%THREAT SURVIVAL PERSONAL COMMUNAL INTEGRITY HONEST 931111

     Threats to survival threaten some kind of  integrity.
The  wise  response to a threat depends upon what kind  of
integrity  is threatened.   Many responses to  threats  to
survival  become themselves the treat to the  survival  of
another integrity---especially if there is confusion about
just  what  is  threatened;  what  kind  of  integrity  is
threatened.    The  response to a threat to some  kind  of
integrity   may  itself  further  threaten  the  kind   of
integrity which was initially threatened; either direction
or indirectly.

     Virtually all  threats to one kind of human integrity
are threats to other  kinds of integrity as well,  in some
indirect  way,  because disintegration of any  kind  is  a
threat to other kinds of integrity.   We need to take care
of that in responding to one kind of threat we do not make
matters  worse  by engaging  in  attitudes,   assumptions,
convictions  and  patterns of behavior which  heighten the
over-all threat to personal and communal integrity.
