Hi Marsha

The problem here is that you've defined everything but subjects and objects out of the equation! Your starting point is to define the Intellectual level as consisting of only subjects and objects and then say that it's all subjects and objects because that's how it's defined.

So the MoQ is now S/O oriented!!!

 For me there is a Quality Level where
 Reality is Quality(unpatterned experience&  patterned experience), and as of
 yet, no language (except possible when used poetically) properly communicates
 that reality.  Even within physics there is no way yet to intellectualize what 
is
 still in its infancy of discovery and understanding.  I like best the 
possibilities
 for entanglement.  But I will admit I know very little.

Quality level? There is no Quality level - you're now trying to subjugate Quality to a static pattern of Value. This is what levels are - static patterns of Value. Yes, Quality is Reality, according to the MoQ and can be subdivided into Dynamic Quality (Unpatterned Experience [UE]) and Static Quality (Patterned experience [PE] otherwise known as static patterns of Value - or the levels of the MoQ). What you appear to be saying is that there is a fifth level of Value (static - has to be because it's a level) which is Quality. So now Quality (reality) consists of DQ and SQ (UE and PE) where SQ (PE) also contains Quality!!!!!
No wonder no language can properly communicate that reality.
This is what I meant when I said that Bo's interpretation has mangled the MoQ.

/  If your point is that because we "use subjects and objects [and] the 
associated
/>>/  rules for their manipulation" then the Intellectual level is strictly S/O 
then the
/>>/  MoQ, which is written in the same language, is also at this same level. 
So the
/>>/  MoQ is part of the Intellectual level - which is not what you or Bo 
appear to
/>>/  be saying.

 Yes, there is the SOM explanation of the MoQ, where it is intellectually 
presented
 and explained as a theory:  ZMM, LILA, SODV, etc.,

It's not a SOM explanation it's just an explanation in English and
shows quite clearly that SOM and MoQ are Intellectual patterns of Value.

 but there is also the MoQ that
 represents Reality equals Quality(unpatterned experience&  patterned 
experience.)

This is just a re-statement of of Pirsig's Reality = Quality = DQ + SQ.
If this MoQ represents it then how does it do this if not by S/O as you have 
said.


 Mary has asked, and I have asked for examples of intellectual patterns that
 aren't presented as the manipulation of reified concepts and the rules for 
their
 manipulation, but I have seen no such examples.

And I have given examples but while you have defined them out of the picture 
you will
continue to fail to see them as such.
How on earth can Zero be either subject or object when it references neither?
Or infinity?

 Your process metaphysics is
 most certainly a s/o presentation, hopeful for the future, but still mired in 
SOM.


Process metaphysics is in direct opposition to SOM - it says so on the label!

 I'm sticking with Bo.  The Intellectual Level is through and through SOM.

Sorry, but Bo's Intellectual Level (and yours it would appear) may be SOM through and through but the Intellectual level of the MoQ is Intellectual patterns of Value. Subjects and objects are just some of these patterns not it's entirety.


 Cheers, chocolate and love,
