    The  perversion of virtues often entails pretense  and
dishonesty  regarding   virtually  all aspects  of  humane
being  and  consciousness.     The  number  and variety of
different forms of pretense give  witness to how pervasive
pretense   and   dishonesty   are, and  suggest  that  the
perversion of virtues must be correspondingly pervasive---
with perverted virtues being presented as if they were the
original virtues in the absence of any perversion.

    Often we pretend to KNOW, when in fact we do NOT KNOW.

Often we pretend NOT to KNOWN, when in fact we do KNOW.

    These  two  sentences  point  to  only  two  forms  of
pretense and dishonesty---pertaining to the word "KNOW".

    Most forms of pretense and dishonesty come in pairs of
the  above  two  forms;  one  affirmative  and  the  other
negative.

    Many  of  the common forms of pretense and  dishonesty
can be pointed to  by use of the above  paired  forms as a
"formula" in which the word KNOW is replaced by one of the
following words or it's related cognates:

    SEE                    DESIRE               FEAR

    HEAR                   WANT                 ANTICIPATE

    FEEL                   EXPECT               REGRET

    TASTE                  INTEND               REMEMBER

    SMELL                  INTUIT               FORGET

    PERCEIVE               ASSUME               QUESTION

    CONCEIVE               BELIEVE              ASSENT

    CREATE                 IMAGINE              ENVISION

    EXPERIENCE             RECOGNIZE            COMPETE

    SUCCEED                ACHIEVE              PERFECT

    WORK                   FAIL                 RELAX

    REST                   MEDITATE             PRAY

    LISTEN                 REQUEST              ASK

    We need to learn how to recognize the presentation  of
perverted   forms   of  virtues  which  are  presented  as
integrative forms  of  the virtues.   Often such  perverse
presentations entail deception and dishonesty of the forms
pointed to by the above possible multitude of paired forms
generated  by  insertion  of the above words and/or  their
cognates in the place of the word "know".   Our  collusive
games  of mutual self deception are so powerful,  that  we
may not be able to recognize what the forms point to, even
when  we  try  to recognize what it is that they might  be
pointing to.
