Hi Mark,
I appreciate the acknowledgment.
I am unsure about the quality of diversity per se. This seems to me to
be a justification for a lot of BritArt which I find - um - pointless.
Okay, in this sphere (intellectual) I dislike the art but I will defend
their right to produce it. I think I am supportive of diversity, but
with qualifications.
Mark 19-03-04: Hi Jim. I feel diversity can be defended in MoQ terms. The
position with BritArt may be a socially dominated issue? I find the aesthetics of
much BritArt to be lacking in intellectual Quality.
Diversity in biological terms means plenty of things. We need this, but
diversity in disease? Well this one is being played out on many diverse
levels: intellectual, social and biological. I'm thinking of the
current todo with multiple disease jabs for kids here (MMR) which is a
media long runner in Britain, perhaps elsewhere.
Mark 19-03-04: Diversity in disease may result from diversity in life forms
upon which disease can flourish? However, the latter is of a higher
evolutionary coherent state and in a better position to 'get the upper hand'?
Disease is, by definition, an aberration of a better state? But the better
state got 'to be,' 'to exist' in the first place, and the MoQ helps explain why.
But then, maybe diversity to MOQ-Discuss is a tad unwelcome ;-)
All the best, and thanks again
Jim
Mark 19-03-04: Ah! The more informed MoQ contributors there are, the better
the discussion maybe? I reckon that would be a good thing.
All the best,
Mark
