Marsha to Andre:
You seem not to understand that I am not interested in your moralizing
baloney...
"There are so many kinds of problem people like Rigel around, he
thought, but the ones who go posing as moralists are the worst.
Cost-free morals. Full of great ways for others to improve without any
expense to themselves. There's an ego thing in there, too. They use the
morals to make someone else look inferior and that way look better
themselves. It doesn't matter what the moral code is - religious morals,
political morals, racist morals, capitalist morals, feminist morals,
hippie morals - they're all the same. The moral codes change but the
meanness and the egotism stay the same." (RMP, 'LILA', Chapter 7)
Andre:
This is not 'egotism' Marsha. It has to do with understanding the very
fundamentals/basics of Pirsig's MoQ. The division DQ/sq which you do not
accept (just mix them up they're both the same).
That the MoQ is an intellectual pattern of value, which you do not
accept (the MoQ=Experience/Reality itself).
That you need to write an entire paragraph explaining and understanding
the idea of a static pattern to yourself and which Pirsig simply
summarizes as static you manage to make it (self)-contradictory
static=ever-changing. Rigel represents the social level. I am trying to
help you understand this at an intellectual level. However, your
repeated and close identification (chapter 14 of LILA)with Lila, at the
biological level explains to me the twist you are making...and you do
the same with Pirsig's, Dewey's, James', dmbs and Anthony's statements.
You see them all as personal, social level attacks on you because you
are so far removed from the intellectual level you do not recognize it.
You translate intellectual values automatically as social values. It's
quite a feat! And this is really sad.
Same way as a few posts back you kidnapped the intellectual level by
confusing the mystic's reality with social morality.
Anyway, you are and remain incorrigable. Go away please. This discuss is
really too much for you to handle.
