A community is disintegrating when members of the community are excommunicated because of sincere expressions of their convictions, beliefs and perceptions. A compulsive effort to get a community to appear to have integrity will disintegrate the community. Integrity is not achieved through coercion or violence of any form. A community disintegrates when it and its members put any achievement above personal and communal integrity in importance; for then integrity will be sacrificed to achieve that which is regarded as most important.
