Such people often are preoccupied with abstractions --- to the exclusion of open and honest dialogue among people about their own direct personal experiences. How are we to recognize the differences between healthy and sick human relationships --- if we avoid open and honest dialogue about our own direct personal experiences of the healthy and sick human relationships which most profoundly affect us? Is it reasonable to pretend that we can be well informed through lectures, debates and contentious conflicts over abstract statements/assertions --- in the absence of open and honest dialogue about our own direct personal experiences? Often through collusive games of mutual self deception people agree that it is not good, proper or decent to engage in open and honest dialogue about those direct personal experiences which most profoundly affect us; e.g., political, religious and sexual ones --- around which there have been many disagreements and much conflict. If those conventions are honored --- how are the participants in them to learn how to respond prudently and wisely to changing environmental conditions and so to survive with meaning and satisfaction in the face of change.
