    Hi Mark,

    It may be argued that each person, as Arlo suggests, will value a coherent
    state dominated by particular level(s) depending on the fluctuations of
    season, desire, social expectation and intellectual value. Dan wishes to
    morally bias the Intellectually dominated - fair but impractical - in the
    real world many people value biological and social patterns over
    intellectual patterns.

    Arlo asks:

    Sorry for the delay in getting back to this thread. Would it be fair to say
    that so long as biological and social valued activities do not threaten the
    levels above them, that the MOQ would not criticize their practice?

    "Freedom" would then be the ability to participate in biologically,
    socially and/or intellectually valued patterns that do not threaten the
    layers above them.

    I wish I could use the term coherence, but I must admit I don't fully
    understand it.
