In communities which are dominated by collusive games of mutual self deception preoccupations with both conformity and non-conformity play central roles in relationships, power structures, and systematic procedures; for collusions are about appearances, rather than about true realities. Colluders are preoccupied with appearances because collusive success has to do with getting people to believe and trust appearances, rather than with understanding why things appear to be as they are. Colluders do not dare to try to understand why things appear to be as they are, for in doing so they might expose the dishonesties of their collusions and so cause their house of cards to fall down. Collusions have to do with getting people's thought patterns to conform to the systematics of prescribed patterns of thought and feeling, for it appears to colluders that security resides in conformity which will help them to avoid the embarrassments of discovering truths which do not conform to the cleverly woven system of lies which are the fabric of the collusion. It appears to be very dangerous to colluders to become involved with responsive people who are open, honest, and truly responsible; for such people cannot be trusted to conform to prescribed forms of behavior. Thus colluders tend to avoid such people, and define responsibility in terms of prescribed forms of conformity; not in terms of being responsive regarding one's experiences, perceptions, assumptions, values and ideals. The latter is un-thinkable to colluders, and is made to appear to be unreasonable because it does not involve proper conformity to responsible forms of behavior. Only when people conform to proper forms of behavior can the collusion survive with its delicately woven system of deceptions and lies. Preserving the collusion is the ultimate concern in a collusive community. Honesty, integrity and health are all sacrificed to preserve the collusion. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
