isn't the idea of limited freedom, oxymoronic? the nature of the moral hierarchy of the MOQ requires some careful explanation, lest it becomes that which it preaches against: an explicit moral code, ie an ideology.
this is not what the MOQ is for. the MOQ is a descriptive, rather than a prescriptive tool. the dynamic/static code trumps the static codes. the dynamic/static code simply states the moral priority of the dynamic. the dynamic refers to unified experience - no subject/object distinctions. the MOQ helps us understand our own psychological evolution. it allows us to understand how and why values conflict with one another. it leads, if followed carefully, to the realization that a process of elimination, through a kind of hegelian dialectic, will lead to the finality of one single virtue: this virtue is the dynamic. this is the purpose of intellect. all explicit moral codes are necesssary but temporary encumberances. they are meant to be incorporated and then died to. this is the hero's journey. this is the journey of all of us. the free individual has no need of any explicit morals; he neither recognises nor offers any. his life is one with nature, one with all, and in unity there logically can be no conflict. conflict is the reason for morals. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED]: > > > [Platt] > > > Intellectually I wouldn't categorize public > nudity as freedom of speech.
