Hypothesis: two pluralistic paths to God converge “Where Work Meets Faith.” Pluralistic means each reinforces the other.
In Natural Law everyone has innate needs to satisfy. It is how we are all alike. Since 2017, over half a million Academic Research articles cite, Edward L. Deci and Richard M. Ryan who state:
“The findings have led to the postulate of three innate psychological needs– competence, autonomy, and relatedness which when satisfied yield enhanced self-motivation and mental health and when thwarted lead to diminished motivation and well-being.”
Ryan finds “Remarkable Convergence” with Loquate’s primary values and innate needs.
Primary values converge as the Smart® habits that satisfy innate needs:
The innate need of Competence is satisfied by the primary value of
– Attaining goals or other ends, not necessarily preconceived as goals, but which become goals once experienced.
The innate need of Autonomy is satisfied by the primary value of
– Operating in an area of meaningful expansion for yourself, that is your interiorly preferred work.
The innate need of Relatedness is satisfied by the primary value of
– Doing that which is truly in the best interests of others.
Feelings: ARE THE MOST SCIENTIFIC PART OF NATURAL LAW. It is a natural law that all human beings are born with feelings. Our feelings tell us if we are on target, or off target, as a human being. Feelings are hardwired into the human chassis. As a computer analogy, feelings become part of our operating system.
The Smart® Natural Law Rule of Feelings is this: If one or more of the primary values is present in an experience, and the experience does not go against any of the other primary values, you will feel good! If the experience goes against one or more of the primary values, you will feel bad, even if other primary values are present.
Loquate has been building community for environments since 1970. The Research cited also shows that the more people focus on goal content with selfish aims, like money, image, power etc., which do not directly satisfy innate needs and often crowd them out, the less happy they are—even when they attain them. The more they place value on community, the greater their well-being and happiness.
Primary values converge as the Smart® habits that satisfy innate needs. Open to all mankind, like sailors eating limes to prevent scurvy, Smart® habits overcome the scurvy of the human spirit which is diminished motivation and well-being. Doing so leads to peace, happiness and joy for the member, and increased community in every group of which the member is a part.
The need for repentance has never been clearer. As we move away from ethnocentrism or ego worship believing our way is best for everyone, Smart® habits increase our wellbeing and the wellbeing of everyone around us. True repentance for thwarting the innate needs of any person increases our ego littleness. Satisfying their innate needs diminishes our own ego and leads to our own happiness or joy. In joy we do not get all that we want but we get enough.

Always Tell the Truth | Gerda Weitzel
Gerda Weitzel, a 30 year teacher with a Masters in Learning Disabilities, will tell how another teacher’s love of the Blessed Mother inspired Gerda to become a teacher. Hear Gerda’s touching story of Marilyn, a 9 year old, and a class that honored hard work. She said: “God works in mysterious ways and it is so important to accept it.”
This page of wonderful stories demonstrates the validity of the hypothesis for any viewer. Hypothesis: two pluralistic paths to God converge “Where Work Meets Faith.” Pluralistic means each reinforces the other.
