    Scott,
     I don't understand the tetrathingy clearly but
    something you said really resonated:

    The key is the fourth point. The LCI is, by and

    > at least, try to say. For instance, that the more

    > and Y create each other in mutual opposition

    This reminds me about the discussion of
    intellect...... I feel the moq treats value as
    "desire" for the first three levels and then "value"
    at the fourth level becomes "belief".
    To me this is creating a belief/desire division. But
    as the above says the more you put belief under the
    microscope the more it resembles desire and vice
    versa. So to me if it is "value" at one level and
    "value" at another level then it is the same.
    I was just wondering if you thought belief and desire
    could be seen as contradictory or not..that is I see
    values as 'desire/belief'

    I think this helps me with all the pre-intellectual
    stuff too.... I feel people act that their desires are
    being filtered through beliefs and so are not living
    as passionately as they would "pre-intellect/beliefs".
    If you recognize "values" on all the levels the
    division of desires/beliefs becomes just a matter of
    degree....whereas we use desire for lower level of
    values and beliefs for higher level of values.
