Joe,

It would be good if you could expand (with a paragraph or two) on how you "logically jumped" from saying:

'The definition for "absolute" in the dictionary: "The ultimate basis of all
thought, reasoning, or being".'

TO CONCLUDING:

" This can be realized in MOQ since DQ is indefinable."

I'm not saying you're necessarily incorrect, it would just be helpful to see explicitly a couple of the logical inferences that you used to reach your conclusion (from this definition)!

Best wishes,

Ant


Copleston:

"Use of the term 'sentient experience' 
                          should not, of course, be taken to imply that according 
                          to Bradley the Absolute can be identified with the visible 
                          universe as animated by some kind of world-soul. The 
                          Absolute is spirit."


Pirsig: "There is 
                          brand of vodka called 'Absolut'...”
