[MD] Static latching & faith

[David M]

Hi Scott

I wonder about this. I see your point but push it in this direction and you 
have another problem.
If the transcendental is so special, so beyond experience, what is it? how 
can we ever know anything
of it? I think the whole point about recognising DQ in experience is that 
the doors of perception
can be opened, that the mystical can be recognised in ordinary experience, 
that experience has
first rights over the reductions of experience that enable science to get on 
with its business.
Let's not ignore the transcendental or forget that the reality of the 
transcendental is entirely
apparent in experience, if you can see the movement of DQ which declares the 
existence of
borders and border crossings.

regards
David M
