Hi Marsha -- > Everything is water. Would you agree that some water > is better than other water?
A clear, lucid analogy. And you're absolutely right, Marsha. I get categorized as an SOM hanger-on precisely because the MoQers don't understand this. Two conditions are necessary to evaluate anything: 1. The evaluating agent (i.e., subject) must be separated from the object experienced. . 2. The value must be relative to the subject within a range of possibilities. If the universe (objective reality) is perfect goodness, everthing in it is good (moral?). That would make valuation meaningless, as well as a "valuistic" obsever. Instead, the universe is amoral, affording a variety of value possibilities relative to the observer. And the essence of one's experience -- the being of his/her reality -- is determined by the value choices made in life. This relational system is called Existence. Epistemologically, it is "being-aware" of Value. Thanks for a simple but effective analogy.
