      Among  scientists,   but  not   among fundamentalist
religious leaders,  there  is  a strong consensus that all
living creatures (including  humans) have  evolved through
various    forms    of    survival-of-the-fittest-for-the-
environment.    In each case there have been a variety  of
considerations  which have influenced  which  accidentally
variation in  a combination of many genetic codes has  led
to overall greater-fitness than other combinations of many
genetic codes.

      It  seems reasonable to postulate/hypothesize that a
similar process might well take place in regards to people
participating  on  personal  and  communal   relationships
within complexly organized communities.  Some combinations
of  human  traits are bound to be more likely  to  survive
than  other combinations.   Consider the following ODD and
EVEN possibilities:

      1.  The  ability to invent and make nuclear  weapons
combined with macho and domineering thinking.

      2.  Sensitivity  to people trapped in human dilemmas
combined   with   an  ability  to  manage   great   wealth
effectively.

      3.  Great physical strength, dexterity and quickness
combined  with  insensitivity  to the dilemmas  of  people
trapped within tragic human dilemmas.

      4.  High  levels of intellectual abilities  combined
with  dispositions to show reverence  toward diverse forms
of personal and communal integrities and integrations.

      5.  The inheritance of  vast  amounts  of wealth and
political  power combined with an extremely fundamentalist
heritage driven and  guided  by  many  fears within a fast
changing communal and natural environment.

      6.  The   inheritance  of  vast  amounts  of  wealth
combined  with  a  heritage of  thoughtful-meditation  and
non-violent resistance to macho-sub-cultures.

      7.  The  inheritance  of  competencies  in  systems-
analysis  combined  with dispositions  to  manipulate  and
control objects,  molecules,  atoms,  nuclei and very fast
chain-reactions;  combined with few if any social skills.

      8.  Dispositions   to   mysticism   and   meditation
combined with high levels of respect for healthy  personal
relationships and communal integrity.

      9.  Effective   speaking,    rhetoric   and   group-
organizational  skills  combined with  tendencies  toward
paranoia and/or other forms of mental illness.

     10.  The  ability  to generate  complex  intellectual
structures   combined  with  intense  desires  to  nurture
balanced humane relationships.

      Which  combinations should we facilitate,   support,
respect,   honor,   and show reverence  toward?

      Which combinations should we be well informed about,
be-aware-of and beware of?

                              Shalom!

                                                                                                                               
                         (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in      
                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
