My position is that a religious view is not a scientific view, and
much confusion arises when one seeks for religious belief the
imprimatur of science.
Furthermore, my position is that any belief, religious or otherwise,
that does not have an empirical basis will not be supported by the
Metaphysics of Quality.
Hi msh,
I understand where you are coming from here, as what you are stating is
object over subject.
The subjective view is a distortion of the objective view, mind is only an
accumulation of knowledge gained from experience.
It does seem this is the path Pirsig took, so I imagine MOQ would depend on
it, and since I am on a MOQ forum, I would be the one out of line in my
thinking.
I'll continue to read to see if I can make sense of the empirical thinking,
and will admit to being more of a mystic in my philosophy, and even in my
reality, as I do feel I still have a strong relationship with the spirits of my
forefathers. This static pattern will possibly always make up a major
philosophical difference in the way I view the world.
We'll just see what comes about.
