Hi Bo,
BO: Firstly, to say that both are intellectual patterns makes Q-
intellect identical to SOM's "mind"; everything is mental constructs,
theories, maps (with the inevitable "just" in front), you know the
argumentation, and what the MOQ was supposed to be a relief from
comes rushing to the fore again.
ERIN: Please expand on this not sure if I know what you mean.
BO: A solution is to call SOM a low intellectual level and the MOQ a high
one, but are there any such examples at the other levels. Is a tribe a
low social pattern and a modern state a high one? IMO no, the former is
a purer social pattern while the latter is heavily overlaid with intellectual
value.
ERIN: If something is overlaid with a higher level value then isn't it a
higher pattern? A tribe and modern state are both part of the social level
even though one may be a higher level pattern no? Is what you are saying that
a higher level pattern is a bridge between levels?
Bo: In that sense SOM is the basic intellectual value, while the MOQ
is an intellectual pattern heavily overlaid with the values of a higher
level ... exactly what my SOLAQI idea says.
ERIN: When you call MOQ a rebel pattern it I can't tell whether you are
placing it on the intellectual level or not.
Annotation #41-- The virus is the boundary because it is the simplest organism
that contains DNA. I have read there is some dispute about the virus being
living or dead, and I take this dispute as evidence that it is the boundary.
The dispute whether the MOQ is part of the intellectual level may be evidence
that it is the boundary right? This seems to say that the fuzziness of the
boundary is okay right?
I was trying to decide whether it was possible to name the all disputable
boundaries. Virus numero uno then...human?
