    Hi all

    I think Pirsig asserts the MOQ over SOM because
    it has superior intellectual merit.

    As advocates of the MOQ I think we should put
    intellectual values at the top of our list. We might like
    to add freedom, a freedom dependent on the effective
    organisation of the lower levels, but a freedom that also
    recognises that Quality is a whole, so that underneath all
    difference and Otherness is a singular point of identity.

    All this political and religious stuff has to be subordinate
    to our intellectual values, and mere SQ set to be organised
    and used to sustain our highest values of intellect and freedom
    and recognition of the Oneness of Quality that we can find
    in each other and everything else.

    Does anyone here really place anything above these values?
    Are you in the right place?
