Steve:
I guess it depends on what you mean by ³everything.¹ The traditional idea
of pantheism is based on a material understanding of ³thing.²
Still, while defining ³thing² as ³pattern of value² is a great innovation
on materialism it could be thought of as a new sort of materialism.
Is it the same to say, ³only that which has value is real,² and ³all of that
which we know to be real is composed of value²? I think there is a
difference.
All things have quality, but I think it is problematic to say that
God/Quality is limited to the sum total of all things. In the moq, DQ which
is not a thing under any definition would be left out, for example.
