Hi Mark It is good of you to write, but I have no idea what you are talking about. We are dumber now than we used to be? Do you have a mouse in your pocket or are you using the "royal" we? No, this isn't what Robert Pirsig is talking about. Otherwise, why would he have offered the annotations to Copleston that he did? Spirit and soul and God are not meant to be part of the MOQ so far as LILA goes. And he confirms that with his subsequent writings to Ant. Why on earth would you think RMP is trying to get us back to the garden? What garden? Have you been smoking some of John's wacky backy, Mark?
