Ian,

You make a couple of claims which argue from a standpoint that ideas come 
*before* quality and coherence.  This is ugly and for lack of a better word … 
has little coherence..

I don't 'believe' this.  I experience quality and coherence.  This coherence 
exists before me or any ideas I have about it. See the difference? I don't have 
to experience 'incoherence' to know what coherence is.   Some ideas are just 
more coherent than others.. Those ideas which are low on the scale of coherence 
- we call low quality and those which are high on the scale we call high 
quality..

Couldn't disagree more.  This is more idealism.  Certainly our ideas of how 
coherent something is depends on the culture from which we are from.  But 
what's fundamental isn't the ideas or the culture but the quality which creates 
all things including these ideas and cultures.  This 'coherence' is before 
*both* our ideas about it. So it's not just a matter of opinion - but a 
universal quality before all things.
