    In this paper the author is discussing in what way it is possible to exploit the polar form of spinor fields, and hence the tensorial connection, to construct the re-normalizable high-derivative Chern-Simons (CS) extension of square-curvature Stelle Lagrangian and the least-derivative-CS extension of the linear-curvature Hilbert Lagrangian. Thereafter the author discusses the analogies and differencies of the theories. By considering the two and allowing for the cosmological constant would give the mass-dimension four topological gravitation in the most complete form.
