This most often occurs in informal ways, but on some occasions it occurs in public celebrations of the development of our healthy personal relationships. Such celebrations may embody both traditional and imaginative new patterns of acceptance, acknowledgement, affirmation, respect, support and encouragement. There are some people who do not enjoy the acceptance, acknowledge, affirmation, respect, support and encouragement of their most integrative and intimate relationships with their closest friends and lovers. They thus cannot enjoy both personal and communal integrity. When we cannot be open and honest about our most integrative intimate relationships with our closest friends and lovers we are then driven into unhealthy patterns of silence, deception, deceit, duplicity and dishonesty. Those people whose behaviors motivate and guide such disintegrative behaviors often regard themselves as superior servants of God---because they do no know God as the true God of Love. In ignorance they often believe that God is a harsh God of alienative judgements and punishments---whom they have conceived in the image of their own abusive dysfunctional parents. Our alienative relationships will not heal---so long as we conceive ourselves in the image of a harsh God of alienative judgements and punishments---whom we believe to have unlimited power to behave as have our most abusive and dysfunctional parents. So long as we are fundamentally committed to perpetuating our beliefs in our status as superior servants of a powerful and authoritarian God who seeks to control our thoughts, feelings, decisions, and actions---so long we will nurse our most destructive conflicts with each other in order to give perverse meaning to our loveless lives. We need not continue in that way. We can give up such loveless ways in favor of supporting we each other's needs for acceptance, acknowledgement, affirmation, respect, support and encouragement---of our most integrative intimate relationships with our closest friends and lovers.
