      %DIALOGUE PEOPLE BEHAVIOR NOT RESPECTED ALIEN 930408

     Many time people get trapped by the belief that it is
appropriate  to cut off dialogue with people whose actions
they   do   not   and   cannot   respect.    They   regard
excommunication  as  an appropriate  punishment which will
occasion an  appropriate change in  the  behavior  pattern
which is not respected.  The belief  that  excommunication
will lead to more appropriate  behavior  is  a  misleading
belief.   Excommunication  leads inevitably to  alienation
between the excommunicators and the excommunicated, and so
leads to mis-under-standing,  to ignorance and to mistakes
made    due   to   alienation,     anger,     frustration,
misunderstanding,    and   ignorance.    The   idea   that
excommunication can  lead  to  integrative  behavior,   to
personal integrity,  or to communal integrity is absurd to
anybody  who  thinks  and talks about the idea openly  and
honestly.
