Nor do I think that individual rights are exclusively revered by Protestants. As Pirsig points out the founders were also heavily influenced by the example of the Iroquois Nations.
[Platt] I doubt about "heavily influenced." Old Ben Franklin may have said something about the Iroquois, but I how much it influenced the others is highly debatable. [Case] Yeah, all that stuff about Sidas and all. Probably, Pirsig was just kidding. moq_discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org.uk/pipermail/moq_discuss_archive/
