Paul,
You asked:
With respect to your ongoing support for SOL I believe I have shown that it
is based on an idealist assumption, i.e, reality is a logical, coherent
universe of thought. Perhaps you can respond to this as Bo has thus far
neglected to do so.
Mati: I don't know what your premises and conclusions are suggesting and how
that will contribute to find a basis to discern intellectual values from
other values which is my motivation in all this. "Idealist Assumption"??? I
don't know Bo's SOL being any more or less an idealist assumption than
Pirsig's MOQ.
I don't want to assume what Bo's is thinking in this but I am intrigued by
his choice of definition. Pirsig statement was, "As long as you're inside a
logical, coherent universe of thought you can't escape metaphysics." Try
this on for size and see if it has the same meaning, "As long as your're
inside a universe of intellect, you can't escape metaphysics."
Take care,
Mati
