     %REPRESSION RESURRECTION ARTICULATION INSIGHTS 880922

     In   the  collusive  community  insights  which   are
essential to personal and communal integrity are repressed
and are not  available  to  the conscious conversations of
the  members of the collusive  community.   Disintegrative
aspects   of   addictive  and  codependent  behavior   are
invisible.  To regain health the collusive community needs
to recognize the  need  for  the resurrection of repressed
insights and the  public articulation of them so that they
may be the focus of communal conversations.

     To  resurrect  insights requires a  reversal  of  the
processes  of  repression.    In  repression  of  insights
members of a collusive community are motivated to put  out
of   mind  those  insights  which  threaten  the  dominant
collusions   of  their  community.    In  resurrection  of
insights  members  of  a collusive community  need  to  be
motivated  to  charitably focus  upon  tentative  insights
which barely come to the level of consciousness,   to play
with them  to try to find   and  articulate  any repressed
truths  to which they might point.    In such resurrection
individuals may articulate tentative insights so that they
can consider them and converse with others to see if  they
are  genuinely  integrative  insights.    The  process  of
repression  must  be reversed,   in order to  reverse  the
process   of  disintegration  of  personal  and   communal
integrity. Therein they may be reborn.

     In a collusive community efforts to achieve consensus
tend  to  become coercive in ways which  repress  creative
insights which threaten the collusion.  Consensus building
may be rationalized  as  being integrative, getting people
to work together.   Convergent thinking which  is coercive
is not integrative.  The process of resurrecting repressed
insights needs to reverse the process of coercive building
of  consensus,  and instead  encouraging  divergent-honest
creative  thinking which will help the community transcend
the violence of the collusion.
