Hi Marsha

I can't see where Andre's question begging in his reply to Bo. From the last part of Bo's quote:

"physics (f.ex.) would not keep on making hypothesis and testing them if the objectivity rug was pulled from under them. This is what the SOL preserves"

if you rephrase it says:
SOL preserves (retains) objectivity which enables physics (f.ex.) to keep on making and testing hypotheses

Andre asks simply:
"are you suggesting that the importance of your SOL lies in retaining SOM's 'objectivity'? A simple yes or no will do."


Seems like a straightforward question to the position that Bo maintains.
How is the question being begged?

MOQ's "DQ/SQ" split has nothing to do with SOM's "subject/object"
one. Another thing, yes, SOM that have given up on "objects", but it
has not given up on "objectivity" - these two must be kept apart -
physics (f.ex.) would not keep on making hypothesis and testing them
if the objectivity rug was pulled from under them. This is what the SOL
preserves.

Andre:
Clarification please Bodvar;are you suggsting that the importance of
your SOL lies in retaining SOM's 'objectivity'? A simple yes or no
will do.
