Hi Marsha
That's fine - there were no threats etc., implied or otherwise.
I just wanted a straight answer to a straight question - I'm not trying to trick you into anything!

The problem with your previous answer, I found, was that while it made sense to you it wasn't clear, to me, what you were saying.

As a matter of interest, what do you see as the difference between saying that the MoQ is an Intellectual/Conceptual metaphysical system which states that Quality = Reality (as per Pirsig) and that the MoQ (presumably still as an Intellectual/Conceptual metaphysical system) denotes that Quality = Reality.

Cheers

Horse,

I would prefer to prevaricate as I find some explanations do not fit easily 
into either/or choice.  It depends on context.  But you are the moderator and 
if the threat is to toss me off the list for not making such a choice, I'll say 
no.  I prefer, though, my two-view explanation.

Yes Marsha I can read and I read your reply which was why I asked the question.

So can you answer my question or will you continue to prevaricate.

Do you believe MoQ = Reality.

Very simple. Yes or No?

Hi Horse,

I wrote to Andre:
I take the two-view perspective of the MoQ.  There is the MoQ as the 
intellectual/conceptual metaphysical system, with all its examples and 
supporting explanation, which was presented by RMP in 'LILA' and with 
interviews, text and letters; and there is the MoQ as Reality = Quality 
(Dynamic/static), or as I prefer to think of it:  Value(unpatterned/patterned).

In the second view, I am saying that the Metaphysics of Quality denotes Reality 
= Quality(Dynamic/static).  Metaphysics as first, or fundamental, principle.

Hi Marsha

Are you saying that

MoQ = Reality

or

Quality = Reality?

dmb:
Marsha stands firmly upon a paradox that she doesn't understand. She's remains 
confused as to the meaning of the MOQ's central distinction, i.e. the 
distinction between concepts and reality, between static quality and Dynamic 
Quality.
Marsha:
Here is the fundamental principle of the MoQ on which I totally agree.

"The Metaphysics of Quality's central idea [is] that the world is nothing but value 
..."
