                     %REFLEXIVE DECISIONS & ACTIONS 851201

     Decisions  are  reflexive,   point back to  self  and
self's   intentions;   they  are  not  objective  actions.
Actions  are reflexive,  pointing to what self regards  as
worthy of spending self's limited time upon.   Commitments
to take action are decisions which are also reflexive  for
similar reasons.

     Excommunicative judgments leading to the rejection of
persons  are  reflexive in that they are decisions not  to
spend time in dialogue with persons rejected;  pointing to
what  self  regards as worthy of spending  self's  limited
time upon.   Such judgments are not objective because they
have self-referential implications which motivate them.

     Logical  conclusions  drawn  according  to  carefully
reasoned  trains of thought seek to avoid the  wasting  of
time  in  order  to facilitate  efficient  use  of  self's
limited time in subsequent decisions, actions,  judgments,
evaluations  and setting of personal priorities.   In  all
such   cases   there  are  self-referential   implications
motivating the choices which are made.

     It  is  not  possible to avoid bias by trying  to  be
divorced,  separated,  from the focus of one's  attention.
Alienation  does  not lead to reliable knowledge,  but  to
ignorance.    Compulsive  objectification  thus  leads  to
ignorance and foolishness.
