[Arlo] Imprisoning intellect as SOM, yes, by claiming ALL intellect is SOM you take an evolutionary hierarchy and declare its uppermost level "cancerous". I think Pirsig's view that this actually undermines the MOQ is spot on.
[Adie] where did i make a statement like this?, claiming all intellect is som?i never did , nor do i believe that all intellect is som. [Arlo] You did not. Marsha, a la Bo, does. And that is what we were talking about when you jumped in. It was to her I paraphrased: Pirsig: The patient HAS cancer. Marsha: The patient IS cancer. And that's a big difference. The above use of "you" is the abstract general. "By riding a roller coaster, you run the risk of getting puked on." Not *you*, but the hypothetical rider.
