                   %MORAL EXCELLENCE ADMINISTRATORS 790824

     Real  people  who view others with a balance of  love
and objectivity---know and acknowledge the human condition
of  alienation-sin,   of  human imperfection,  and of  the
futility of pretensions.  Legalists are dishonest in these
regards  and  administer  collusion  games of mutual  self
deception.    The perversions of legalism are more  severe
within  institutions which seek  to be known as centers of
moral  excellence;   e.g.,   religious  orders,   schools,
churches,    colleges,   hospitals,   and  other   service
organizations  that  depend upon public respect for  their
support.   Such  institutions tend to become perverted  by
secular   expectations  of  moral  excellence  which   are
encouraged by conformal legalists.   Legalists within such
institutions  tend  to  promote  moral  excellence  as   a
positive  quality---in  terms  of  which to  seek  secular
support.

     Promoters  of moral excellence must cope  with  human
rebellion  against  legalistic  attempts  to control human
behavior.    Healthy  people  rebel against controls,  and
become  alienated,  sinful.   Other factors contribute  to
alienation/sin.   Conformity to moralistic  rules does not
come  naturally,   and moral excellence is "won"   through
coercion  at  a  high  price;  the  loss  of  honesty  and
openness.    Sin/alienation is the price that is paid  for
moral excellence.

     Administrators of morally excellent institutions feel
a responsibility to maintain the  image of the institution
as morally excellent institution  in order that that image
may be used to elicit support from secular moralists.  For
this  reason honesty and openness are  not  high  priority
virtues.  Such administrators are not ultimately concerned
with  promoting  open  dialogue or  penetrating  listening
which might  expose  violations  of the law of Love.   The
administrators feel a responsibility to maintain the image
of  moral  excellence,  regardless  of the reality.    Any
member  of the community whose moral non-conformity  comes
to  light must be punished/excommunicated to maintain  the
image of moral excellence---even if  justice and love must
be  sold  into  bondage  or murdered  to  buy the power to
maintain  that  image  of  moral  excellence.    Thus  the
procedures for promoting moral excellence are neither just
nor loving,  no matter what the image makers try to  dress
them up as.  Lovers, however, can see through to the naked
truth.
