     When  we are confronted with the tragic costs of past
Evil-Relationships  it  is natural to ask for  retroactive
fixes;  e.g., to make things now like they would have been
had particular Evil-Relationships not occurred/existed.

     The problems with the above kinds of requests  and/or
demands include:

     1.  We cannot change events in the past.

     2.  We cannot arrange for full compensations, without
inflicting   additional   injustices  that  will   thereby
perpetuate  the cycle of Evil-Relationships,   Alienation,
Violence, and attempts at Domination.

     3.  Retrospective-Selfish-Demands made in efforts  to
compensate  for Previous-Selfish-Demands.     Evil-Actions
will  not compensate for previous-Evil-Actions.

     4.  That is Evil which generates Evil-Relationships.

     5.  That Evil cannot be helpfully defined in terms of
Ideal-Forms,  Ideal-Conformity, Ideal-Formalities,  Ideal-
Rituals,  Ideal-Scripts, Ideal-Scriptures,  Created-Forms,
Created-Ideals,  Created-Conformity,  Created-Formalities,
Created-Rituals, Created-Scripts, Created-Scriptures, etc.
