     In a profound sense a "sanctuary" is a place and/or a
community within which a vulnerable-person may escape from
domineering-people who are "out-to-get"   the  vulnerable-
person.  A sanctuary is a safe-haven-from-the-storms-of-a-
domineering    and/or    addictive   community.

     Often   domineering-people   have   been   hired   or
volunteered to serve on  a police-force.   For this reason
church-sanctuaries have often  been  safe-havens-from-the-
storms-of-domineering-communities.

     Such sanctuaries have often been honored by the wider
community  out  of  a  recognition  that the health of the
wider  community  often  depends  upon  the  existence  of
honored  sanctuaries within which  vulnerable  people  can
regain  personal and communal health by receiving the gift
of  the  freedom to be safely vulnerable within  open  and
honest  dialogue.

     Within such a sanctuary a rebellious person  may find
their  way back to communal  respect  and support which is
balanced  and  mutual  ---   to the benefit  of  both  the
vulnerable person and the vulnerable community.
