    %OBJECT SCIENTIST RESEARCH ADDICT CONTROL CHILD 900610

     Compulsively  objective  scientists  are   constantly
seeking to gain more knowledge of the universe around them
through research and analysis into its constituent  parts.
They  seek  to be comprehensive in their understanding  so
that they will be able to understand,  predict and control
all  parts.   Yet,  in a strange way their program is  not
comprehensive and lacks integrity.

     According  to the requirements of the paradigm  which
dominates  the  lives of most scientists they are  not  to
turn  their  analytic skills and their personal  attention
upon themselves, or  upon the personal relationships among
participants involved in their  efforts,  or  upon   their
relationships   with   objective   realities.  They  leave
themselves  and how they work and interrelate  outside the
scope of their efforts to seek meaningful understanding.

     Scientists  usually  avoid  reflexive  dialogue   and
publications.     They   rarely  discuss  and/or   publish
observations  relating to  the  central  role  which  they
themselves   play  in  the  conception  of  the  universal
conceptions which are born of their efforts to  understand
the  universe of which they are in their own experience  a
central part.   They do not seek to understand the part of
the universe which is always closest to themselves.

     This  peculiar behavior on the part  of  compulsively
objective scientists is similar to the behavior of addicts
of all kinds.    It entails dishonest games of mutual self
deception    with   all   the   associated     confusions,
insecurity,    defensiveness,   manipulations,   lack   of
humility, depersonalization, pretentiousness, etc.   which
is   characteristic   of  addicts  and  their   supportive
codependents.
