     The  integrities of communities and the people within
communities  are  of  many inter-related forms  which  are
inter-dependent  upon each other form of integrity,  woven
together in a web like the threads of a fine cloth.

     No  one  form of true integrity can  be  unilaterally
dominant and/or  independent of other forms of integrities
---    with   diverse  persons   and/or   within   diverse
communities.

     No   one  person's  integrity  can  be   unilaterally
dominant  and/or  independent  of  other-persons;   and/or
independent other persons' many-forms-of-integrities.

     More of a "good-thing"  does not promote integrity of
any  kind ---  if  "having-more"   of "the-good-thing"  is
inevitably tied to the unilateral-sacrifice  of  "another-
good-thing"  and/or of "other-good-things".

     Here a "good-thing" may be:  a form of integrity of a
person and/or community,  a possession, a truth, a virtue,
an insight, a perspective, a vision,  a fantasy, a desire,
a relationship, etc.

     True distributive-justice is a "good-thing".

     True reconciliation-and-healing are "good-things".

     True reverence-within-context can be a "good-thing".

     True balance-and-mutuality are "good-things".

     True cooperation-and-collaboration are "good-things".

                        However, in contrast:

     Unilateral-coercive-action is rarely a "good-thing".

     Unilateral-violent-action is rarely a "good-thing".

     Alienation and excommunication are not "good-things".

     Human-polarizations are not "good-things".

     Idealistic-exclusivities are not "good-things".

     Ideal-forms are not universally "good-things".

     "Good-things" merit respect and honor contextually.

     Concentrations of power/wealth are not "good-things".

     "Integrities" merit respect and honor contextually.

     "Prescriptions" merit are "good-things" contextually.

     Truths are "good-things" contextually/situationally.

     What is good for one person, may not be for another.

     What is good for one place, may not be for another.

     What is good in one relation, may not be in another.

     Exclusive-truths are not "good-things".

     Arrogance & self-righteousness are not "good-things".

                        It helps to be aware that:

     Vices are often rooted in the "absence-of-virtues".

     Vices can be moderated via "integrations-of-virtues".

     Vices cannot be destroyed-unilaterally by anyone.

     Vices can be mitigated via cooperative-actions.

     Vices can be mitigated via integrative-actions.

     Communal-integrity is a fabric of many-integrities.

     Personal-integrity is a fabric of many-integrities.

     Greed and narcissism lead to disintegrations.

     Generosity and hospitality lead to integrations.

     Ignorance of the above --- leads to disintegrations.

     Awareness of the above --- leads to integrations.
