Bo now:
What is a non-cultural definition of INTELLECT? When I (thanks to
you) read my SOL essay again I'm struck of its quality: This one for
instance
"What screws it all up is the notion of a mind doing the
intellectualization, while it's intellect that does the
mind/matter-ization"
Ron:
While you are correct for attributing mind/matter to analytic method,
you miss the mark in believing that analytic method defines the
whole phenomena of abstract thought.
Here is my non-cultural definition of intellect:
The intellectual level is defined by the social level values it
emerges from. I think you'll find Pirsig says something very
similar.
Western culture values analytical method and defines intellect using
it's standards.
Bo continues on about his conceited self:
... is a gem (according to my conceited self) and why this point evades
you (all) is a mystery. But some day there must arrive a thinker (with
the credentials that makes it impossible to ignore him) who will take up
the challenge.
Next instalment coming soon
Ron:
Looking forward
Thanks Bo
