Greetings!

It's the beginning of the month, votes are in, and it's time to start
discussion on the new topic, which is:

"Which are your favorite passages in *Lila* and why?"

        * Essays should be approximately 1000 words long
        * You may submit as many assignments as you want
        * Feedback on others' assignments is permitted
        * Write your name and student number in the top right corner

Have at! Just a few reminders (from the MOQ_FOCUS RULES):

Members may post only one message every 24 hours (except for PROGRAM topic
suggestions and voting in last week of month).

Members must answer the program question in every post and must not pursue
topics that may distract from the program.

Members must express themselves clearly, concisely and courteously. They
should not use HTML email nor send attachments.

What does the MOQ say about political conflicts?

I pose this question with the hope that we'll discuss the static/Dynamic
split, as in the case of the Zuni Shaman, and the difference between
social and intellectual values, as in the Hitler example. We could also
test the MOQ's ability to explain current events. It could go in lots of
directions.
