[MD] What kind of ethical theory is the MOQ?

[118]

Hi Marsha,
I believe that Steve's question are appropriate for discussion.  Choosing
the static patterns of value as you state.  How do you do such a thing?

Marsha, surely you must think of your sense of I as being constant.  Sure
patterns change, but you are interacting with them.  If the 'I' is
ever-changing, are you experiencing things as somebody inherently different
and are a different 'I' every moment?  How do you operate under these
conditions?

Aren't there choices to be made?  How do you choose which pattern has most
value?

The idea is not to constrain it, but to expand it.  Your sense of patterns
seems to constrain it.

It could be many ways otherwise.  I don't understand your question.  How do
you determine what are the best static patterns of value available in the
event?  Isn't that what we are talking about?
