  %PARADIGM EXCLUDE BLOCK INTERPRET PERVERT COLLUDE 921017

     Because  of  our collusive fear of the  truths  which
might undermine the exclusive aspects of our collusions we
often protect our misleading representations by:

     1.  Pretending  that  all  important  truths  CAN  BE
REPRESENTED ONLY  within  the constraints of the languages
which are regarded with respect by participants within our
collusions.    For   example,   compulsively   objectivist
scientists   and  technocrats  regard  as   professionally
unimportant those truths which are best expressed  through
emotions, dance, music, poetry, art,  sculptury,  stories,
novels,  cinema,  etc.  Such truths are dangerous  because
they  are  not under the systematic control  of  regulated
authorities who are under the influence of the collusions;
and  so might expose the dishonesties of  the  collusions.
Such   dangerous  truths  are  not  openly  and   honestly
published  or discussed  within  the  formal  contexts  of
professional training programs.  It is inconceivable  that
they should be!

     2.  Pretending that  those  truths   which  are  best
expressed through emotions,  dance,  music, poetry,   art,
sculptury,  stories,     novels,    cinema,   etc.     are
unreliable, unverifiable,   biased,   or otherwise NOT  AS
WORTHY   OF  ATTENTION---as   are  those  which   can   be
shown   through  collusive  consensus   to  be   reliable,
verifiable,     and  unbiased.     Only   people  who  are
thoroughly   indoctrinated through  extensive  training in
the  knowledge,    skills, attitudes,   perceptions,   and
beliefs  of  the collusion are qualified to  assess  which
truths are reliable, verifiable, and unbiased.

     3.  Letting incoherent, unarticulated and un-analyzed
FEARS MOTIVATE THE BLOCKAGE,  inhibition, perversion,  and
misinterpretation    of    truths   which    expose    the
disintegrative   aspects  of  our  exclusive  patterns  of
behavior.   Our emotions which are not openly and honestly
expressed and discussed cannot be  dealt with wisely,  for
we are uninformed and ignorant of them if we do not openly
and honestly express  and discuss  our emotions.  Yet  the
professional  rules of many collusions demand that we  let
our  fears rule us;  and let  them  and  block,   inhibit,
pervert and misinterpret  those  truths  which  expose the
disintegrative  aspects of our exclusivities.  We  do  not
fear  the  disintegrative aspects of our fears  which  are
born  of our emotional ignorance;  as much as we fear  the
emotional truths which would unmask our collusions.

     4.  Failing   to  confront,   attend  to,    discuss,
research, analyze,  and discuss signs that suggest that we
are paralyzed by collusive games of mutual self deception.
The  hypothesis that we are so paralyzed is  a  reasonable
hypothesis.   Why not test the hypothesis to see if it  is
supported by evidence? Are there signs which would support
the hypothesis?   Are the people  who  take the hypothesis
seriously more integrative,  or more disintegrative;  than
are the people who reject the hypothesis without giving it
any time for thought and open and honest discussion?

                                                                                                                               
                         (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in      
                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
