[Arlo previously] This is simply animism on my part, attributing awareness to some object of my experience.
[Micah] Are you sarcastically implying that magnets have awareness, is that your argument? If yes, are they aware of the goodness of Twinkies? [Arlo] No sarcasm. I'm wondering why its "animism" for me project "awareness" onto a magnet, but "not animism" for me to project it onto you? What "proof" do I have that you are any more aware than that magnet? That you'd ask about magnets and Twinkies appears to show you don't really subscribe to the MOQ. The "enjoyment of Twinkies" (a gross thought) is a biological level pattern. Magnets are aware only of inorganic quality. 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/
