    Within  the  exact  sciences the focus is  often  upon
highly  accurate descriptions which are communicated  with
the use of the symbols of mathematics ---  and which focus
upon    quantitative   measurements   and    computations.
Descriptive   "laws"   focus  upon   generalizations   and
summaries  of  direct empirical  measurements.    Theories
focus  upon  higher level generalizations  regarding  such
descriptive "laws"  and how they are inter-related to each
other;   using even higher levels of mathematical ways  of
communicating such abstractions.

    Within descriptions of reflexive humane  relationships
a  similar  pattern is evolving.   At the level of  direct
descriptions   we  can  focus  upon  generalizations   and
summaries of direct reflexive observations and discernment
as  is the case in the exact sciences where the  focus  of
attention  is  objects and objective  relationships.    In
describing humane relationships there is a similar pattern
of   focusing  upon  healthy  interactions  among   humane
persons;   and  upon inhumane relationships  among  people
trapped in evil-relationships where alienation,  violence,
coercion,    demands,    commands,    prescriptions    and
proscriptions  dominate;   under the tragic  influence  of
inhumane alienations,   arrogance,   unilateral-judgments,
hubris and tragic consequences of simplistic idealism.

    We  have not had much success in using the language of
mathematics  in  facilitating humane  reconciliations  and
healthy  intimate relationships.    We need to evolve  new
forms of language which will help us to facilitate  humane
reconciliations  of  alienations and so to facilitate  and
promote    more   healthy   forms   of   intimate   humane
relationships.    In particular we need to evolve ways  of
communicating  "standards"  which are profound in  helpful
ways; clarifying abstract "principles"  which can guide us
in  responding  in healthy ways  to  Alienative-Behaviors;
rather  than responding in un-healthy ways  to Alienative-
Behaviors.  The latter leads to tragic-recycling of former
Alienative-Behaviors which involve escalations of violence
and   coercion  which  are  more  often  destructive  than
constructive.

    We need to work cooperatively to evolve  relationships
within which Love,   rather  than  Fear,   is  the primary
motivation.   We need to work on describing accurately how
steps in that direction are being taken by True-Lovers who
transcend Fear while responding to Alienative-Behaviors.

    Abstract  Reflexive-Descriptions can help  communicate
insights  into principles which can guide the evolution of
Reconciling-Responses to Alienative-Behaviors ---  without
engaging   in  the  use/abuse  of   prescriptions   and/or
proscriptions  regarding  specific:  doctrines,   rituals,
rites, traditions, and/or imitations ---  of imitations of
each  other's  specific  actions within  specific  social-
contexts.    The latter tend to be  alienative  behaviors;
rather  than  reconciling behaviors.    The  latter  leave
little  room  for  free choice  and  creativity  in  truly
intimate relationships between and among True-Lovers.   We
are  admonished to Love our Neighbors.   How are we to  do
that;  by Simplistic-Literal-Imitations of specific  acts?
By  Simplistic-Literal-Interpretations of ancient  strings
of  words  in  an unfamiliar language?    What  has  human
experience  be in regards to these alternatives?   How can
we  accurately  describe the results  of  extensive  human
experiences in past conflicts and wars?
