If I read you right, whichever of our conflicting value levels dominates at
the moment determines what we feel and say we "like." In a similar
fashion, Bartz's idea that "perception is reality" reflects what level
currently dominates the "perceiving" situation, guided by "liking" Is this
an accurate interpretation of your revealing new perspective on MOQ
reality?
If so, I certainly agree. I would extend it further by suggesting that
immediately after the Big Bang when we were just a dream in the
Universe's imagination, the inorganic level began to emerge from the
incalculable number of individual "likings" of particles to combine. They
were making judgments in their own primitive way that "this is better
than that," responding to the Principle of Rightness (represented by the
force of DQ) that created and continues to create all levels of existence.
It all hangs together and, as you say, "the MOQ makes much more
sense than the SOM." When all is said and done, SOM's dogma of
"chance." is every bit as rigid and unprovable as what creationists
believe. The faith of science in chance knows no bounds.
