Dishonesty is rampant in an addictive society. Yet, a compulsive dedication to objectivity is not a cure for the problems of the addictive society, because the compulsive dedication to objectivity is itself a manifestation of addiction with all the biases which addiction engenders. The addiction to objective research leads to addictive teaching practices and to a failure to understand why those practices are so ineffectual in promoting integrative learning. Professors who are addicted to research lack the emotional insight to understand the roots of students' learning dilemmas, and so seek technical solutions to dilemmas which are not technical problems. The professors may be emotionally dead due to emotional abuse in their own childhoods and schooling; active or passive abuse which has left them unable to be emotionally responsive or understanding. The cycle of emotional abuse is completed by people in a technocratic society who are taught to value objectivity above emotional authenticity; and who in consequence passively abuse their own children and students through emotional neglect and the lack of emotional sensitivity and responsiveness. Such parents generate the next generation of emotionally unresponsive scientists who are respected for their professional accomplishments, while they passively abuse their own children and students, and complete the tragic cycle again.
