Here "essential" is used to **describe** whatever by its ABSENCE leads to personal and communal disintegration. "Essential" here does NOT mean "most important." The PASSIVE VOICE is used in most of these notes in keeping with the long standing tradition among scientists to describe what is discerned without reference to the unique personal aspects of the author(s). The hope here is to offer descriptions which transcend the characters and experiences of individual persons --- and so eliciting resonances within many different people and their experiences. Here the hope is to offer descriptions which are NOT motivated by personal views regarding the combatants in the current conflicts under discussion. Regrettably, some people may understandably feel that they and the people with whom they are in fellowship have been "targeted". It is hoped that the essentials which are articulated here are chosen and articulated in ways which transcend conscious and unconscious targeting of identifiable fellowships of Christians. It is essential that we as religious leaders consider the likely consequential costs to weak and vulnerable people --- when we as religious leaders make plans to honor and enforce what we regard as important commandments, prohibitions, and prescriptions. This is NOT to say that we can reasonably be indifferent to the arrogance of unconventional people who refuse to honor essential commandments, prohibitions, and prescriptions --- which serve to promote both personal and communal integrity. This is NOT to say that we can reasonably tolerate such indifference --- in ways which encourage such indifference. This IS to say that we need to be careful not to be arrogant or self-righteous in our efforts to affirm and enforce integrative: commandments, prohibitions and prescriptions. This IS to say that we need to be careful that our enforcement efforts do not engender greater overall harm than would occur in the absence of our enforcement efforts. This IS to say that we should not seek to earn merit points and honor-badges through our efforts to get people to conform to our conceptions of what they should: need, desire, feel, think, say, fear, and do.
