   %REQUIRED DISHONESTY DECEPTION SECRECY COLLUSION 921214

     Required   dishonesty  is  disintegrative  if  it  is
respected  and regarded as normal,   proper,   reasonable,
inevitable, etc.

     Required  dishonesty is not seriously  disintegrative
if  it  is NOT respected,  regarded  as  normal,   proper,
reasonable, inevitable, etc.

     How  disintegrative  requirements  of dishonesty  are
depends primarily upon how the community within which  the
requirements  occur  regard  the  requirements.   If   the
requirements  are regarded as part of the respected fabric
of    the   community---then    the    requirements    are
disintegrative.   If  the  requirements  are  regarded  as
threats  to  the personal and communal  integrity  present
within  the  community---then  the  requirements  are  not
likely to have profound disintegrative consequences.

     Participants in collusions,  addictions and collusive
games of mutual self deception impose upon each other  and
others  requirements of dishonesty,  deception,  pretense,
secrecy,  arrogance,  etc.  as part of the rules of  their
disintegrative games. One of their most important rules is
that the rules not be made open and clear.

     Dishonesty is often not just the act of an individual
violating the codes  of the community. Dishonesty is often
the  expression  of  the will of  the community  that  its
members  obey the communal collusive rules  which  require
dishonesty,  deception, pretense, secrecy and arrogance to
protect the collusions  which characterize  the community.
Such  a  community  and  its members  lack  integrity  and
disintegrate.
