[MD] Using the MOQ

[Andre Broersen]

Chris:

Andre got angry (and I know how he feels):

Well Andre, I'm with you. But then again, I am one of those godless lefties
who believe in - oh horror - a democratic society where the good of human
beings and intellectual growth is the guiding force.

Andre:

Hi Chris and thank you.

'We cower in our (SOM) shelters, with our hands over our ears,
Lloyd Webber's awful (SOM) stuff goes on for years and years and years,
An earthquake (MoQ) hits the theatre! but the (SOM) operetta lingers,
The pianolid (MoQ) comes down, and breaks his fucking fingers...
its a miracle (Roger Waters, Amused to Death, my additions).

Why is it that when one advocates clean air, sea and land, human cooperation
and dignity, the creation of a society free from biological domination and
uncertainties, clearing the way for the development of  healthy, dynamically
responsible intellectual PoV's which, in turn, create those conditions to
transcend itself, is one labelled a 'lefty'?

Chris:
I think that we can bring about an intellectually guided economy, and reform
our social structures at large to make them democratic and with intellectual
value at the centre without becoming to "static". To believe that we can
actually hinder DQ from being realized seems quite weird to me anyhow, and I
keep saying that since we cannot talk about DQ we should talk about the
patterns of Good that we CAN see and talk about and choose the best of
those. The value of human life and the furthering of The Quest for Knowledge
(any) should be first and foremost I feel.

Andre:

Agree Chris. furthering our quest for knowledge, expanding our awareness
into quality intellectual patterns in the quest for freedom from domination
by all ('lower') levels. And reaching those conditions to enable us to go
even beyond this.

Kind regards
Andre
