Human behavior flows from many interacting
consideration suggested by words above in the title of
this essay. The effects of human behaviors flow in many
ways from the behaviors themselves; often in ways which
are understood only in part --- if at all. The effects of
human behaviors may flow from:
1. Natural law; e.g. when a fragile piece of glass
falls onto a very hard surface from a great height, it
breaks.
2. Human belief; e.g., human expectations that human
performing a particular ceremony will bring healing of a
dis-ease.
3. Human attitudes; e.g., contentious people and
behaviors often lead to human dis-eases.
4. Human approaches; e.g., how people approach each
other on first meeting often leads to human expectations
which are self-fulfilling --- what people expect happens
because people expect it to happen.
5. Group dynamics; e.g., in mob psychology where
communal expectations work in concentrated/coherent ways
to bring out certain patterns of behavior.
6. Alienative dynamics in which certain kinds of
behavior lead to break downs in communication --- and so
to dysfunctional patterns of behavior due to ignorance,
confusion, prejudice, anger, and desires for revenge.
7. Commands or rituals which are worshipped as being
of ultimate importance in idolatrous ways which in turn
lead to tragic outcomes through alienative dynamics.
8. Communal traditions which are observed in
integrative ways which lead to personal and communal
integrity through cooperative patterns of behavior.
9. Communal focusing of attention and efforts in
cooperative ways which lead to the achievement of priority
goals considered and chosen in prayerful ways --- and
worked on in technically effective systematic ways.
10. Accidental juxtapositions of actions taken and
happenings which occur without any real connection between
the two.
Life would be simpler than it is if each effect
flowed from just one cause; but such is not the case.
Often many causes are inter-woven in how they lead to any
given effect. This makes it difficult to sort out how we
should behave so as to best influence what happens.
However, such difficulties seem not to stand in the way of
some people being very sure that they know for sure what
other people should do to insure that the right effects
will follow without fail.
