Yes, "the finger" is obscene  ;-)

Why  harp on the term "intellectualization" indicating something less 
than real? From the 4th levels "intellectual as different from the real 
article" the MOQ/QUALITY distinction is self-evident, but the MOQ 
does NOT subscribe to the S/O distinction ... in a metaphysical sense, 
yet we seem condemned to wander around in a no-man's land 
between Q-intellect (still as SOM) and the MOQ as an intellectual 
pattern.

When are YOU gonna get uncomfortable with this silly finger/moon 
thing? The image of the heavenly body is just a subjective mindish 
secondary by-product - if you stick to intellect's S/O distinction and the 
MOQ is an alternative to SOM's platypus-spawnings. The MOQ 
revealed that the said platypis were caused by the S/O mistakenly 
being regarded as fundamental, while it as its own 4th.level it's a great 
static asset.

Looks as if real thinkers never will be comfortable with "just forget that 
platypus and be happy" attitude.
