Greetings SA,

Everything is connected to everything and is in a constant state of 
change.  This is my root knowledge of reality (Quality(DQ/sq)).  The 
MOQ is a framework, a world view, a better description directed at 
the West to describe our experience of reality.  Better than 
previously held Western world views.

I was pointing out that it might be better to try to have 
experience-based discussions to try to subvert our language's 
inherent dualistic, s/o 
characteristics.  Quality=value=experience.  Experience patterns (sq) 
within the 'individual experience' may cluster together.  So it may 
be that a 's/o experience' has clustered together component s/o 
experiences from different levels.  In the Intellectual Level there 
is a thought out dualist philosophy (ontology?).  In the Social Level 
there is the custom/belief that this dualist, s/o is in fact 
"truth".  The component analogy is suggesting overlapping, not distinction.

Maybe this helps make my thinking clearer, maybe not.
