    Human achievements are meaningful only in the presence
of an enduring healthy community  which  responds  to  the
achievements in ways which are meaningful;  so giving  the
achievements meaning. For this reason achievements are NOT
meaningful whenever the "achievement process":

    1.  Destroys each community which might otherwise give
meaning to the achievement;  e.g., through disintegrations
associated  with:    self-righteousness, pride,   egotism,
narcissism,    arrogance,     estrangement,    alienation,
excommunications,  exclusivity,   imbalance, distributive-
injustice, war, terrorism, unilateralism, etc.

    2.  Denigrates the virtues which are essential to  the
conservation  of each community which might otherwise give
meaning to  the  achievement;   INCLUDING  the virtues of:
humility,    cooperation,    collaboration,    generosity,
civility,    hospitality,     tolerance,      forgiveness,
reconciliation,   dialogue,     mutuality,    inclusively,
balance,  mutuality, distributive-justice, healing, mercy.

    3.  Generates much  disintegrative:   contentiousness,
confusion, conflicts, coercion, violence, chaos,  garbage,
misunderstanding,   power/wealth-concentration, animosity,
etc.   ---   so undermining communal affirmations  of  the
achievements.

    4.  Entails    stealing,     dishonesty,     pretense,
unilateralisms,   collusions,   addictions,   codependent-
supporters,   etc.   ---   thereby   undermining  communal
affirmations of the achievements.
