I tend to want to harmonize with you.

Greetings,

I wonder about ARlo's statement.  I've thought long and hard about 
the word "good".  There is the "good" in "good vs. evil" or "good vs. 
bad", the ethical good, the anthropocentric point-of-view.  I don't 
think that is the good of the MOQ.   The ethical good may be there 
through the pointing to Zen/Buddhism's path of compassion or the 
description of Arete.  I do not see SPoVs existing because they are 
good as opposed to bad, but more like there is value of some strength 
for it's existence.

Am I confused?
