What an interesting thread. MoQ 101 states that higher level patterns are built of lower level patterns.
(a) Ant-patterns and ant-biological-structures confirm this. OR (b) Ant "behavior" and ant "colonies" suggest that we ought to lower the social bar "considerably". ---- The evidence is consistent with both (a) and (b). Hmmm ... ________________________________ From: Magnus Berg <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thu, August 19, 2010 11:41:02 AM Subject: Re: [MD] Social level for humans only Craig On 2010-08-19 18:17, [email protected] wrote: > [Magnus] >> It is the social value that makes ants carry all that food and >> other stuff to the hill, if each> ant was ruled by its biological >> values, he would run off and care only for himself. > > No, the ant's behavior is biologically inherited.

Pirsig mentions lust, greed, senses of taste, smell, sight, etc. Do you see anything about self-sacrifice for the common good like ants do? The fact that it's biologically inherited is totally irrelevant. Much of our non-biological humanity is also biologically inherited, such as mother-instinct, compassion, etc. Your MoQ may have solved some problems, but in the wake you have created loads of other problems.
