%CONSISTENCY 771029
Consistency is often thought of in only logical,
intellectual and rational terms. Integrity is not
occasioned by that kind of consistency, since it may
involve paradoxical affirmations of affective, emotional,
subjective, and sensual perceptions and relationships. The
exclusive valuing of consistency within a narrow domain---
occasions the generation of inconsistency within broader
domains---and so the undermining of personal and societal
integrity.
When childhood taboos enslave adults,it is not enough
for us to develop logically consistent rational systems
which transcend the taboos and the guilt occasioned by
them. Such logical consistency is by itself impotent. The
transcendence of the holistic, inconsistency of taboos,
punishment, guilts excommunication and other coercive
subjective technologies is possible only through holistic
integrity---not through,and substitute exclusivity which
involves holistic inconsistencies; no matter how
sophisticated, objective, logical, rational, intellectual,
consistent and/or authoritative the substitute exclusivity
is. The integrity of holistic consistency does not come
through exclusivity of any kind.
The transcendence of holistic inconsistency is most
helpfully done by persons of personal integrity. Exclusive
people are not likely to value such people of personal
integrity---so they are not hired by the exclusive
schools, churches, service agencies, clubs, businesses,
etc. to serve in positions of executive and administrative
leadership. People who specialize in narrower forms of
consistency are highly valued and when they are hired they
promote their various forms of exclusivity according to
their idolatrous values. They are unable to perceive the
value of having subordinates who have broader and deeper
perceptions into holistic relationships than they
themselves have. Such holistic persons are threatening to
specialists who value their exclusivity---and so such
persons must not be permitted to occupy positions of
authority and influence which might challenge the
specialists narrow forms of consistency.
