Dear Erin,
This is just meant to express my support for your ideas about the
importance of stories in your 16/1 14:41 -0500 and 15/1
20:50 -0500 posts.
Your ideas illustrate very well what I wrote to John B. in the
'Moral Development'-thread about my meta-ethics 'We know what we
should do by experiencing Meaning in the context of a story.'
I wrote 30/10 15:28 +0100:
'We can evaluate alternative courses of action by their "fit"
into the story of "our" life (which can be understood as a part
of the bigger stories of the groups we identify with. The best
course of action is the one that makes our life into the most
Meaningful (chapter in a) story.' (see my post of 13/11 15:02
+0100 for the sequel)
With friendly greetings,
Wim
