Exclusive concerns tend to become ultimate concerns and occasion idolatry in the name of excellence. Excellence is defined without regard for the ultimate consequences of ultimately valuing such excellence---and people who fail to worship such excellence are excommunicated. Exclusive clubs and professions thus form under the leadership of the most excellent specialists in exclusive concerns. Such specialists succeed in their narrow-minded ventures by excluding from consideration concerns which are complimentary to their exclusive concerns. Their limited successes are the result of intense concentration of all their attention and efforts upon very limited goals. Their successes in their narrow- minded ventures are not an indication of competency to succeed in broad-minded holistic ventures. They can succeed only in narrow-minded ventures of the kinds in which they have succeeded. Their exclusive concerns blind them to holistic concerns about the comprehensive consequences of narrow-minded ventures. People who have specialized in exclusive concerns can not extricate themselves from their exclusive prisons by the use of their specialized skills and knowledge. They can not remedy the tragic situations created by their narrow-minded ventures---through the application of their specialized skills and knowledge. Medicine which has occasioned an allergic reaction---will not cure the allergic reaction, no matter how proud the inventor of that medicine is of its potential for good in the service of humanity! Exclusive excellence is not the cure for any estrangement occasioned by alienative competency. Exclusive concerns occasion dis-eases which can be healed only by inclusive concerns of people who have grown up with holistic perceptions. The healing processes are occasioned more by the inclusive concerns of such integrative people, than by their technologies. Their technologies when divorced from their inclusive concerns become tools of alienation, not tools of reconciliation. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
