How does one approach a moral conundrum from an MOQ perspective?
Here's an easy one: should the doctor save the germ or the patient?
Obviously, Pirsig says she should save the patient, but what is the
justification? How does the MOQ fit in with typical categories for
ethical theories?


Is it teleological?

Is it consequentialist?

Is it deontological?

Is it relativistic/subjectivist?

Is it virtue based?

Is it rights based?

something else?
