Just as I suspected. You missed the whole point of the MOQ. You fit Pirsig's
description to a tee:

"To answer him you have to go all the way back to fundamental meanings of 
what is meant by morality and in this culture there aren't any fundamental 
meanings of morality. There are only old traditional social and religious 
meanings and these don't have any real intellectual base. They're just
traditions." (Lila, 7)

You pompous ignorant blowhard. I suspect Pirsig is horrified with the way
you constantly twist his words into something hideous and repellant. What
you show every day on this forum is that you are shallow little man without
the guts to articulate his own ideas; instead you slander the man you claim
to revere. Shame on you.
