   %LOVE SINNER DESCRIBE REVEAL EXPOSE CLARIFY EVIL+950305
      %ARTICULATE DISCUSS TALK ABOUT EXPOSE UNCOVER 950305

     It  has been suggested that we should love the sinner
but hate the sin.  What truth is there to be found in this
suggestion?     What  misleading  suggestions  are  buried
therein?

     We often seek to avoid,  hide, repress,  suppress and
otherwise manipulate conflicts among our ideals/values and
friends/enemies.

     We may feel that conflicts are pre-existing realities
in the sense that objects pre-exist before we become aware
of them.   Or, we may feel that conflicts do not pre-exist
and come into existence as we come to perceive them.  Does
the tree falling in the person-less forest make a noise---
to the other creatures who are in the forest?
     Below put in place of  words such as:
     A.  Holy

     B.  Saved

     C.  Intelligent

     D.  Articulate

     E.  Spiritual

     Do conflicts between ideals/values:

     1.  Exist in the absence of  creatures?

     2.  Exist the presence of  creatures?

     3.  Exist in the absence of  persons?

     4.  Exist the the presence of  persons?


     We  need to be more aware of and be in dialogue  more
often about the roles which: articulation,  clarification,
discussion,  talking, revelations, exposures,  uncovering,
and other like activities play in modes of integration and
disintegration---which  flow from our conflicting  values,
ideals,   principles,  goals,  injunctions,  expectations,
visions, dreams, attitudes, assumptions, . . . . .
