It is "odd" that the contrasts are not traditionally well clarified in "even" handed ways. Perhaps the following odd and even statements may help some of us to see the contrasts more clearly: 1. "The-Domination-System" affirms that It-Is-Good To-Concentrate-Power Into-The-Hands of A-Few-People who Are-Like-Us. 2. "True-Lovers" affirm that The-Concentration of "The Powers That Be" into the hands of Any-Small-Set of Invulnerable-People corrupts "The Powers That Be"; turning them into "The-Fallen-Powers-That-Be" which facilitate, promote, and glorify Them-Selves as Worthy of unlimited Respect, Honor, Support and Even-Reverence/Idolatry. 3. "The-Domination-System" affirms that Salvation- Is-To-Be-Achieved through the Works-Of-Faith which enables Domineering-People to Believe-In-Miracles which "Good- People" Can-Achieve-Through-Domination; e.g., through the affirmations of: Controls, Laws, Prescriptions, Conformity, Proscriptions, Judgments, Punishments, Taboos, Excommunications, Alienations, Estrangements, Dysfunctional-Relationships, Collusive-Games-Of-Mutual- Self-Deception, Dis-Honesty, Appearances, Conformity, Proprieties, Etc. 4. "True-Lovers" affirm through Words-And-Deeds that True-Personal-And-Communal-Integrities can Be- Enjoyed only-through Personal-And-Communal: cooperation, collaboration, Open-And-Honest-Dialogue, Mutual-Balancing- Acts, Mutual-Trust, Civility-And-Hospitality, Mutual- Respect, Humility-Modesty-Gentleness-And-Generosity; ETC. 5. "The-Domination-System" affirms that "Success- Is-Impossible" unless we are ready, willing, eager, and able to unilaterally Use-And-Abuse: Power, Wealth, Possessions, Each-Other, Individual-Truths, Systems-Of- Power, Controls, Laws, Prescriptions, Conformity, Proscriptions, Judgments, Punishments, Taboos, Excommunications, Alienations, Estrangements, Dysfunctional-Relationships, Collusive-Games-Of-Mutual- Self-Deception, Dis-Honesty, Appearances, Conformity, Proprieties, Etc. 6. "True-Lovers" affirm that EVIL resides PRIMARILY within the contexts of EVIL-RELATIONSHIPS; NOT-PRIMARILY within the Contexts of Un-Approved: Isolated-Individuals, Isolated-Sinners, Non-Conformity, Creativity, Pleasures, Joys, Differences, Visions, Fantasies, Desires, Hopes, Aspirations, Thoughts, Discernments, Spirits, Relationships, Peasants, Poor- People, Humble-People, Dis-Eased-People, Spontaneity, Authenticity, Honesty, ETC. 7. "The-Domination-System" affirms that Simple- People Can-Achieve-Salvation ONLY through Simple-Minded- Ways which are NOT-CONFUSED-BY Un-Approved: Questions, Doubts, Visions, Complexities, Experiments, Descriptions, Experiences, Fantasies, Desires, Discernments, Meetings, Intimacies, Honesty, Vulnerabilities, Sexuality, 8. "True-Lovers" affirm that there are many Different-And-Complementary: Truths, Integrities, Desires, Hopes, Aspirations, Intentions, Expectations, People, Relationships, Insights, Descriptions, Experiences, Fantasies, Desires, Discernments, Meetings, Intimacies, Vulnerabilities, and Sexual-Forms. 9. "The-Domination-System" affirms the Centrality of Ideal-Forms-Presumably-Created-by-God which Must-Serve as the basis for CONFORMITY in regards to: Truths, Integrities, Desires, Hopes, Aspirations, Intentions, Expectations, People, Relationships, Insights, Descriptions, Experiences, Fantasies, Desires, Discernments, Meetings, Intimacies, Vulnerabilities, and Sexual-Expressions/Pleasures. 10. "True-Lovers" affirm "The-Powers-Of-Love" to liberate Victims-Participants who are imprisoned-by-and-in "The-Domination-System" as their "Means-To-Salvation" --- which Takes-For-Granted-And-Accepts-As-Normal: Alienation, Estrangement, Excommunications, Crusades, Inquisitions, Invasions-Of-Privacy, Domination, Coercion, Violence, Wars, WMDs, Political-Corruptions, Corporate-Corruption, Concentrations-Of-Fallen-Powers, Military-Industrial- Complexes, Vulnerations-Of-Poor-Peoples, etc. If we are NOT "True-Lovers" who As-Peacemakers are dedicated to and are facilitating-and-promoting many forms of Personal-And-Communal-Integrities; then we are likely to become Loyal-Supporters of "The Domination System" which undermines all kinds of Personal-And-Communal- Integrities which threaten "The Domination System" by exposing the Lack-Of-Integrity in its pretentious "affirmations". The "Collective-Unconscious" of domineering people is the Heart-Of-The-Domination-System. God as Love calls for many kinds of Systems-Analysts who are "True-Lovers" to describe "The Domination System" within open and honest discussions within Sanctuary- Communities where all participants share free gifts of the freedom to be mutually and safely vulnerable in "The-Balanced-Ways-Of-Love" that merit True-Reverence.
