    For  a Community-and-its-Members to Enjoy-Shalom  they
must get-together in  the WAys-of-Shalom ---  be liberated
from Domination-Systems and their Loyal-Supporters.

    It is Necessary to Recognize and Let-Go-Of Domination-
Systems  and  their Loyal-Supporters ---  but that is NOT-
Sufficient.  NEGATION is not enough.

    It is important for people to recognize in each  other
what   Common-Affirmations,   How-Demonstrated  and   How-
Communicated  ---   can serve as  Helpful-Foundations  for
their own Patterns-of-Cooperation.

    Helpful-Foundations  for  our  Patterns-of-Cooperation
may Fit-Us;   but MAY-NOT Fit-Others.   What works for us;
may   not   be  Universal-Helpful-Foundations   for   All-
Cooperators!

    People are born different and grow up different.

    Different   combinations   of   Different-People  Are-
Different;    and  so  may  need  to  their   Patterns-of-
Cooperation upon Different-Foundations.

    Universal-Foundations-for-Cooperation  may exist  only
in the Fantasy-World of Domineering-People who want to  be
able  to Manipulate-Vulnerable-People by manipulating the:
Ideals, Ideas, Values, Principles, Goals, and Foundations-
for-Cooperation  ---   which  they  internalize  ---   for
whatever reasons.

    This  is  NOT to say that Common-Elements will not  be
found  among Different-People's  Different-Collections-of-
Different-People   ---   and  not  be  found  among  their
Different Foundations-for-Cooperation.   We can reasonably
expect to find such Common-Elements.   However, we need to
beware   of  letting  Domineering-People  force  us   into
accepting  only Their-Commonly-Chosen-Common-Elements  ---
which make it possible for Domineering-People to Dominate-
US.

    We cannot reasonably have Ground-for-Authentic-Hope --
so  long as Domineering-People continue to play  Dominant-
Roles in our efforts to Agree-Upon what-can-be for-us our-
own    Commonly-Agreed-Upon-Affirmations    of    Our-Own-
Foundations   for    Cooperation-via-Mutually-Agreed-upon-
Affirmations  --- which  are free  of  Preoccupations with
Negations; and free of Preoccupations-with-Domination.

     Be Graciously-Together in the Many-Ways-of-Shalom.
