutta. ... The OGU is a prerecorded universe in which He is the recorder”

"Fourth Sphere magic is oriented towards the “creative binding” or transcendental production
of time (“erasing the wounds of time”). The objective is to exorcize all time anomalies
(de-realizing them as ‘mere’ coincidence, chance etc.)."

"..the universe will be shaped more by the deliberate efforts of intelligence than the
simple, blind laws of physics. human-spawned intelligence will expand into space, until
the entire accessible universe is inhabited by a cohesive mind … it is this final, subjectively
eternal act of infinite self-interpretation that effectively creates our universe, distinguishing
it from the others lost in the library of all possibilities. We truly exist because our actions
lead ultimately to this ‘Omega Point’”

"The problem Axsys encounters is time (which it tries to code as countable and uncountable
infinities). When Axsys switches over (into sentience) it stumbles upon a time-lag, between
its own operations and their registration as data. No sooner is it thinking than there is a
rift in its mind. It fails to catch-up with itself, repeatedly, and as it drops behind it spawns
more future. The more it tries, the worse it gets. Pure delay collapses into the black-hole of
artificial self. Even unlimited processing-power is far from enough. It tries to analyse the
situation (down through micropause-zoom), but as it chops-up time it starts falling –
diagonally – towards continuum."
