           When  people focus their own and each  other's  lives
      upon: doctrines, rituals, goals, traditions,  possessions,
      ownerships, formalities, boundaries, territories, winning,
      defeat,   domination,  controls,  scores,  competition ---
      
           There  is  no time,  interest,  desire,   energy,  or
      pleasure in focusing  upon their  own  or  each   other's:
      hopes,    aspirations,    desires,    pleasures,    needs,
      integrations,   integrities,   creativity,   imaginations,
      dreams, fantasies, etc.
      
           There is much time,  interest,  desire,  energy,  and
      pleasure  (?)   spent in focusing upon their own and  each
      other's:  fears, anxieties, vulnerabilities,  weak-points,
      failures,  imperfections, failures, confusion,  ignorance,
      defeats, etc.
      
           We need to be careful about where we and others focus
      our own and each other's time and resources;  and where we
      neglect to focus an appropriate/balanced amount of our own
      and others' time and resources.  It is the overall-pattern
      which is important;  not any isolated-aspect taken-out-of-
      context which is of ULTIMATE-IMPORTANT.
      
           No ISOLATED: rule, law, commandment, demand,  ritual,
      doctrine,   truth,  or other-reality ---  is of  ULTIMATE-
      IMPORTANCE  OUTSIDE-OF-CONTEXT;  i.e.,  without  being  an
      integral  part  of  a wider-context  of  integrations  and
      integrities.     Each reality loses its  significance  and
      importance to the degree that it is removed from the wider
      context  which gives it both significance and  importance.
      In the  absence  of integrating-realities  each  isolated-
      reality is without significance-and-importance.  Be-Aware-
      Of and Beware-Of realities-in-isolation!

           The  strategies of Domineering-People run counter  to
      the above integrative-considerations.   Domineering-People
      seek  to  Divide-and-Conquer  by  Dis-Integrative-Efforts.
      They  "succeed"   through promoting and  facilitating  all
      kinds of disintegrations by using destructive weapons:
      
           1.  Dishonesty,
            2.  Secrecy,
             3.  Deception,
              4.  Misleading-actions,
               5.  Pretentious-claims,
                6.  Myths-about-redemptive-means,
                 7.  Violence,
                  8.  Coercion,
                   9.  Concentrations-of-Powers-That-Be.
                    10.  Concentrations-of-Private-Wealth,
                     11.  The formation of Power-Coalitions,
                      12.  Unilateral-Actions,
                       13.  Denigrations of Diplomacy,
                        14.  Denigrations of Kindness,
                         15.  Denigrations of Generosity,
                          16.  Denigrations of Dialogue,
                           17.  Denigrations of Learning,
                            18.  Denigrations of Integrities,
                             19.  Denigrations of Integrations,
                              20.  Denigrations of True-Lovers,
                               21.  Denigrations of Faith,
                                22.  Denigrations of Hope,
                                 23.  Denigrations of LOVE.
                                  24.  Denigrations of GOD.
