Hi Marsha, Yes, I am aware that such is the way you see. But, what is your point? How does your vision help explain and further characterize the Metaphysics of Quality? If you truly see that what you present is an analogy, then what lies below the analogy (besides another analogy). I could say the world is cheese (as an analogy), and if asked, I could say that the analogy I present is simply an analogy which is made up of analogies. Would this explain what I mean? For what reason do you like to use the concept of "patterns"?
How is it that your presentation of all as analogy on analogy work in favor of MoQ? I don't care if people of importance have said the same. Feel free to present any quote from Pirsig to answer this. Also, if you could, please present your interpretation of such quote, in that way I can understand why your specifically provide it. Perhaps it is not your intention to support your belief system on MoQ discuss; I have no opinion on that either negative or positive. If you choose not to answer these questions, I can respect that. There you go, questions without criticism. I cannot find anything to criticize in what you present.
