[Platt] I assume you've read Gav's paean to Pantheism, the philosophy rooted in the glories of the biological level. Seems that's where Gav finds DQ in abundance. If I'm wrong, I look forward to Gav correcting me. Ron: Does not RMP point to pre-intellectual experience as being the most moral? doesn't Pirsig put dynamic experience before social-intellectual patterns? I think you might be confusing what Pirsig said about static moral patterns with dynamic moral patterns. Pirsig states that static moral patterns are essential for intellectual development but he also states that dynamic experience comes before these static patterns.
