in thread Monk ethics: Beauty vs. Power

Says tilly:
A few examples I have seen.
But none of those are examples of what I thought the original poster was asking about.

I was not saying that no engineering is better than any other engineering. The original question did not seem to me to be about implementation details.

    As I said in my original reply to Re: Monk ethics: Beauty vs. Power, it is a minor nit about one point in your reply. When you say that "All have their places" I would have to say, Only if some of those places are in the dustbin of history.

    I know you know better, but some relativists try to make ridiculous claims about all systems being equal. When such claims become an excuse to not learn how to be more effective, the possibility of such a misunderstanding is good to address. (Even if they are slightly off the original topic.)
