[Mark] Who spoke of elevating? Is science of a higher order? How did that happen? What system of measurement do you use to determine this? Please explain.
[Arlo] Intellectual patterns are morally superior to social patterns. Science is morally superior to theism. If you have a problem with Pirsig's hierarchy, why are you here? [Mark] If you honestly believe that plate tectonics explains things, then voodoo you. Go back to your holy books and find more to recite. This chanting is kind of soothing. [Arlo] Sad. [Mark] I do not accept the way in which you understand what Pirsig wrote. [Arlo] Oh silly me, I forgot that when Pirsig wrote "the MOQ is not just atheistic, but anti-theistic", he could be interpreted to mean "the MOQ is theistic". [Mark] If you want to keep beating the notion that somehow your Quality is above a religion then go ahead. [Arlo] Well. There you have it. [Mark] I hear it all the time here so you are not alone. [Arlo] I am happy to be in agreement with Pirsig, yes. [Mark] I do not seem to get any answers to my questions, only religious rhetoric. [Arlo] Sad. But keep beating that drum. Hope it is making you feel better.
