GLENN:
"But let's see what we can deduce from Pirsig's statements:
1) biological patterns are objects outside our minds
2) the devil is a biological pattern
Conclusion: the devil is running around the earth, incarnate."
PLATT:
"The devil is a biological pattern? If anything, the "devil" is an intellectual
pattern created at some point during the early social level to symbolize
(and for some, explain) low quality experiences."
As I said above, 1) and 2) are Pirsig's statements (or paraphrases of them). I only drew the conclusion. I guess you don't agree with Pirsig about the devil.
