"How many of us here in this group believe that our bodies, before sensing
anything else, sense values?"
RICK:
This question obviously refers to an MoQ way of thinking; and so I must ask
what the "anything else" you are refering to here is. After all, in the MoQ
EVERYTHING is a value and so this question would simply read--- "How many of
us here in this group believe that our bodies, before sensing (other
values), sense values?"
PLATT:
"When you stop to think about, this is really an astounding paragraph. The
entire world of subjectivity-the world of personal opinions and prejudices,
likes and dislikes-is BIOLOGICAL? My admiration for Rachmaninov's Third
Piano Concerto stems from a visceral response of my cells or genes?"
RICK:
It's nothing new but for some interesting insights into what you've asked
here see the article "Human Nature: Born or Made?" from the NY Times science
section of 3/14/00. It's about evolutionary psychology--- it's not
particularly MoQ compatible, but it may get your ideas flowing on this
point.
