[MD] dualism redux

[Ron Kulp]

[kevin]
Again from my point of view, nondualistic thought and behavior is any
approach to reality that realizes the oneness of reality.  Mystical is a
good description.  And the Quality that the MoQ points to is this.  But
the MoQ is not this.

Right, because MOQ is arrived at by using SOM. If MOQ was arrived at
through a Quantum metaphysic
Then there might be an argument.

Marsha, Craig, Ham,
 
Dualism, from my point of view, is any formal system of thought or
behavior that approaches reality as if it were divided into parts.
Subject/object metaphysics is clearly dualistic.  Science and
mathematics as well as religious and political institutions are
dualistic.  And as an intellectual conception of a reality that by its
own admission is greater than itself - it states that Quality is the
source of everything, i.e., reality is Quality and vice versa - the
Metaphysics of Quality is dualistic.
 
Depending on their awareness of and presence to reality an individual's
approach to reality may or may not be dualistic.  Whether scientist or
mathematician, relgious or politician or advocate of the Metaphysics of
Quality, if a person approaches reality as if it were of separate parts
or finite (thank you Ham for making this distinction) then they are
behaving dualistically.  From my point of view, because reality is
infinite, all formal, finite systems of thought are dualistic, i.e.,
there's reality (one part) and there's the system that points to reality
(second part).
