Horse, All. 26 July you whin(ni)ed.:

You have yet to deliver one single practical example of how the strong intepretation fails and the "orthodox" delivers. On the contrary I have shown a lot of examples of Pirsig when he USES the MOQ ends in the (original) SOL. If this is "incredibly mangling" and not "having the faintest chance of making sense" so be it. > And given the general level of nonsense created in support of Bo's > version this appears to be the case. The passage you quote seems to be > very clear in what it says but explaining this to Bo is pointless > because he has no interest in seeing anything in any way other than in > terms of his SIMian interpretation. Your philosophical and/or logical abilities haven't impressed me much, you trust DMB to come up with arguments and when I show them as really mangling the MOQ (his SQ = concepts bit for instance) you resort to kindergarten name-calling. It suits you ill dear Mick White. > A consequence of this is that what you say will be similarly distorted > because it doesn't conform to Bo's interpretation and therefore ends up > mangled in the same way as almost everything that Pirsig has said. Pirsig has said many things and not all are MOQ compatible or directly harmful, particularly the "Quality/MOQ" meta-metaphysics (can't find any other name) that outright nullifies the MOQ. And when it stands between the latter-day Pirsig and the MOQ I vouch for the latter. > Could I interest you in a nice hard wall against which you can bang > your head - it feels so much better when you stop! Poor Dave what he has to endure.
