Ham said to dmb:
You seem to be saying that it is not appropriate to discuss subjects and
objects in philosophical queries. Since philosophy is an exploration of the
nature of reality, why should experiential entities be exempted? Aristotle,
Kant, Spinoza, Descartes, and James certainly didn't exclude them. Why would
Mr. Pirsig, who called experience "the cutting edge of Reality", consider it
inappropriate to include the subject of experience in a philosophical
discourse, now or at any time?
dmb says:
Nope. That's not even close to what I'm saying. You asked what was
"metaphysical" about subjects and objects and in my answer I talked about the
metaphysical status of subject and objects. It was a direct answer to a direct
question but you missed the point by several thousand light years.
Sigh.
Why do you hang out here Ham? The most basic issues are completely lost on you.
Years go by and still you don't understand anything about Pirsig's work.
