     Consider the notion  that  the cosmology,  mythology,
laws,  commandments,  and scriptures of one period of time
and  one geographic area SHOULD DOMINATE all cultures  and
at  all times in the future.    What questions need to  be
asked in response to that notion?  Consider the following;
remembering that DOMINATION is central to the notion:     
                                                          
     1.  Why should there be that kind of DOMINATION?     
                                                          
     2.  What  motivation  is  there on the  part  of  the
DOMINEERING  people  who  seek to impose  that  notion  on
others?                                                   
                                                          
     3.  How  do  the  promoters of the DOMINATION  notion
justify  the notion?     In  terms  of  what transcendent:
assumptions,  attitudes, ideals, values, principles,  etc?
Can  they make a good case that they are NOT motivated  by
self-interests,  desires  to augment their powers,  or the
worship of false gods/idols?    Are the DOMINEERING people
to  be  presumed  innocent until proven guilty?     Is  it
reasonable  to  be skeptical of the  DOMINEERING  people's
motives?                                                  
                                                          
     4.  What  are  the typical kinds of behaviors of, and
interpersonal  relationships with, the DOMINEERING  people
who  promote  the above notion?    What are their  fruits?
Sweet?  Sour?  Pleasing to differing peoples?             
                                                          
     5.  Might   the   above  notion   be  functioning  to
serve  the interests of "The Domination System"?          
                                                          
     These  are  not  questions which are to  be  answered
authoritatively  by  some domineering people.   These  are
questions  which  ALL  people  need  to  ask   themselves,
consider  the  evidence  which  they  have  and  may   yet
perceive, and draw their own conclusions in the absence of
domineering influences,  coercion and threats of violence.
Otherwise   reasonable,   prudent  and  wise  people   can
reasonably  come  to  the conclusion that  truth  has  not
prevailed yet.                                            
                                                                                                                               
                         (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in      
                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
