     Alienative   paradigms   are  patterns  of  thoughts,
feelings,  attitudes, perceptions,  beliefs,  convictions,
ideals  and values  which  lead  their  incarnations  into
unresolved    alienative   personal   relationships    and
conflicts.

     Fundamentalists  are victims of alienative  paradigms
as they selectively  seek roots in their pasts by which to
heighten  the distinctions between their goodness  on  the
one  hand,  and the evil of those whom they perceive as  a
threat to their personal and communal integrity.

     Compulsively  objective  scientists  are  victims  of
alienative  paradigms  as  they seek to transcend bias  by
avoiding reflexive relationships, intimacy,  and prayerful
sexuality.

     Workaholic businessmen of great financial success are
victims of alienative paradigms as they work to manipulate
people  to extract as much money from them  as the  market
and rules will allow.

     Addicts and their supportive codependents are victims
of alienative paradigms which demand they they dishonestly
seek  to  achieve  the  impossible  as  a prerequisite  to
conditional acceptance, affirmation and love.

     People  who have willfully eaten of the tree  of  the
knowledge  of the difference between good people and  evil
people  are victims of alienative paradigms which  require
that  they  live  to  conform  to:   rules,   regulations,
prohibitions,   mandates,  moral codes,  ethical  systems,
expectations,   regulations and collusive games of  mutual
self  deception.    They  perceive  the  right   kind   of
conformity as the means to salvation.

     It  is  important  that  all  victims  of  alienative
paradigms  learn  to listen to each other,  and to give to
each  other  the gift of secure contexts within  which  to
listen to each other tell their own personal stories,  and
be  sympathetically heard;  and to thereby help each other
heal,   grow,   and  regain  both  personal  and  communal
integrity.

                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
