        %EXCOMMUNICATE REJECT PUNISH COERCE VIOLATE 930206

     Usually, but not necessarily always, the following do
not  merit  respect.  Almost always it is wise to  ask  in
dialogues,   conversations  and  public discourse  whether
particular  examples of the following  do  merit  respect,
support and encouragement---formal,  informal,  overt,  or
tacit.  The words below are usually appropriately preceded
by the word "personal."

    REJECTION               EXCOMMUNICATION

    DISFELLOWSHIP           BANISHMENT

    PUNISHMENT              COERCION

    SHAMING                 GUILTING

    VIOLENCE                TABOO

    PRETENSE                DECEPTION

    DISHONESTY              MANIPULATION

    CONTROL                 COMPETITION

    ADDICTION               CODEPENDENCE

    ALIENATION              DISCIPLINE

    CONFORMITY              REGULATION

     In  each instance respect should not be granted  just
on the basis of tradition,  power,  expectations,   rules,
regulations, laws, etc. Basic questions about personal and
communal integrity need to be asked when each of the above
suggested  realities  is  encountered.  We  need  to  seek
honestly  to  recognize the consequences of  each  of  the
above  suggested realities as they are experienced by real
people in their daily lives.
