Xcto:

I confess to being unable to follow your argument using Boolean
logic in your post of 1 Dec. I'm not saying you're wrong; simply that
I don't "get it." I'd appreciate any further clarification you'd care to
make.

Regarding your objection to my saying that Pirsig finds moral
patterns, morals and values to be synonymous, I ran across this
passage in Chap. 30 of Lila:

"How can a chair be composed of individual little moral orders? But
if one applies the Metaphysics of Quality and sees that a chair is
an inorganic static pattern and sees that all static patterns are
composed of value and values is synonymous with morality, then it
all begins to make sense."

Can you see where I got the idea that in the MOQ morality=values?

Platt
