It is difficult to make any case for saying that there has been an occasion on which Violent-Methods-of- Resolving-Conflicts have contributed in a Net-Way to Personal-and-Communal Integrations-and-Integrities. 1. When Violent-Methods are used to try to resolve conflicts --- The-Losers clearly lose Personal-and- Communal Integrations-and-Integrities. 2. When Violent-Methods are used The-Winners are regularly the victims of: Alienation, Estrangement, Collusive-Games-of-Mutual-Self-Deception, Dishonesty, Pretense, Arrogance, Self-Righteousness, etc. The above observations are valid --- because it is in the nature of Violent-Contests that it is the Most- Domineering contestants who "WIN" by being the most: Violent, Domineering, Destructive, Alienative, Dishonest, Pretentious, Arrogant, Self-Righteous, etc. The above observations are valid --- because it is in the nature of Violent-Contests --- that it is the Most- Domineering contestants who act in ways which generate the most Extreme-Tragic-Cases of: Alienation, Dishonesty, Pretense, Arrogance, Self-Righteousness, Estrangement, Collusive-Games-of-Mutual-Self-Deception, etc. Agreeing to settle contests by violent methods --- is to agree to generate much: Alienation, Dishonesty, Pretense, Arrogance, Self-Righteousness, Estrangement, Collusive-Games-of-Mutual-Self-Deception, etc. Simplistic-forms-of-Idealism lead to Tragic-Outcomes when the Simplistic-Ideals ARE-FULFILLED; e.g., while Achieving-Dominance BY-SACRIFICING: Shalom, Honesty, Authenticity, Humility, Integrities, Hospitality, Cooperation, Colaboration, Mutual-Understanding, etc. Be Graciously-Together in the Many-Ways-of-Shalom.
