>> Don't misrepresent my post; look again at the subject line.  RMP states in

>> to see it as any thing new.  ..."  These are RMP's words.  Perhaps you

>> Quality', makes a similar statement:
>> 
>> "I also have a concern of my own. This is the concern that philosophers,
>> instead of coming to grips with the philosophy at hand, sometimes dismiss
>> it by saying, “Oh he is saying the same as someone else,” or “someone else
>> has said it much better.” This is the latter half of the well known
>> conservative argument that some new idea is (a) no good because it hasn't
>> been heard it before or (b) it is no good because it has been heard before.
>> If, as has been noted by R.C. Zaehner, once the Oxford University Professor
>> of Eastern Religions and Ethics, I am saying the same thing as Aristotle;
>> and if, as has been noted in the Harvard Educational Review, I am saying
>> the same thing as William James; and if as has been noted now that I may be
>> saying the same thing as Spinoza: then why has no one ever noticed that
>> Aristotle and Spinoza and William James are all saying the same thing?"
>> 
>> And previously in the same document:
>> 
>> "The Metaphysics of Quality's central idea that the world is nothing but
>> value is not part of any philosophic tradition that I know of. I have
>> proposed it because it seems to me that when you look into it carefully it
>> makes more sense than all the other things the world is supposed to be
>> composed of."
