Ron to Andre, I do not argue that point with Platt and Bo, what I do argue is that Bo posits that s/o is THE human intellectual level, absolutely. Per western culture, it certainly dominates, but as a species? it leaves out all sorts of intellectual cultures and patterns. It makes the mistake of posing a culturally chauvanistic world view in evolutionary terms, dangerous in my opinion. The intellectual level is defined by the culture it emerges from it is as all MoQ concepts, contextual. Andre: Point taken Ron and, for me (or Bodvar?) to ponder over a bit. Off the top of my head though the MoQ is a product of American/European culture. Also, Pirsig finds Bodvar's SOL not necessarily true.
And, Ron, referring to your 2nd posting...I have espoused earlier my misgivings as to calling Pirsig's 'program/system' a metaphysics for the same reason you do:There is no "meta" in experience. If anything MoQ throws the "M" out alltogether.
