ANT: If Barfield is correct, this essential message of Jesus corresponds to
Pirsig’s understanding of Quality. Unfortunately, as the teachings of Jesus
have been around for two thousand years it has become distorted with all the
“Sams”, and “Erins” which have appeared in the meantime. As Wittgenstein
said to Erin’s grandfather: “If you don't know what the fuck you're talking
about, stop talking and ask, then listen...” :-)
By the way you worded this I got the impression that you thought I was a Christian that is distorting Jesus's message. I do not consider myself any particular religion and don't remember ever expressing any interpretation of Jesus's message that could be construed as a distortion??? I participate in these topics because I am turned off by ignorant attacks on other people's religion in general----I guess you can only have that complaint if the religion is not the dominant religion in your country though, otherwise you must be a sheep huh.
