     It is Ultimately-Risky to place Ultimate-Trust in any
Original-Source-Of-Authority   which   demonstrates     no
interest  in contemporaneous Existential-Human-Experiences
and     Descriptions-of-Contemporaneous-Existential-Human-
Experiences --- as having any Authority.

     With  the above beginning ---  what chance  is  there
that   the  Domineering-Disciples  of  such  an  Original-
Source-of-Authority   will   ever  show  Any-Interest   in
Existential-Human-Experiences  as  having   Any-Authority.
Why   would  such  leaders  ever  accept  graciously   any
challenge       to      their      Advantageous-Authority?
Contemporaneous  facts have become irrelevant in the  face
of such an Ultimate-Authority.

     Under  such  circumstances,  on  What-Authority   can
anybody  challenge the Ultimate-Authority  of  Ultimately-
Domineering  "Authorities"   regarding the meaning of  the
Original-Revelations in the Original-Source-of-Authority?

     How can such an Idolatrous-Authority be proven to  be
Idolatrous ---  without appealing to Contemporaneous-Facts
about Current-Experiences showing that the following kinds
of behaviors lead to alienation and disintegration;  i.e.,
lead to Evil-Relationships:

 1.  Domination,
 2.  Coercion,
 3.  Violence,
 4.  Dishonesty,
 5.  Pretentiousness,
 6.  Arrogance,
 7.  Greed,
 8.  Distributive Injustice,
 9.  Power-Concentrations,
10.  Wealth-Concentrations,
11.  Domineering-Coalitions,
12.  Willful-Ignorance,
13.  Willful-Prejudices,
14.  Willful-Provincialism,
15.  Systemic-Collusive-Games  of   Mutual-Self-Deception,
16.  Systemic-Addictions and Codependent-Supports,
17.  Divorces between Personal and Communal Integrities.
18.  Divorces between Personal and Communal  Integrations.
19.  Dichotomization of:  Reason, Spirit, Sexuality, Love.
20.  Dichotomization of: Science, Religion, Intimacies.
21.  Dichotomization of: Wisdom, Prudence, Practicality.
22.  Dichotomization of: Morality, Ethics, Technologies.
23.  Certainty in the absence of experiences/evidence.
24.  Certainty in the absence of experimentation/vision.
25.  Certainty in the absence of Diverse-Perspectives.
26.  Certainty in the absence of Cooperation/Collaboration
27.  Certainty in the absence of True-Lovers.
28.  Absolutes in the absence of honest tests of them.
29.  Domination-Systems Without Systems-Analysis.
30.  Powers-That-Be without Powerful-Honest-Leaders.

     The  seeds  of Disintegration are planted  when  any
alienated Source-of-Authority is granted Ultimate-Power to
be  the focus of Ultimate-Authority and  Ultimate-Concern.
Then human experiences,  descriptions, and True-Lovers are
declared to be irrelevant and of no count.

                      "Search for Honesty and Integrity"
                    (On Being Yourself Whole and Healthy)
