[MD] Shouldn't we be, like, revolting ?

[Arlo Bensinger]

[Platt]
The full paragraph, stating clearly it was a mistake to "against society."

"The Hippie rejection of social and intellectual patterns left just 
two directions to go: toward biological quality and toward Dynamic 
Quality. The revolutionaries of the sixties thought that since both 
are antisocial, and since both are anti-intellectual, why then they 
must both be the same. That was the mistake."

[Arlo]
This says nothing to the effect that it was a mistake to go against 
society. Indeed, Pirsig says the opposite ("The Hippie revolution of 
the eighties was a moral revolution against both society and 
intellectuality") The above paragraph shows the mistake in thinking 
that because "biology" and "DQ" are both against society and 
intellectuality, that biology and DQ were the same.

Lifting a few words out of context. Here's the full passage:

[Arlo]
You already provided the quote, hardly "lifted" anything "out of 
context". Unless you think people on this list are too stupid to 
read, or remember something from an hour ago.

So, tell me, what are a few Victorian moral codes you feel should be 
dusted off, and what are a few you feel should be abandoned.

Also, is it only Victorianism we should not reject outright? Should 
we also re-examine Marxist moral codes, dust them off and see what 
they were trying to accomplish?

What about Indian values? What are a few of those you think we should 
"dust off"?
