In defense of their egocentric concerns they exclude from their consciousness, thoughts, considerations and communities --- whatever and whomever it is that they perceive to be the generators of their fears: ENEMIES-TRAITORS DIS-LOYAL FRIENDS DIFFERENT-PEOPLE STRANGE-IDEAS STRANGE-IDEALS STRANGE-VALUES STRANGE-LANGUAGES STRANGE-ENVIRONS STRANGE-RELATIONS STRANGE-PRINCIPLES STRANGERS COMPLEMENTARY Xs CHANGES GROWTH COMPLEXITY SPECTRUMS PARADOXES AMBIGUITY UNCERTAINTY CONFUSION TOLERANCE Such defensive maneuvers in tragic ways generate more fears and intensify existing fears --- because the defensive maneuvers engender increasing levels of alienation, ignorance, prejudice, confusion, and isolation. That expands the realms of what is strange, different, and threatening. Domineering and immature people who are allowed to lead and dominate other people --- thereby augment the community of immature domineering people. However, attempting to prevent their immature domineering patterns of behavior through the exercise of concentrations of any powers to coerce, threaten or dominate --- will also augment the community of immature domineering people. Domination cannot be eliminated through domination which is engendered by unmitigated fears. Love mitigates fear by "casting-out" the occasion for fear. Lovers work together in cooperative ways to create healthy communities of people who are "growing up" by expanding their awareness and consciousness of diverse people's: experiences, perceptions, thoughts, feelings, beliefs, hopes, aspirations, dreams, visions, etc. Lovers work towards inclusive living, rather than towards building exclusive fortifications. Lovers are responsive, rather than defensive; hopeful, rather than fearful; inclusive, rather than exclusive. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
