Imprudent fear often undermines our personal and communal integrity; injecting destructive fears of failure, rejection and excommunication. Such fears undermine our self confidence and self esteem which are essential to creative work. Imprudent fears rob us of the ability to be creatively ready to deal with unexpected environmental changes. If our fears have undermined our personal and communal integrity---how can we hope to meet the inevitable challenges of changes in our astronomical, planetary, ecosystem, international, national, community, organizational, religious, professional, and work-place environments. We cannot control our environment. We do have the ability to choose how to respond to environmental changes with personal and communal integrity---if we are not paralyzed by imprudent fears. All people, efforts, programs, institutions, organizations, professions and religions which promote alienative fears thereby threaten our personal and communal integrity---without which there is nothing to value, respect or cherish. In the absence of personal and communal integrity there is nothing worth defending. If in our efforts to defend that which we believe is most worth defending we undermine personal and communal integrity---we have committed personal and communal suicide. We will do well to be prudently fearful of all that threatens our personal and communal integrity---including our most cherished and worshipped: ideals, values, principles, rituals, doctrines, beliefs, scriptures and religious leaders. None of them should be confused with the creative God of Love who is the ground of our being true to ourselves and each other---within the context of true security enjoyed through the offering and acceptance of the freedom to be safely vulnerable when being honest about our experiences, perceptions, beliefs, and emotions.
