Tragically-Often people work diligently to Identify-Their-
Enemies from among Just-Among-Other-People who are:

 1.  Different,
 2.  Strangers,
 3.  Foreigners,
 4.  Far-from-Them,
 5.  Alienated,
 6.  Members of Minority-Groups,
 7.  Poor, Hungry, Sick, Homeless,
 8.  Otherwise Vulnerable.

At-the-Same-Time  --- the above Diligent-People often fail
to    Recognize-and-be-Concerned-About    the    following
Relational-Reflexive-Realities,   which  are  Far-Greater-
Threats  to their Personal-and-Communal  Integrations-and-
Integrities  ---   than are any  of  their  "Unilaterally-
Labeled-Alienated-Enemies":

 1.  Arrogance,
 2.  Self-Righteousness,
 3.  Alienations-from-Neighbors-and-Friends,
 4.  Ignorance-about-Each-Other,
 5.  Premature-Judgments-made-about-Each-Other,
 6.  Ignoring-the-Evidence-of-Their-Own-Experiences.
 7.  Repeating-Alienative-Behaviors-Over-and-Over.
 8.  Being-Preoccupied with Being-Invulnerable.
 9.  Avoiding-All-Risks in Intimate-Relationships.
10.  Alienative-Speculations about God-and-Heaven.
11.  Honoring-Concentrations of Wealth-and-Powers.
12.  Systemic-Violations of Distributive-Justice.
13.  Defending Entrenched-Ignorance-and-Prejudices.
14.  Defending behaviors of Bullies/Domineering People.
15.  Honoring behaviors of Bullies/Domineering People.
16.  Rank-Ordering People as Good and/or Evil-People.
17.  Presuming to Know who is Good,   and Who is Evil.
18.  Using Excommunications & Banishments as Punishments.
19.  Tolerating Alienation as a Normal-Human-Condition.
20.  Tolerating Great-Concentrations-of-Power-and-Wealth.
21.  Augmenting Intolerance, Extremism and Terrorism.
22.  Augmenting Demands, Coercion and Domination in Anger.
23.  Perpetuating patterns of Revenge-and-Alienation.

It  would  be helpful to do an  Open-and-Honest Reflexive-
Systems-Analysis of just how Real-and-Dangerous -- each of
the above alleged threats really is. Who is Most-Qualified
and   trust-worthy  to  make  such  a   Reflexive-Systems-
Analysis?   Who is Most-Qualified to answer that question?
How can We-Tell?  Whom can we tell?

     Be-Together in the Many-Gracious ways of Shalom.

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