belief that Pirsig's classical and romantic modes of thinking are
neurological determined.
More like neurologically supported, predictable, consistent, consilient,
few things are determined in this world.
It is far from nonsense to to bring cross-discipline material

No, you're right. He had reversed his claim into classic/romantic modes of
thinking causes left/right brainedness.

sense and what does not. And, of course, questions of sense precede questions

Arlo said to John:
...You're making a very specific claim, in order to reduce Pirsig's problematic
classical/romantic schism to one that is determined by neurophysiology. I'm
saying, the current research does not support that at all.What's critical
here is that you're not making the claim
