I need to understand two things you said, David. They make sense to me, but I need to understand how you mean them. I notice you use careful language in "a general tendency toward" and "endowed with a sort of" and the use of these equivocating terms tells me that you are honestly fumbling for meaning here. Which I can sure relate to...

If by "general tendency toward an undefined betterness" you mean "good" and by "sort of sixth sense that tells us about the quality" you mean conscience or judgement, then I can understand you perfectly in a fairly conventional framework. However, this seems to me to lean your thinking toward the Roycean edge of dialogue with Absolute Thought providing a context for reality and puts you in a basically theistic camp. If this is not true, then how are you explaining "undefined betterness" and "sixth sense" in a more meaningful and empirically supported fashion to someone like Krimel for instance?
