RETURN TO recent.htm ESSAY-HYPER-LINKS There are some word/concept combinations which are (almost always, if not always), misleading and/or alienative in their effect upon human relationships wherein they play any significant misleading roles. The words on the left below, combined with the words on the right below, often form such misleading and/or alienative-combinations. If respect is shown for the word-combination; Alienative-Conflicts are likely to flow from that misplaced respect. The words often contradict each other as in: "dry-water", "flat-sphere", "soft-diamond", "good-alienation", etc. Such word combinations lead to tragically incoherent thinking and feelings, and to the Playing-to-WIN Collusive- Games-of-Mutual-Self-Deception! Consider the Self-Deception within: Redemptive Violence Violent Redemption Honorable Coercion Saving Dishonesty Pretentious Salvation Heavenly Excommunications Reconciled Shunners Profitable Alienation Integrative Exclusivity Gracious Greed Reconciling Hoarding Healing Attacks Integrative Torture Healthy Addictions Liberating Codependents Admirable Collusions Sustainable Crimes Creative Entropy Kind Stealing Thoughtful Murder Empathetic Rape Generous Injustice Authentic Deception Redemptive Terrorism Constructive Wars Helpful Excommunications Revealing Deceptions People who use, honor, tolerate and/or think-by using such mutually-contradictory word-combinations - - - cannot be worthy of much trust, honor or support as Reliable- Leaders towards Personal-and-Communal Integrations and Integrities - - - in any true sustainable community or civilization. Such people are likely to be Playing to WIN Collusive-Games-of-Mutual-Self-Deception with Domineering-Bullies and Mobbing-Mobsters behind THEM, The-Leaders of Domineering - - - Military-Industrial-Congressional-Complexes and Mobbing-Coalitions of Technocrats who are Terrorized by True-Lovers who are Loving-their-Poor-Neighbors in God's Astronomically- Tiny-and-Isolated Space-Ship-Earth wherein Distributive-Injustice plays central roles in the Alienative-Concentration of Wealth-Influence-and-Powers - - - Guided-by-GREED into the depths of Entropic-Decay through Unlimited-Exponential-Growths in populations and yearly-personal-consumption-rates of Limited-Material-Supplies of Pure-Minerals and Concentrated-Energy. There is no Resupply-Ship-Bringing any helpful replacements! Mortals do not have the power to create a Resupply-Ship-With any helpful replacements! God created Astronomically-Tiny-Space-Ship-Earth Essentially-Materially-Isolated from all Extraterrestrial Pure-Material-Resources that are like those most coveted within Space-Ship-Earth by Domineering-Bullies and Mobbing-Mobsters! We are all on our own! This is the time to begin Graciously-Mitigating Our-Own Alienative-Conflicts! LOVE! ========================================================================================= We need to identify the "successful" capitalists that succeed by "externalizing" many of their own "business costs": 1. To the environment of Astronomically-Tiny-Isolated Space-Ship-Earth with its limited supplies of readily available and useful: a. Fossil-Fuels such as oil, coal, natural gas, peat, wood, and plants; old solar energy. b. U-235 and U-238 as created in explosions of ancient stars. c. Pure-Water and Ice, d. Pure-Air, e. Pure-Minerals, f. Pure-Soils. 2. To the environment in pollutants such as: a. Carbon-Dioxide into the air, oceans, lakes and rivers with consequent costs therein. b. Mining tailing of radioactive and non-radioactive pollutants; c. Craps from industrial processes, d. Untreated sewage, e. Organic compounds which take very long times to "decay" in natural environments. f. Plastic products which collect on the surface of the oceans. g. The costs of lawyers in litigation; rather than Graciously Mitigating Alienative-Conflicts.
