[Platt previously] My thought exactly. Arlo's "self-as-concept" begs the question, "What isn't a concept?
[Arlo responded] Inorganic patterns of value, biological patterns of value, and social patterns of value. [Platt then] How are those not concepts? Are they not ideas? Are not "patterns" symbolic abstractions from direct experience? [Arlo] Read LILA. "Within a Metaphysics of Quality, science is a set of static intellectual patterns describing this reality, but the patterns are not the reality they describe." The intellectual patterns we abstract from experience are not the reality they describe. I'm not even sure what you are disagreeing with me on here. Clarify this for me.
