There are so many good topics that have been suggested in previous months that it seem
a
waste to suggest new ones until a few more of the old ones are used up.
Hopefully the original authors won't mind me resurrecting their topic suggestions -
and
hopefully I've attributed the correct authors to the relevant suggestions

'Lila' was described in one it's reviews as 'having little to add but more dull
taxonomy'. Given
that trying to solve moral dilemmas using MOQ seems to create as much debate and
confusion as not using MOQ and there also seems to be considerable confusion as to the
interpretion of Pirsig's levels, is this a fair criticism?
(Original author Denis Poisson)
To further explore the Social and Intelectual Levels in terms of how they work and
their
composition. Also, if DNA is the "machine code" or interface between the inorganic and
the
biological levels, what form does the interface between the Biological and the Social
levels
take and similarly the interface between the Social and the Intellectual levels.
(Original author Kevin Sanchez)
How would Pirsig unite modernity and postmodernity. Chomsky advocates modernity
claiming we need morality to legitimize our actions and justice is the highest ideal
of
society. Foucault advocates postmodernity claiming that despite our need of it,
morality doesn't exists and that society defines its highest ideal as it wishes. It
seems
Pirsig can't appease the moderns because of his reliance on experience instead of
logic and
he can't appease the postmoderns because of his acceptance of a universal morality
instead of particular morality.
