Bo, You said something of interest here which I want to use to amplify a disagreement I have:
> . Then how can the MOQ - as intellect - employ SOM > unless SOM becomes "social" which it clearly isn't. SOM is born of social reasoning. Before there can be a society, there must be a relationship between self and other. Taking this self/other dichotomy as fundamental is SOM. It's the most rudimentary metaphysical stance there is. Now, if this self/other dichotomy is taken as fundamental, then everything works according to mechanistic laws of interaction and the highest value is unconsciously (as in science )or consciously (as in Randian individualism) assigned to the self. This perversion of morality sees nothing wrong with fudging data to promote academic or professional careers, because after all, when it comes down to it, it's all about the me. The MoQ analyzes this value system and finds it wanting because the self is meaningless without a social and environmental context to define and nurture and thus it is the value of the all over the individual that brings us to enlightenment. Now if I could just convince Ham. Just kidding. I'll roll that rock to the top of the hill once or twice, but when it always rolls back on me, I quit.
