An old key which opens a given lock in a given circumstance has a few "bumps" of just the right positions and 
heights to move interior parts of a lock in just the right positions to allow the cylinder of the lock to turn 
freely.  The key must fit the circumstances of the lock - - - for the key to work in opening the lock.

So also - - - in each occasion of an Alienative-Conflict related to some human dilemma where our human: ideals, 
values, principles, virtues, etc.  are not aligned to fit the challenges of the dilemma at hand - - - we must have
there the right key to the Kingdom-of-Gracious-Shalom.

We need to adjust the relative emphases we place upon our priority: ideals, values, principles, virtues, etc. - - -
and upon what-needs-to-be-affirmed-and-done; and in what order - - - to unlock the Gracious-Ways-of-Shalom to allow
the Pilgrims seeking to Mitigate-their-Own-Alienative-Conflicts to Be-Together working to Mitigate-Conflicts in the 
Gracious-Ways-of-Shalom.

Each unique circumstance require the discernments of the appropriate-priority-emphases and the sequencing-of-many-
appropriate-steps;  within the context of Open-and-Honest-Dialogues about ALL-PEOPLE'S-MOST-HEALTHY-AND-BASIC-NEEDS.

In these matters there is no one key or solution which will work in all circumstances for all unique people and
settings.  It is tragically-simplistic to look for such a Universal-Key; or to think arrogantly that such a Universal- 
Key is actually in our hands, and that we know how to make it work for people whom we do not really know at all well.

Be-Aware of Arrogant-People, and Beware of them.
