To Graciously-Help other to Mitigate-their-Own-Alienative-Conflicts--- we must work earnestly in trying to understand 
in Sympathetic-Ways:

 1. What Different-Peoples' Perspectives and Points-of-View are --- as people experience them --- for all of their 
    own perhaps unique reasons --- as well as for common reasons.

 2. What different: Assumptions, Attitudes, Experiences, Beliefs, Fears, Anxieties, Vulnerabilities, Diseases, 
    Injuries, Committments, Promises, Covenants, Bondings, etc. --- lead different people to understand texts, essays,
    conversations, statements, songs, signs, etc. --- in different ways than we understand them.

 3. How we can come to a sympathetic understanding of the way that other people come to be comfortable with how they
    understand a text, essay, conversation, statement, song, sign, etc. --- in the way that they do so.

 4. How to help other to Mitigate-Their-Own-Alienative-Conflicts that have grown out of Domineering-Bullies' Senses-of-
    Entitlement --- because of how God has favored them as Special-Creatures with the Rights-to-Control: Lands, Texts,
    Scriptures, Peoples, Ideals, Ideas, Values, Virtues, Destinations, Destinies, etc.

 5. The Special-Challenges to people trying to Mitigate-their-Own-Alienative-Conflicts which have been generated by:
    Religious-Arrogance, Political-Arrogance, Scientists'-Arrogance, Academic-Arrogance, Sexual-Arrogance, Technocratic-
    Arrogance, Judicial-Arrogance, Legislative-Arrogance, etc.
 
 6. How each form of Arrogance --- in its own distinctive ways --- Challenges the people who are trying to Mitigate-
    Their-Own-Alienative-Conflicts --- within the corresponding matrices of Specialized/Isolated Forms-of-Concentration
    of Powers-and-Wealth; often wrapped up in Honored/Revered forms of Idolatrous-Technologies that are credited with
    Redemptive-Alienative-Powers --- through complicity in Collusive-Games-of-Mutual-Self-Deception --- which are Holy-
    and-Sacred.  Each form of Alienative-Arrogance is associated with Specialized-forms-of-Excellence that are Idolized
    by Idolators.

 7. What kinds of inter-personal-processes and/or relationships --- reliably Augment-Alienations and/or Reliably 
    Mitigate-Alienations?    What makes the difference between the outcomes?  

    Might it be found in clusters of mutually-complementary-and-balanced:

    a. Ideas, Ideals, Values, Virtues?
    b. Techniques, Technologies, Technocrats?
    c. Visions, Dreams, Fantasies?
    d. Leaders, Role-Models, Exemplars?
    e. Scripts, Scriptures, Interpretations
    f. Environments, Resources, Nature's-Evolutions?
    g. Bullies, Mobbing-Mobsters, Warriors, Terrorists, Peace-Makers?

 8. How/why is it that Domineering-Bullies cannot accept two different articulations of Essential-Clusters-of-Mutually-
    Supportive-Virtues --- as being essentially-equivalent.  Perhaps there are long traditions of one articulation
    empowering Domineering-Bullies, but there is no such tradition associated with any newer articulation --- and young
    people are free to see that the traditional pattern of empowering Domineering-Bullies cannot be justified with
    integrity in any well balanced terms.  The traditions of Domineering-Bullies --- cannot be supported with integrity 
    by any articulation of any Coherent-and-Balanced-Cluster-of-True-Virtues --- because Domineering-Bullies have not
    offered any coherent proposals.

 9. What can-be our-most: helpful, healing-and-integrative-responses that we can offer --- whenever we encounter ---
    each of the following realities in ourselves and/or in each other:

    Imperfections?            Vulnerabilities?                Anxieties?             Fears?              Wants?

    Needs?                    Evil-Relationships?             Impurities?            Domination?         Violence?

    Alienation?               Polarizations?                  Antagonism?            Distrust?           Anger?

    Unmet-Basic-Needs?        Impatience?                     Intolerance?           Anxieties?          Terrors?
