Platt,
Betterness from the point-of-view of 'this world' as compared to the
betterness of DQ's total freedom? Is this the betterness
missing? Well you may be correct. There doesn't seem to be any
consideration for stability in most of the scientific drive for
economic progress. I like better James Lovelock's Gaia
point-of-view, which says that in the end Earth will survive as it is
a self-correcting system. Mr. Lovelock is also optimistic in
thinking that there will be humans that survive too. And the Gaia
hypothesis seems more like the MOQ interrelationship between static
and dynamic forces.

Marsha,
"But static patterns, nevertheless, provide a necessary stabilizing force
to protect Dynamic progress from degeneration. Although Dynamic Quality,
the Quality of freedom, creates this world in which we live, these patterns
of static quality, the quality of order, preserve our world. Neither static
nor Dynamic Quality can survive without the other." (Lila, 9)
Does this passage answer your question?
