Since you are happy to call Wilber a charlatan on the basis of your
fantasies of his motives for writing, may I take the last paragraph of
your diatribe and attempt to find quality in it?
You concluded:
"This is not enough for many students who need, for reasons we may not
wish to go into hear, for more, and more, and more, never quite getting
enough and never being quite satisfied with the best. For the best in
MOQ terms ends a need for knowledge.
Wishing you quality,
Squonk."
Your first 'sentence' must be one of the shoddiest ever written. It
lacks any meaningful structure, has obvious errors in spelling, grammar
and punctuation, and is vague beyond belief. Having just said that
Pirsig "shows how the MOQ works", I cringe to think what this sentence
implies about your understanding of quality.
Your second sentence is equally obtuse. If you mean "The MOQ ends a need
for knowledge", then I am impressed, since this is more than most
religions would claim. However I really don't know what the phrase "the
best in MOQ terms" means, and I wonder if you do?
Then you have the temerity to wish us all "quality".
Pirsig asserts that we all know quality when we see it. I have some
problems with that, but I sure know crap when I see it. Stop trying to
treat everyone on this forum as undergraduates whose essays you are
marking and start dealing with their ideas, or better yet, start
producing some of your own in language we can understand. If you think
Pirsig did just that, great. You can too.
Regards,
John B
