Hi David,
You are so far off base, that I don't even know where to start.

This seems to be your logic:
The MOQ claims that a description is degenerate
Since the MOQ claims that a description is degenerate, it is different
from mysticism which does not claim this.

What I have gleaned from Dave H is that there is a kind of Mystic
that would end an inquirey with the indefineable and rest on it, arresting
any further intellectual growth. A rigid static pattern concening the dynamic.

Mark continues:
My question is what exactly are you trying to prove here?  You can say
that MOQ is different from mysticism as loudly as you want, but your
logic does not prove a thing except that you have made the rule that a
description is degenerate.

[Ron]
Dave seems to be asserting that MoQ's mysticism promotes intellectual growth
in contrast.

Mark explains:
You are resorting to the old logic that is used for God.  God is
undefinable, therefore we cannot describe him.  If we do, we are
worshiping at the alter of a false god.  If this were indeed true, it
would make the bible useless, in the same way that you are presenting
that MOQ only misdirects one from the true nature of Quality.

[Ron]
This really has interested me, for I feel that the faithfull misinterpret
that edict often also. Here I believe you begin to join Dave in his
criticism against arresting intellectual development, that any kind
of description runs foul.
This is what he means by making the distinction between differing
types of mysticism, so there is no real cause to continue the snark
train since you seem to be attacking the very thing he is. If he is
that far off base, then you also seem to be in that catagory.
