Can we believe with integrity --- that God in Loving Ways permits domineering religious leaders to decide whom to dominate, coerce and violate --- and that then God insures that the bitter fruits of domination, coercion and violence must follow? Or, does GOD HIMSELF tell domineering leaders whom to dominate, coerce and violate --- and then God insures that the bitter fruits of domination, coercion and violence must follow? Would that be equivalent to God being Himself the Ultimate Dominant Abuser? Is God Love? ------------------------------- Is GOD in charge of DOMINATION and of insuring its bitter fruits? OR Does GOD contract out DOMINATION & insure its bitter fruits? ------------------------------- Where are the boundaries between human freedom and the bitter fruits of human freedom; between human domination and the bitter fruits of human domination? Where are the boundaries between NATURAL CAUSES AND- EFFECTS; and GOD's interventions to insure particular effects to punish humans who do not conform to some prescribed/proscribed forms of human thoughts, desires, decisions and behaviors? Is there a PERSONAL GOD who is IN CHARGE in DOMINEERING WAYS over ALL the details of CAUSE AND EFFECT within the cosmos; over SOME details of CAUSE AND EFFECT within the cosmos; over NO details of CAUSE AND EFFECT within the cosmos? In what way can we most helpfully understand the CAUSES AND EFFECTS of: domination, coercion, violence; anger, resentment, revenge; alienation, estrangement, and EVIL RELATIONSHIPS? What role does our personal God play in our understandings of: domination, coercion, violence; anger, resentment, revenge; alienation, estrangement, and EVIL RELATIONSHIPS? How are we to know and say? What evidence is there which might guide our consideration of these questions? How can we know? Who can know? How can we be sure? Who can be sure? Can we with personal/communal integrity accept the notion that it is GOD'S WILL --- that we accept the answers to these EPISTEMOLOGICAL QUESTIONS as given to us --- by DOMINEERING THEOLOGIANS who have given essentially no consideration --- to our own experiences and discernments of the bitter fruits of our domineering leaders' --- motivations, thoughts, desires, decisions, behaviors, arrogance, self righteousness, alienations and excommunications? How then are we to transcend and subvert the misleading attitudes, assumptions, beliefs and convictions which motivate, drive and guide "The Domination System", "The Fallen Powers That Be", and "Our Collusive Games of Mutual Self Deception"? Trough the use of what evidence? On what authority? The above considerations make clear that epistemological considerations are biased and unworthy of trust, respect and support so long as --- the epistemological considerations do NOT include PUBLIC, OPEN AND HONEST DISCUSSIONS/DIALOGUE WITH VICTIMS OF: 1. Dominant religious leaders. 2. Dominant political leadership through Emperor Constantine and the Nicean Creed. 3. Institutionalized religions which have concentrated/corrupted power in men. 4. Repressions of honesty, openness, intimacy, sexuality, and integrative desires. 5. The sanctification of dichotomous thinking. 6. Religious/political wars over "The Fallen Powers That Be". 7. Divorces between affect and reason. 8. Denigrations of unconventional personal and communal integrities. 9. Attacks upon integrative sanctuary- communities. 10. Arrogance and self righteousness.
