   New theory: if you see the world as Good Vs Evil, there's no room to see it as a systemic 'thing'. War is easier to imagine than healing, or global ecosystems.

     You may stop viewing "the" "world" as a "systemic 'thing'" but thereby not cease to view it as a drama of antagonistic beings, on a stage, interacting, persuing archetypical themes and stories, involving beings seen and unseen... It is perhaps the desire to view "the" "world" as one systemic thing that is the more unhealthy view, esp. when it comes as materialistic holism à la Wiener, Weaver, Mead, Bateson, Prigogine, Lovelock, Meadows, Luhmann, and their followers.
