People often fail to distinguish-between INTEGRITIES, and the ACCUMULATIONS-OF: goods, possessions, laws, rules, regulations, prescriptions, proscriptions, formulas, formalities, rituals, doctrines, truths, institutions, arts, sciences and technologies --- which-are-often-associated-with well-disciplined integrities-and-communications. People who fail in the above ways --- often make the further mistake of assuming that by trying to achieve the above kinds of ACCUMULATIONS-OF-THINGS --- they can thereby demonstrate personal and/or communal integrities --- at the expense of other people and communities; i.e. at the expense of other's integrities. Such attempts are futile; because the attempts lack integrity in failing to understand the difference between integrity and "accumulations" at others' expense; i.e. at others' loss of integrity. When possessions/accumulations of "goods" are stolen; through the exercise of "superior" powers, forces, truths, goods, laws, rules, regulations, rituals, prescriptions, proscriptions, formalities, etc. --- many forms of integrities are sacrificed to the idols of the accumulators who are: greedy, egocentric, selfish, narcissistic, arrogant, self-righteous, rude, insensitive, coercive, violent, mean, insignificant, meaningless, hopeless, fearful, domineering, dishonest, misleading, collusive, addictive, and/or degenerate in their life-styles. The above tragic cycles of degeneration cannot be terminated through the destruction of those whose behaviors are most degenerate --- nor through the denigration of them as degenerate people. The above tragic cycles of degeneration can be terminated only through diverse demonstrations of contrasting true forms of personal and communal integrations and integrities --- in ways which demonstrate gracious sharings of the sweet fruits of personal and communal integrations and integrities which are: generous, Love- centered, hospitable, friendly, humble, gracious, kind, sensitive, liberating, integrative, sympathetic, significant, hopeful, graceful, healing, honest, honorable, trust-worthy, healthy, and integrative in their life-styles; in contrast to the characteristics of the above tragic ways-of-degeneration.
