[MD] The SOM/MOQ discrepancy.

[X Acto]

Hello Arlo,
Not to rush to anyones defence, but....

Due to the fact that biological life is present in the universe, one could argue that
reality is indeed a self reflecting system. What that means or what that entails
I'm not sure I know. But it does seem to be an existing feature.

Here I see value (Quality) at the very root of your philosophy -- an Essence that created the world because it wanted to be appreciated...

[Arlo]
Exodus 20:5 "You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God..."

I'd say any "Essence" that's so needy that it needed to create "the world" just so its creations will "appreciate it" (perceive its magnificence!?)  is a poor "Essence" indeed. But hey, if you need something to worship, I suppose anything will do...

So let me ask... in your views (the need-to-be appreciated Essigod, or the MOQ-based Qualigod), did the "intent to produce man" precede man's existence? That is, in both of your metaphysics, was their a "plan" to make man long before the cosmos appeared?
