"Quality is morality. Make no mistake about it. They're identical. And if 
Quality is the primary reality of the world then that means morality is also 
the primary reality of the world. The world is primarily a moral order." 
(LILA)

>Of course this is a ridiculous question, as is asking if
>Capitalism or any other system is moral. People have morals.

The question is only ridiculous from a subject-object perspective. From the 
MOQ perspective the answer would be: Yes. A knife is primarily a moral 
order. Indeed, the whole world is primarily a moral order. And remember, 
people don't have morals. Morality (Quality) has the people!

>Why people
>insist on giving human characteristics to non-humans is baffling.

If "man is the measure of all things", then why is this so baffling to you?

It seems that you have one foot planted in SOM and the other foot planted in 
rapidly hardening concrete. It's good to have convictions but only until 
something better (like the MOQ) comes along. A lot of what you say is right 
but in a wrong sort of way, if you get my drift. I think that's what Case is 
getting at too.

Thank you for your comments,
