[Krimel] The feeling of admiration is mutual and I often think you and I do no so much disagree as that we see things very very differently. [Joe] >From my formal education these words stick out: ³And God saw all that he had made and found it very ³good². Genesis 1: 31 translation by MGR Ronald Knox.
[Joe] >From reading Lila for me these words stick out: ³Good² is a noun. That was it. That was what Phaedrus had been looking for. That was the homer over the fence, that ended the ball game. ³Good² as a noun rather than an adjective is all the Metaphysics of Quality is about.² p. 468 LILA paperback edition. [Krimel] See what I mean? The passage from the Bible that jumps out at me is: "Vanity of vanity, all is vanity saith the Preacher" This is the essence of nihilism softened only by a later passage that reads: "It is better to be a live dog than a dead lion." I would claim that therein lies the law and the prophets... All else is commentary. [Joe] ³Negative emotions make nonsense of Truth by their wrong arrangement of it.All negative emotions are false and the trouble is that they have great power over other people who are not negative at the moment.² ³Good!² [Joe] "good" After your response to my attempt to show origins about seeing ³good² as though it was revealed truth, and common sense I said to hell with it why try? I don¹t know why I seek your approval for the way I see things, but what the hell it can¹t hurt since your commentary was not about "good" [Joe] Little do I know!
