Relativism has no place within any Pirsigian context and
that should include the LS. Read chapter 3 on ZMM! So if
you have a 'different' solution which is no more 'right'
than Darwin's theory or Pirsig's MOQ may I suggest you join
a discussion group dedidcated to Feyerband, Thomas Kuhn,
astrology, Aliens, Nuage or any other relativisitic/liberal
theory which is the current flavour of the month. But
please don't block my in-box with such drival.

my comment:

as much as i would like to oblige you and stop blocking your in-box with my
drival, it seems to me that something in my writings is pulling you,
otherwise why even bother answering my nonsensical drival, not once but
twice? i realize my writing is nonsense and i said it very clearly for all
to read. did you miss something, or are you in the habit of responding to
nonsense?

i realize that my opinions are just my opinions...now you have to realize
that your opinions are simply your opinions and nothing more. i am sure from
your name dropping that you are very well read and consider yourself as
yourself, completely separated from universe and safe in your little haven
of intellectualism.

'the world has no existence whatsoever outside the human imagination' is a
direct quote from zmm page 31. if MOQ doesnt support relativism, then pirsig
has certainly changed his zen-like viewpoint over the years. and if this
statement doesnt resound with subjectivity, i have never read a statement
that does.
