                            %ALIENATION BEING ALONE 850413

     The  alienated person or group is alone,  but not  by
choice.   Sometimes it is good to be alone.  It is evil to
be  forced to be alone.   Alienation is being forced to be
alone through rejection, banishment, excommunication, etc.
Alienation can be cured by acceptance by people with power
who are different than you are.   To be accepted by people
without power,  or who share your alienation does not cure
the alienation.

     Alienated  people  often  create their  own  isolated
realities   by  acting  as  if  their  visions,    dreams,
fantasies,   etc.   are  really  real.    Sometimes  their
realizations  are creative and substantial.    Other  time
their  realizations fly in the face of integrity  and  are
the  creations  of  a game of mutual  self  deception,   a
collusion.    The difference between creative realizations
and  collusions  can not be told from within a  collusion;
i.e.,  by alienated people.   It can not be told by people
who  are  trapped  within  a  competing  collusion.    The
assessment can be made only by those people with the power
to transcend all collusions through reconciliation, grace,
love, forgiveness, dialogue, vulnerability and intimacy.

     Ignorance  is  not  one of the  means  to  salvation.
Being deaf, blind, and dumb does not help one to be saved.
Whatever   blocks   open  and  honest  dialogue   promotes
ignorance and forces people to be more alone,   alienated,
estranged;  not by choice.   When so alone people tend  to
create their own realities,  realities which may not be in
concert  with  the  realities of  varieties  of  different
people.    Such  alienation  leads  to   misunderstanding,
frustration, conflict, and violence.
