It does not make sense to attempt to use the Manipulative-Procedures that Work-Well in Manipulating-Objects in Objective-Ways to achieve Pre-Determined-Goals --- in responding to Reflexive-Dilemmas where what counts is the long-term evolution of Healthy-Reflexive-Relationships which cannot be Long-Controlled by any person or coalition.

Manipulative-Procedures, Pre-Determined-Goals and Objective-Ways usually engender: Alienation, Estrangement, Misunderstandings, Confusion, Contentiousness, Expanding-Conflicts and other developments that will undermine all Long-Term Healthy-Relationships.

People who have focused most of their attention upon Coercive-Procedures, Manipulating-Objects, Objective-Ways, Pre-Determined-Goals, Unilateral-Actions, Controlling-Things, Predicting-Outcomes, and Determining-Outcomes --- will find it exceedingly difficult to be sympathetic to the Ways-of-Shalom as being Essentially-Desireable-Ways; apart from Ultimately-Achieving some Pre-Determined-Goals --- by themselves in some Unhealthy-States-of-Isolation.

True-Lovers who find these and related essays meaningful --- are working within realms which many people cannot imagine as being possible; while fearing that True-Lovers may threaten them by fulfilling Shalom's-Possibilities in ways which mitigate All-Forms-of-Dominantion.
