     When we are preoccupied with ourselves and each other                                                            
as isolated individuals  who are to be:  compared, judged,                                                                     
praised,    condemned,   accepted,   rejected,   included,         
excluded,  excommunicated, banished, etc. --- we are bound                       
to  approach each other in alienative ways which will lead      
to both personal and communal disintegration.                                                                
                                                                                                                               
     When  we  are  truly committed  to  and  involved  in                                                                     
seeking  ways to facilitate and promote both personal  and      
communal integrity  ---  we are likely  to  approach  each                                                                
other in reconciling ways which will lead to both personal      
and       communal:       integration,        cooperation,                                                                
acceptance,  inclusion, communions, affection,   intimacy,         
shalom,  and peace in God's Love.                                           
                                                                                                                               
     People  who  are preoccupied with the first kinds  of                                                                    
ways  ---   often  think that they are  committed  to  and      
involved in  the second kind of way ---   but  are blinded      
by  their  preoccupations,    attitudes,     patterns   of                                                                     
thought    and patterns   of  behavior.      They   cannot                                                       
recognize    the  consequences  of  the  ways  which  they      
have  chosen.    They need to accept   the   possibilities         
offered   by  Love  which  transcends    all    of   their                                           
preoccupations,   attitudes,   patterns of  thought,   and                                                                     
patterns of behavior.
