Many   religious  leaders  deliberately  focus  upon
religious assumptions,   attitudes,   beliefs,  doctrines,
rituals, dogmas and such---which they AFFIRM and which are
UN-NECESSARILY   ALIENATIVE.     There  are   also   other
alternative religious  assumptions,  attitudes,   beliefs,
doctrines, rituals, dogmas and such---which they CRITICIZE
and which are INTENTIONALLY INTEGRATIVE.    Some religious
leaders are self-righteous,  arrogant and preoccupied with
issues  of  control  in  the manner of addicts  and  their
codependent  supporters.    They  are  not  focused   upon
promoting  personal and communal integrity.    They  often
promote  personal  and  communal  disintegration in tragic
ways.     Their   ideals   and  values   often   lead   to
disintegration---while   they   are  wearing   masks   and
vestments representing respectability and integrity.
