[MD] MOQ is good. What is it good for?

[Ant McWatt]

Ron, all,



To link up religion with the MOQ will take an immense amount of high 
quality education; probably outside the present SOM based 
school/college/university set-up nearly all the world tends to have 
imposed on it presently.  Hence this new MOQ University project that I 
have recently initiated.  However, it's a small start.  I look at 
sincere religious men of good will (such as John McConnell & Paco - 
both Roman Catholics who occasionally post here) and realise the work 
involved is immense because these two guys are about the best of a very 
large, misled & misinformed group i.e. probably the majority of the 
global population!



Yours mystically,



Ant

It is good to have a solid foundation from which to see, feel, hear and

 And it is important to get the words right. And once the words are in 
place they are properly understood…in the context within which they 
receive their fullest meaning and explanatory power...

Ron then responded October 14th:


I have been thinking long and hard about the attempt to recover religion from the religious, (it seems to me to be the subject of concern) and I keep 
Going back and forth between the
Well meaning philosopher trying to
Link up their values in such a way
As to maintain as much of the old
Beliefs as they can while not compromising their philosophical
Integrity and the realization that
The old belief system only serves
To corrupt that understanding rendering the project futile and
Inhibitive.
I think, personally, one can link up
Religion with philosophy (particularly
Pirsigs) if they really understand the message. 

That's why agree with a lot of your
Post, if there is a problem with that
Ability to connect, then it's a sign
That perhaps we need to review our
Conceptions.
