Hi Dan, Are the patterns of value that exists mentally, in both the social and intellectual levels, 'knowing' and belonging to epistemology? Believe it or not, I was trying to discover why the answers that you and Arlo gave in a different thread were so different, but both seemed so right. I thought maybe it was epistemology versus ontology. But maybe it was just my inadequate question to begin with. Thanks for responding.
