How can we discern-the-boundaries BETWEEN how-our- own-experiences-are-MEDIATED-by-what-we-believe about-ourselves-and-our-relationships (with objects and/or with people) AND how-our- own-experiences-are-MEDIATED-by-what-is- real-apart-from-ourselves-and-our-own- relationships (with objects and/or with people)? How are we to discern the role which may-be- played by "The Domination System"; if IT is in fact real-apart-from-ourselves-and-our-own- relationships (with objects and/or with real-people)? If "The Domination System" is real and interested in dominating how-our-own-experiences-are-MEDIATED- by-what-we-believe about-ourselves-and-our- relationships (with objects and/or with people) --- how are we to understand and subvert its domination at-that-level-of-our-being-who- we-are-and-might-possibly-become-with- each-other-person-we-relate-to? How are we to understand and subvert how "The Domination System" --- BIASES-our-own-experiences-of- ourselves and-of-our- relationships-with- each-other. Can we be "objective" about ourselves and our relationships? If not, what is the BEST that we can do WITHOUT BIAS? (c) 2005 by Paul A.
