Antithetical Opposition for example, is as extreme weather conditions, may be considered antithetical to human well being. Complimentary Opposition, is a term created to describe opposite qualities and conditions, interpreted as not opposed and antithetical to each other, but as Complimentary. Thus while extreme weather conditions may be antithetical to human well-being in the short term, in the long run this weather may be complimentary to the sustainability of all aspects of the environment overall. Space as opposite of matter is complimentary, to the movement of any entity. The cold of space, may be said to be complimentary to the heat of the sun, when a mean temperature exists, such as that produced by the orbit of earth around the sun. Complimentary Opposition means that change as transformation or destruction, is complimentary to the pre-existent state changed. All natural change can be said to be complimentary. Change which is not complimentary to pre-existent states is called antithetical.

Antagonistic Opposition is a concept which is inherent in the consciousness and perspective of Progressive Materialism, that is necessary for the creation and use of material, for the production of ever increasing living standards.

Inherent in this proposition, is that some will have more than others, and that some will have to take from others what is needed, to promote elitist material ideals. Also necessary is the labor to produce materially advanced states, in which some will have to do more work and enjoy the proceeds less, while others will have more and do less.
