Often other persons feel threatened by the personal integrity of creative, honest, imaginative, integrative, unconventional, non-conformal persons of integrity; and feel that they must attack the integrity of such threatening persons. Some people regard persons who are creative, honest, imaginative, integrative, unconventional, non-conformal persons of integrity---as threats to the communal integrity. Our communities cannot persist with integrity if the members of our communities often feel threatened by persons of integrity who are competently defending their own personal integrity. The integrity of the community ultimately depends upon persons of integrity surviving with integrity. It is important for people who have successfully conceived themselves to have personal integrity to be able to survive with integrity---even when they are threatened by people who fear them, and who are motivated by fear to act in disintegrative ways. We need to recognize, name, describe and talk about the disintegrative acts of people who are motivated by fear and attack persons of integrity. It is dangerous to give overt or tacit support for such fearful actions. When people are dominated by fear of any kind and their actions are both motivated and guided by fear, they are not wise. They lead others to behave in tragic ways which they do not understand so they learn a little if anything from the consequences of their behaviors. We are fools if we who watch learn nothing from the consequences of their tragic behaviors. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
