               %COMMUNAL FULFILLMENT WITH INTEGRITY 861116

     The  concept of communal fulfillment is  nonsense  to
the compulsive objectivists  who  has  carried objectivity
thoughtlessly into the world of personal relationships and
let objectivity  depersonalize/objectify all relationships
among  persons.    To  such a person even the  concept  of
personal   fulfillment   is   nonsense,   since   personal
fulfillment  is  not  an  objective  reality  subject   to
confirmation  by  persons who are compulsively oriented to
objectivity and the behaviorist approach  to  people. Such
people  are  subject  to a limiting paradigm,  victims  of
their ideals and  value judgments which are disintegrative
of personal relationships. Such ideals and value judgments
were not made in a thoroughly objective way, yet lead to a
thoroughly  objective reality in which genuinely  personal
relationships are not real according to the rules,  taboos
and  collusions which  characterize the reality  which  is
"discovered".

     Communal  fulfillment with integrity entails personal
fulfillment  with integrity,  and vice versa;  one is  not
possible  without  the other,  neither is  an  exclusively
objective   reality,   even  though  both  are  real   and
meaningful  to the participants who are genuinely  present
as   persons   of   integrity  within  and   through   the
fulfillments.    By communal affirmations of all  that  is
essential   to   personal  fulfillment   with   integrity,
communities  enjoy communal fulfillment with integrity  of
the  possibilities for communal integrity.    By  personal
affirmations   of  all  that  is  essential  to   communal
fulfillment with integrity,  individual persons may  enjoy
personal  fulfillment with integrity of the  possibilities
for personal integrity.  Withholding affirmations from the
complementary other  leads  to disintegration. Fulfillment
with integrity is  possible only in balanced ways,  not in
exclusive  ways.  "perfection"  of one special kind at the
expense   of  a  complementary  "other"   leads  to   dis-
integration, not to integrity.
