     Knowledge  and understanding which will be useful  to
us   in  resolving/transcending:   conflicts,    violence,
terrorism, war, addictions, codependencies, collusions and
the associated disintegrations of persons and  communities
--- will    of    necessity    be    reflexive   knowledge
and understanding;  because  it  will reflect back upon us
and our well-being.

     We will not be  able to detach meaningfully from such
reflexive knowledge and understanding. We will not be able
to   be  objective  about  such  reflexive  knowledge  and
understanding.   It  will be knowledge  and  understanding
which  will profoundly affect the power structures  within
our communities.  People who will  lose traditional powers
to   be  in  control  will  not  welcome  such   reflexive
knowledge; even though people who are seeking personal and
communal integrity will welcome such reflexive knowledge.

     It   follows   that  the  ways  of  people   who  are
compulsively objective in their approaches to problems and
dilemmas   will   not  lead  us  to  the   discovery   and
appreciation of knowledge and understanding which will  be
useful   to  us  in  resolving/transcending:    conflicts,
violence,  terrorism, war,   addictions,   codependencies,
collusions  and  the associated disintegrations of persons
and  communities.   It is  futile  to  go  to  experts-in-
objectivity  in  our  search  for  ways  to  respond  with
integrity to our dilemmas and persistent crises.
