As RMP has clearly stated, the MoQ is not confined within any one philosophic tradition. The last paragraph in your post seems to be unreasonable and exaggerated name-calling because I will not follow your lead. Please do not take it personally. It may be that there is a good relationship between Contemporary Pragmatism/Radical Empiricism and the MoQ, and between Buddhist philosophy and the MoQ, with something to be gained from both approaches. > [Mark] In the first book about Quality, Buddhism was in the title. You have every reason to consider Buddhism in terms of MOQ, that was the intent of the first book. I did not realize there was any dispute about whether Buddhism was related. Who would even suggest such a thing?
There are some who place quotes down instead of explanations. However quotes must be viewed in the context of the entire book, and do not stand on their own. It is quite possible that the context provides the exact opposite of what is attempted to be supported. I can find a sentence in ZMM to support any contention I want. This does not provide any support whatsoever, it is bordering on Dogmatic. Throwing bibles is not a philosophical approach, it is a religious one. If it wasn't for philosophy, I am sure a lot of those posting would be staunch religious Zealots. You can find any quote you want in the bible also. Does this mean that the approach is right? Just because Moses said something does not prove anything. I don't know why some just march in step, it is somewhat disappointing. > > > > Moq_Discuss mailing list > Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. > http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org > Archives: > http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ > http://moq.org/md/archives.html > Moq_Discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org/md/archives.html
