Such coerced conformity undermines communal integrity. When communal standards demand dishonesty about: self, other, and relationships between self and other; the standards lack integrity and the standards undermine the integrities of communities and their members. Promoting and requiring conformity rarely engenders personal or communal integrity; and often leads to personal and communal disintegration. People who fear differences, diversity and complementary ideals --- are ill-at-ease with creativity, growth, change, reforms --- and resist helpful/healthy revolutions. People who are driven/guided by fear are NOT worthy of respect, trust and honor as leaders --- if their fears are their only motivations and guides. Often such ill-at-ease people are dis-eased; the victims of: disease, mental illnesses, addictions, codependence, collusions, psychological/spiritual injuries, psychotic visions/dreams. We need to be aware of and to beware of such people and their leadership. (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
