Often within communities different people are
developing and/or believing in mutually contradictory
theories of what leads to personal and communal integrity
and/or disintegration. Different kinds of people are prone
to develop and/or believe in different kinds of theories
of integrity and/or disintegration.
1. Some fearful people are prone to believe that in
the absence of centralized and/or formal controls ---
things will inevitably fall apart, disintegrate and chaos
will prevail. Such people are often preoccupied with
issues of control, discipline, law, orders, commandments,
prescriptions, proscriptions, formalities, and conformity.
They may believe that the world/universe/cosmos is
dominated by "fallen men", "people-in-original-sin",
"fate", "evil", "devils", "sin", "evil-desires", etc.
2. Some healthy people are pleased to believe that
in the presence of God's Love people come together,
cooperate, and integration will prevail. Such people are
often interested in peacemaking, conflict resolution,
reconciliation, healing, reconstruction, and liberation.
They believe that the world/universe/cosmos is pervaded
by the creative Holy Spirit of God Who Is Love --- in
continual creative activities within and through
people who are participating in-right-informal
relationships.
Often different people find it hard to understand
each other and/or each other's texts, favorite scriptures
and focal activities. From within their characteristic
perspectives and patterns of assumptions, attitudes and
beliefs --- those "other" "different" people make no
sense --- and are a threat to the integrity of the
whole community. The question is, which kind of
people are more likely to be participants in truly
integrative activities, and which are more likely to be
participants in alienative activities.
