(See the previous essay.) The rate of change of the confused state is proportional to the degree of confusion already achieved; and the consequence is what mathematicians call an exponential process, but in this case it is exponential decay caused by a positive feed- back loop process. The mathematical terms convey emotional meanings which are opposite to the meanings in terms of personal and communal integrity. It is natural that the confusion of meanings of terms should contribute additionally to the growth of confusion. When addictive desires and needs seek expression in a society which has become an addict, the people in that society who (in addictive ways) are trying to behave responsibly (moralistically, legalistically, systematic- ally, ethically, paternalistically) actually act in ways which further repress honest expressions of authentic emotions and convictions. When people are not permitted to be themselves honestly because they are rejected when they try to be themselves honestly, they naturally seek to be dishonestly whom they think will be accepted--dishonest acceptance seems to be better than dishonest rejection. No one can with integrity try to be someone else than themselves. Thus, rejection of nonconformists leads to personal and communal disintegration. Once the disintegration process is well under way it is much more difficult to begin the recovery process than it would have been to honestly accept the nonconformists in the first place as the people whom they could honestly be.
