    Many ideals,  values and other positive realities  can
be   perverted   and/or   manipulated   in   support    of
disintegrative   goals.     Conceptions/images   of   such
realities    may   be   perverted   to   facilitate    the
conceptions/images being used in support of disintegrative
goals.    Such  perverted conceptions/images  confuse  the
nature of essentially integrative ideals, values and other
positive realities.  Generating confusion is often central
to such perversions.

    When  a  hammer is used in a murder, the hammer is not
perverted in any essential way;  it is misused in a tragic
way---but it is not itself changed,  even though attitudes
toward the hammer may be changed.

    When  ideals,  values,  love,  honesty,  charity,  and
similar   other  positive  realities  are  perverted---the
conceptions/images  of  them  are perverted  so  that  the
nature  of the realities are confused.   It is as  if  the
nature   of   the  hammer  used  in  a  murder  had   been
changed/confused.  After ideals,  values,  love,  honesty,
charity,  and other similar positive  realities have  been
perverted it is more difficult to regard  them clearly and
helpfully.

    Evil intentions,  relationships and processes  pervert
ideals, values, love,  honesty, charity, and similar other
positive  realities---in the process of using the positive
realities   as  tools  in  alienative  relationships   and
processes.

    How  can  the perversion of  ideals,   values,   love,
honesty,   charity and similar other positive realities be
recognized    as   being   different   from    integrative
affirmations and  incarnations of them?    Perversions  of
positive realities lead  to  alienation,   disintegration,
misunderstanding,   resentment,   anger,    condemnations,
judgmentalism---rather     than     to     reconciliation,
integration,     mutual   understanding,     appreciation,
affection,   support,  and reconciliation.  Their perverse
fruits are sour rather than sweet when the overall pattern
which follows perversion is considered as a whole.

    We need to be careful not to accept all  presentations
of  ostensibly good ideals,  values,  love,  honesty,  and
charity, as being what they seem to be;  especially within
collusive  communities  and organizations where  addictive
and codependent tendencies have become dominant.
