They have offered to be MENTORS; not commanders. Many disintegrative leaders have INSISTED that others: 1. Obey them. 2. Trust them. 3. Respect them. 4. Do as they do. 5. Avoid as they do. 6. Believe as they do. 7. Refrain as they do. 8. Reject as they do. 9. Exclude as they do. Disintegrative leaders have sought to be in control and are preoccupied with who is in control; or who appears to be in control. Integrative religious leaders have NOT sought to be in control and have NOT been preoccupied with who is in control. They have revealed that nobody is truly in control---appearances not withstanding.
