    The quality of our lives depends upon what we treat as
being  most real in the sense of being robust and able  to
endure in our lives in  spite of open and honest  dialogue
about our experiences of the realities which are most real
and important to us.

    Collusive  realities  which are the creations  of  our
collusive  games of mutual self deception are not real  in
any  robust way.   We are in constant fear that they  will
evaporate  in  the  presence of open and  honest  dialogue
about them within communities of integrity with people  of
integrity;  so  we  repress  such dialogue.  Thus  addicts
and  their codependent supporters try  to avoid/manipulate
such  communities   and  people---out of fear  that  their
addictive fixes  will  be found to be futile;  i.e.,   not
honestly robust.

    Our  most sophisticated objective realities are  often
creations  of  our sophisticated objective  paradigms  and
isolated scientists.    They are not robustly real to most
people. Very few people participate openly and honestly in
informed    discussion    of   our   most    sophisticated
scientists'  objective realities.   Such realities are not
highly  valued nor regarded as important realities by most
common people, and so are not robust in the face  of human
limitations in time, money, attention, and effort.

    Religious realities  are often the dishonest creations
of  the  fears  and manipulations of  addictive  religious
leaders---and so are not robustly real.   Such leaders  do
not   encourage  open  and  honest  dialogue  about  their
religious creations---out of fear that their creations are
not  robustly  real and will evaporate in the presence  of
the  work  of  the  Holy Spirit  within  open  and  honest
dialogue  among people of integrity within communities  of
integrity.
