Technical insights are mediated by theoretical agents which/who stand between the data and the generalization. Technical insights demand verification rather than invite personal affirmation. To be considered valid technical insights require satisfaction of tests of statistical significance --- implying that unique individuals/experiences can not significant/meaningful. The important technical others must assent to the significance of technical insights before they advance from hypothesis to accepted reality. If the technical others fear the insights there is no chance that the insights will be accepted as real---feared insights will be filtered out by technical considerations which will show that the insights do not conform to the form of technical truth. Technocrats have high standards regarding the permitted forms of truth---and reject as unreliable any truth which comes in a nontechnical form. Most existential insights do not come in forms which conform to the technocrats' conception of truth. Thus existential insights do not play leading roles in the cast of the technocratic society. Existential insights are essentially reflexive. Such insights can not be verified by objective procedures; they are affirmed by reflexive persons. Such affirmations are made by whole persons with their whole being---not by fragmented persons via specialized languages. Specialized languages may play a role such affirmations by participating in the organic whole, rather than by being the mediator that carries the whole truth. Existential insights come to living persons, not to specialized researchers making use of objective techniques for creating truth which can be verified. Insights about human existence are occasioned by the suffering associated within intimate relationships. Exclusive tendencies are found guilty of promoting excommunication as a coping technique. The tension between valuing techniques and valuing intimacy generates suffering---suffering which informs receptive persons, and frightens deceptive persons. Existential insights can not be translated into objective language without loss of meaning. Human meaning is a subjective/reflexive reality which can not be accurately represented in objective language. Existential insights are thus obscure to technocrats. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
