Platt:
OK, but here's just one more quote to support my contention that
"betterness" goes to heart of the MOQ:
"Ferrier's first move is to look for the absolute starting-point of
metaphysics in a proposition which states the one invariable and
essential
feature in all knowledge, and which cannot be denied without
contradiction.
For the MOQ this is, "Some things are better than others." Every infant
knows this before he learns his first word." Copleston Papers
Ron:
Why not worse-ness, some things are worse than others.
Is this the same thing? I think he is saying that every
Thing that exists demonstrates value processes. Think outside
Of what you want him to mean for a second. He also clearly states that
man is the measure of value, humans are the decider of good and bad.
You get so caught up relishing the concept of ultimate good and absolute
Better-ness that you fail to notice these things, don't be so quick to
Be in possession of the ultimate source of judging everything
absolutely.
You are fooling yourself if you think that's what MoQ advocates.
