MF TOPIC CANDIDATES - November 1999

From: Keith A. Gillette (gillette@iglobal.net)
Date: Fri Oct 29 1999 - 03:58:13 BST


Tomorrow I'll post a CALL FOR VOTES. At that time you can state your
preference for next month's topic. Our contenders (including a
last-minute entry from me) are:

1. Todd <Gem7th@aol.com>

Let us speak of Truth,
Can the Unchanging Truth have a Fluid nature?
Can this nature be related to Pirsig's inquiry into Values?

2. David Buchanan <DBuchanan@ClassicalRadio.org>

Can we see an ideology in Lila? What are the political implications of the MOQ?

3. Bodvar Skutvik <skutvik@online.no>

Subject/Object Metaphysics makes us look for the reason for
everything in one of its two realms--for instance the culture vs.
nature debate. As the Metaphysics of Quality rejects the
subject/object division as fundamental, where does it look for (and
find) an explanation?

4. Ken Clark <pclark@ipa.net>
 
"Good is a noun. Good as a noun rather than an adjective is all the
MoQ is about ... if you had to reduce the whole MoQ to a single
sentence, that would be it." What did Pirsig mean by this statement?

5. Keith Gillette <gillette@iglobal.net>

How does the Metaphysics of Quality come down on the issue of abortion?

6. Taner Akdeniz <akdeniz@venus.aselsan.com.tr>

If every classification or identification effort puts Dynamic quality into
a static form, can the universe have more than one Dynamic quality?

Please consider these entries but hold your votes until I post the
CALL FOR VOTES tomorrow.

Cheers,
Keith
