Words above point in many ways to features of human
lives which lead to personal and communal disintegration.
It is particularly tragic when people accentuate
these features in efforts to be "good", "better", "law-
full", "respectable", "religious", "patriotic", "loyal",
"traditional", etc. Such accentuations are motivated by
and misguided by incoherent ideals, values,
principles, myths, and leaders. They flow from
and lead to confusion, prejudice, ignorance,
insensitivity, contentiousness, alienation, and broken
communications -- - often under the leadership of people
who are self- righteous, arrogant, and willing to use
coercion and/or violence to "make things be right".
Such misguided leaders often feel that they cannot
be right/righteous at the same time that another person
with whom they differ is right/righteous. Each often
feels that for them be right/righteousness the other must
be wrong/evil. If one asserts that they are
right/righteous; they believe that that assertion means
that they other must be wrong; because they each believe
that the others must be like themselves. Here the word
"must" may meaningfully carry the connotations of "a
certainty" and of "a categorical imperative".
