There is no way that one person can force another person to give the gift which is given in being willfully vulnerable in the honest presence of an intimate friend. Violent actions which force vulnerability generate alienation, not intimacy---no matter how close people may be to each other physically. True intimacy cannot be forced. True honesty cannot be forced. True friendship cannot be forced. Intimacy, honesty and friendship are not technical accomplishments achieved by the following of any particular set of rules and regulations which specify how to achieve them, nor by any prescribed ritual. Salvation is not possible in the absence of true intimacy, honesty, and friendship---and so salvation cannot be achieved by the following of any particular set of rules and regulations, nor by any prescribed ritual.
