     Effective ways of moderating fragmentive extremism:      
                                                                                                                               
     1.  Will emphasize ways in which different  and often      
apparently contradictory ideals,  values and  perspectives                                         
are mutually complementary in paradoxical ways.      
                                                                                                                               
     2.  Will focus upon: balance, mutuality, cooperation,                            
understanding,  listening,  sharing-experiences,  honesty,                                   
dialogue  and  security ---  enjoyed as the freedom to  be                                                                     
safely vulnerable.                                                                                                             
                                                                                                                               
     3.  Will not be vulnerable to subversion or diversion                                                                     
by fragmentive extremists.                                                                                                     
                                                                                                                               
     4.  Will  not  be motivated or guided  as  extremists                                                                     
are.                                                                                                                           
                                                                                                                               
     5.  Will  not surrender to fragmentive extremists  or                                                                     
be dominated by them.                                                     
                                                                                                                               
     6.  Will describe openly, honestly and graciously the                                                                  
consequences of fragmentive extremism;  and deal with them                                                                     
prudently, openly, honestly and graciously.                                                                  
                                                                                                                               
     7.  Will not make use of means which usually engender                                                                     
increased:   alienation,  suspicion,  distrust,   secrecy,                                        
defensiveness,    anger,   resentment,   coercion   and/or                                                                     
violence.           
                                                                                                                               
     8.  Will help people to transcend the collusive games                                                   
of  mutual  self  deception within which  they  and  those 
around them  are  imprisoned  --- and by  which  they  are                                                                     
blinded to the reality of what  they are doing and what is                                                                     
happening to them.                                                                                                             
                                                                                                                               
     9.  Will  acknowledge the importance  of  paradoxical                                                                     
truths   and  of  humility  ---   in  the  face  of  human                                            
limitations and circumstances.                                                                                                 
                                                                                                                               
     10. Will distinguish between dilemmas for which there                                                                     
are  no  technical solution,  and problems  which  can  be                                                  
solved   through   the   use   of   sophisticated    human                                
technologies.                                                  
                                                                                                                               
     11. Will  deal openly and honestly with spectrums  of                                                                  
possibilities  and alternatives;  not just with  either/or                                                                     
dichotomies in black/white,  good/evil,   truth/falsehood,                                       
right/wrong, friend/enemy, etc.       
                                                                                                                               
     12. Will  not entail any forms of exclusivity used as               
means for maintaining control ---  for exclusivity so used                       
is    alienative   and   leads   to   fragmentation    and                                        
disintegration.                                                                   
                                                                                                                               
     13. Will  focus  more  upon  descriptions  than  upon                                                                     
prescriptions and proscriptions --- for the latter lead to                                                                     
the  use of forms of exclusivity as means for  maintaining                       
control  ---   and  so to alienation,   fragmentation  and                                        
disintegration   of   integrative   persons   and    their                                                                 
integrative communities.                                                                
                                                                                                                               
                                                                                                                               
                         (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in      
                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
