The efficiency with which the community/members work to solve such problems will depend greatly upon the integrity of the community/members. If the community/members are engaged in internal misunderstandings, communication blockages, contradictory purposes, and conflict the community/members will not effectively deal with the practical problems. Effort expended in dealing with fragmentation (non-integrity) problems will not be available for dealing with practical problems. An army which is divided by internal strife is unlikely to win any battles against an energy army with integrity. Community integrity is impossible in the absence of any common understanding within the community/members. Common understanding is impossible in the absence of meaningful emotional/intellectual dialogue. Such dialogue is impossible in the absence of a feeling of security that entering into it will be fulfilling in the broadest sense. Thus it will be in the community interest to seek to assure members of the community of security in emotional/intellectual dialogue which is open and honest. It is counter-productive to inhibit emotional/intellectual honesty. People should never be punished (formally or informally) for what they feel or think---nor for being honest in emotional/intellectual dialogue. Community efficiency will be augmented by learning how to distinguish between emotional/intellectual dialogue and other behavior which by it's very nature intrudes essentially upon appropriately guaranteed citizen rights. The immature may feel that in certain instances emotional/intellectual dialogue intrudes upon their rights not to be challenged and made uncomfortable. Then such presumed rights need to be carefully examined and challenged---for respecting them can quickly undermine community efficiency. Communities cannot meaningfully survive if they permit their energies to be wasted upon avoidable internal conflicts which reduce the efficiency with which they solve practical problems.
