[MD] Distinguishing Levels (Individual level)

[Heather Perella]

Hey Platt,

     Platt said:  "The social  level is not interested
in freedom. It's highest value is conformity. It is
the intellectual level that says "No" to conformity
and sets us free to pursue DQ as each of us,
individually, understands and responds to DQ's "only
good" which happens to be -- surprise, surprise --
freedom.
     This is not to say the social level --- with its
institutions of the  
military and the police -- is not important. They are
vital to protect 
freedom loving individuals occupying the intellectual
level from 
terrorists and other biological criminals."

     Platt, I'm sure you know that the intellectual
level can support conformity, too.  It's called dogma.
 I'm not saying you are supporting dogma, but what I
am saying is don't be so hard on the social level,
which you did lighten up a bit on that level as quoted
above, because the social level does have love, peace,
and sharing working for it, as well.  

     And since I'm intellectually intending love and
peace to be expressed towards others socially and I
allow my bones to stand in a non-threatening posture
on this inorganic earth with atoms moving about with
all this space-time talk coming from my vibrating
voice box where my dad and mom taught me to say with a
sincerity please and mean it to, then I guess
practicing good etiquette need not come just from the
heart but the mind, also.

     Platt said:  "Note the past tense: "It was . . ."
Now that cells have discovered sex, long before we
came on the scene, what do you suppose will be their
next move in response to DQ? I say cells are long past
perceiving or adjusting to DQ. Been there, done that.
Along with evolutionary morality, the DQ response
mechanism has moved on up to individual human beings."

     Your simply wrong here, unless, yes, there's an
unless involved here.  First though, what we find in
the fossil record, you know all those former
biological creatures that have apparently evolved
biologically, and reflectively we notice that dynamic
quality was waiting in the wake zone for these
creatures to change.  Here's the unless part, unless
evolution has stopped and no more new forms of
creatures will appear on this earth from now on.  
     If your focused specifically on the involvement
of sex and DQ, well, I don't know if sex will become
something else, but as I've pointed out, on the
biological level changes do occur, thus, what was
static biologically, changed and new static
definitions on the biological level have happened. 
The dynamic quality of what will be? or what is? is
still a valid question.

Thanks,
SA
