You quoted from ZAMM, but this is from LILA: "The Metaphysics of Quality says that science's empirical rejection of biological and social values is not only rationally correct, it is also morally correct because the intellectual patterns of science are of a higher evolutionary order than the old biological and social patterns." I'm not sure we want to re-assimlate the biological/social passions and biases into the Intellectual Level. What do you think?
