Hi Squonk,

DMB could probably help explain it to you if you ask him nicely (i.e. no name
calling).
sq: But is there any Quality in it?

..and a cancer? Can you explain? What is so bad about Wilber other than
that
you don't understand him?
sq: Place the MoQ and Wilber side by side. Which has more Quality? It's your
own sense of Quality that will tell you. DuMB was asked this question recently
and chose to ignore it.
If you visit Wilber's home page you will see a publicity shot of a bald
Wilber dressed in a crimson robe staring enigmatically through a pair of expansive
spectacles into the lens of the camera. I should think there are enough
warning signs on that site alone to make the Quality sensitive individual laugh
themselves stupid. Funny how some people can't see that isn't it?
You seem to be frustrated that everyone is philosophizing on this list.
Isn't
that what it's here for? If it's not what you are here for then is it
actually
you that really wants to end the discussion?
sq: I am a tad frustrated the MoQ is dismissed off hand as a generalisation.
Do you feel Wilber has Quality?
Your message seems to be "stop posting to this list and look at some art."
Am
I wrong?
sq: Yes, you are. The MoQ is Art. My message is explore and develop your
understanding of the MoQ. That's why the people who run this forum set it up, in
case you had not noticed.
What do you get out of participating in this discussion group?
Thanks,
Steve
sq: The opportunity to change it for the better. This means that one day i
will be proud to recommend it to students who wish to learn about the MoQ and
how thinking in terms of DQ/SQ tension has exceptional explanatory power. My
experience of recommending the forum to date has brought shame upon me, for it
simply lead to students being put off by asshole statements like the assertion
that the MoQ is a generalisation.
