Platt
24 Feb. you said: (to Craig)
> Pirsig explains what "the essence of the MOQ is" in the following from
> LC, Note 132:
"It (the MOQ) employs SOM reasoning the way SOM
reasoning employs social structures such as courts and
journals and learned societies to make itself known. SOM
reasoning is not subordinate to these social structures, and the
MOQ is not subordinate to the SOM structures it employs.
remember that the central reality of the MOQ is not an object
or a subject or anything else. It is understood by direct
experience only and not by reasoning of any kind. Therefore
to say that the MOQ is based on SOM reasoning is as useful
as saying that the Ten Commandments are based on SOM
reasoning. It doesn't tell us anything about the essence of the
Ten Commandments and it doesn't tell us anything about the
essence of the MOQ."
Thanks Platt for bringing this quote that again affirms the SOL.
".....THE WAY SOM EMPLOYS SOCIAL STRUCTURES".
See he treats SOM as the level above the social level. Ergo
SOM=Intellect. Can it be said clearer?
"THE MOQ EMPLOYS SOM (=INTELLECT) ...."
See he treats the MOQ as something above - and "employs" intellect.
Ergo the MOQ it is not an intellectual pattern.
What you wrote Platt was all fine, but I cut this short in the hope that
the ......(censored) of the this site will notice and understand. Fat
chance ;-).
