Like suggested before, read Chapter 11 of Lila to see how it all works. If you
have some beef with Pirsig's explanation, out with it.
[Arlo]
I'm not arguing with Pirsig, I am arguing that YOUR statement to Craig that
quarks value what they value in order to make the cosmos recognizable and
inhabitable by "man" is ridiculous, and certainly not in line with the MOQ.
So these quarks, the ones whose value preferences are based on ensuring a
man-friendly cosmos, how do they know? Did they vote on it? If they are so
concerned about making the cosmos a theme park for man, why create so much
man-free space?
Don't misunderstand, I get the tactic here. Since you can't really justify
this, you'll make empty references to LILA and say "its your fault for being
stupid". Its not a new rhetorical device, really.
