[MD] Morality, Abortion and the MoQ

[X Acto]

Also Michael,
The Quality you would like to pin down IS meaningless, it only has meaning
in context to the individual experience. Thus it can not, and will not be universally
agreed apon. The latching you seek amounts to alot of tail chasing in this regard.

Whats good for you is bad for me, whats good for you is good for me, whats
bad for you is good for me, whats bad for you is bad for me each in it's context.

How can one hope to come to any sort of universal latch? for everything is contextual.
I think most of the discussions you have initiated have come to this conclusion.

MP: I take issue with that statement, Ron. I don't think it is accurate to MoQ. 
Quality implies what humans perceive as "better" over "worse." Without that 
distinction, Quality is meaningless. Pirsig goes into great detail to show this in 
ZMM. These "certain types" of patterns toward which things tend in Quality 
experience are "better" than the one from which they tend.
