| John O'Loughlin,aka johulin, has always regarded Baudelaire's INTIMATE JOURNALS as somehow of Biblical
                                    stature in their metaphysical or, at any rate, philosophical reliability, as though the opinions of this much-maligned poet
                                    on a variety of subjects were virtually incontrovertible and effectively on a par with the greatest 19th century philosophers
                                    like Hegel, Schopenhauer, and especially Nietzsche, not to mention leading 'homme de letters' like Huysmans, Strindberg, and
                                    Oscar Wilde.  Not surprisingly, he has coupled this great transcript to one of his original projects, namely METAPHYSICAL
                                    MEGATRUTH, via the links below, and thus provided the interested reader with a large collection of his mature philosophy (1996-2005),
                                    some of which also attains to a kind of Biblical verisimilitude without being in any way religiously conventional.
