Attempts of the above sorts are aleays being made, but such attempts fail to be effective in any Integrative- Way. The attempts may in the short term concentrate power, wealth, authority and honor into the hands of a few --- and Generate-Corruption to the extent that power and wealth are concentrated at the expense of the Poor-and- Powerless. The attempts are NOT effective in any Integrative-Way because the attempts are Inherently-Alienative and so lead to both Personal-and-Communal disintegrations. Yet many people do not recognize what is happening, what has happened, or the lack of integrity of what is hapening or has happened. We need to work to help expose the collusive games of mutual self deception which are often woven into God-Talk; ie., Theology. Follow the Money- Concentrations. Follow the Power-Concentrations. Follow the Wealth-Concentrations. Who concentrates what? Who benefits? Who Pays-the-Price? Integrative-Efforts and Integrative-Links promote and facilitate Distributive-Justice and other forms of justice. Loyal-Supporters of The-Domination-System of The- Powers-That-Be Collusively-Engage in Disintegrative- Efforts and create Disintegrative-Links. We need to recognize the Disintegrative-Natures of their efforts, paradigms, Frames-of-Reference, Compulsive-Preoccupations, and ways of Framing-Questions and Framing-Issues. It is especially important to recognize their efforts when they are vested in the vestments of HONORED: religious, political, theological, scientific, technocratic, military, corporate, banking, and multi-national leaders.
