Ron:
Bob specifically states that when we follow Dynamic Quality we are free. He 
states that natural selection
aka evolution is dynamic quality at work, which is what touched this whole 
pissing match off. 


What you Steve seem to insist on, is that free-will or dynamic quality as 
re-named by Pirsigs
MoQ,  can not be or should not be talked about. Yet we see how he connects the 
two concepts
not as diametrically opposed but as a cohesive total explanation.
What would be a more relevent and meaningful discussion on the MD but a 
discussion involving
deterministic static patterns and their freedom to evolve? 

How does the denial and rejection of a dilemma ever solved or "dissolved"? not 
by avoiding it
or ignoring it as a non-issue but by it's explanation, and the power that lies 
in Pirsigs MoQ
is explanitory not negation.

The Dilemma is disolved by explanation, not ignoring the debate entirely as 
meaningless.

Only rigid pricks do that.
