     We often are participants in evil relationships which
are characterized by:

     Alienation        Misunderstanding      Judgments

     Estrangement      Ignorance             Confusion

     Dishonesty        Collusions            Addictions

     Commandments      Prohibitions          Injunctions

     Exclusivity       Specialization        Imbalance

     Fanaticism        Arrogance             Manipulations

     Extremism         Self-righteousness    Controls

     It is the relationships in which we participate which
are evil. We can heal the evil relationships only with the
cooperation   of,   and  in  cooperation  with  the  other
participants, by whatever names we may call them: enemies,
terrorists, infidels, sinners, murderers, rapists, unclean
idolaters,    thieves,    robbers,   fornicators,    fags,
pornographers,    prostitutes,    pimps,    etc.      Evil
relationships  lead  to  evil  behavior  and   so to   our
conceptions of each other as evil people.   So long as  we
conceive each other to be evil people---so long we will be
unwilling  and  unable to cooperate  with  each  other  in
healing our evil relationships.

     We  are  conceived  by  our  relationships---be  they
sexual, non-sexual, familial, educational, scholarly, non-
scholarly,   corporate,  private,  political,   religious,
spiritual,  physical, addictive,  codependent,  collusive,
honest,   dishonest,  objective,  reflective,   reflexive,
prayerful,  evil, etc.    Our conceptions of each other as
being inherently "good" or inherently "evil" flow from our
relationships  which  may as relationships be  "good"   or
"evil".

     We  conceive our relationships AND are  conceived  by
our  relationships.   It is dishonest to pretend that  the
truth is simpler and more exclusively dichotomous than  we
often try to make the truth appear to be.
