            %COLLUSIVE CONFUSION DIVERSION LIBERATE 860426

     Participants  in  collusions  do  not  need  to  tell
outright lies.  It is enough to confuse issues.  Fusion is
the  fastening  together  of  different  things.    In   a
collusion  participants fuse together what does not belong
together,  so  that  in  the  confusion  clear  vision  is
impossible  and  the truth that liberates  is  undermined.
When one  can not recognize important differences  because
of  confusion,  it is impossible to clearly see the  truth
that liberates and liberal education is impossible.

     Collusions    also    make    effective    use     of
overspecialization which undermines balance.  Confusion is
generated  by  inappropriate  fusions of  ideas,   ideals,
values, people, concepts,  principles,  etc.  which do not
belong together.  Through specialization integrative steps
may  be  avoided so as  to keep people from  truths  which
liberate.     Intensive   specialization  leads   to   the
development of respected experts who are incapable of wise
behavior  for  lack  of balance in their  vision.    Their
vision  is tunnel vision which  leads  to the division  of
what  belongs together.   It is not necessary to tell lies
to protect a collusion,  for confusion  and  division will
serve the purposes of the collusion equally well.

     Collusions   may   also  achieve  their  purposes  by
perversion of language through the  confusion  of  symbols
and ideas,  fusing symbols and ideas so as to exclude from
communication ideas which threaten the collusion.  In this
way  symbols which point to threatening new ideas  can  be
re-defined so as to point to non-threatening old ideas for
which  other words already exist,   making  synonyms where
they did not exist before.   Through such an inappropriate
fusion  the  language  can  be  impoverished  and   vision
perverted.   With an impoverished language people's vision
is  impoverished and their ability  to  cooperate  through
communication   is  impoverished.    People  who  can  not
communicate  clearly with clearly defined symbols can  not
escape from the prisons of collusive games of  mutual self
deception.   Deception  can  be  the  result of confusion,
specialization and language impoverishment.
