Good point about seeing the world in the MOQ "context" instead of through the
usual subject/object lens. "Intellect is blind to being a value level" sums up the
problem beautifully. Maybe some here who might better relate to the idea that the
MOQ is a whole new "paradigm" instead of just another view resting on conventional
assumptions. "Paradigm" appeals to fans of Thomas Kuhn's philosophy.
