Jon:
Would it be too much to ask where you got the idea that helping
others �in need� throughout the world is high quality? From religion?
>From teachers? From your feelings?
I don�t find much in the MOQ to support your view that it�s immoral
to �sit back and enjoy life when so many people in the world are
suffering and dying.�
In fact, doesn�t Pirsig�s solitary trip down the Hudson in a
comfortable yacht, thereby �choosing not to participate,� belie your
definition of �humanity�s biggest problem,� at least in MOQ terms?
In light of Pirsig�s assertion that �If you eliminate suffering from the
world you eliminate life,� I�d be interested in your opinion of the
MOQ has a moral guide. It would seem that you and Pirsig are
deeply at odds.
The moral code of the MOQ is built on a rational structure. I�m
curious to know what your moral code of sacrifice is built on.
