We have been discussing Pirsig's MOQ for years and disagreed 
and agreed in countless ways, but one thing I think we agree about 
is the MOQ putting traditional or formal religion - what I call 
"Semitic" (Judaism, Old Testament Christendom and Islam) on the 
social value level. 

If anyone joins the discussion without knowing the basics about 
the Dynamic/Static ordering of reality and the static levels, but just 
throws in a concept like "theism" without placing it in the Q system 
it becomes very difficult. Well I know that you discussed at length 
with DMB for instance so all this my admonishing may be 
irrelevant.

Could you expand on what of the MOQ "explained a lot" and what 
developed into a roadblock.

Till then
