I suspect the telic congruence supports civilized society whereas organismic congruence does the opposite. This would imply that there's a tipping point where telic can no longer accommodate organismic, and if corrective measures are not taken, the civilization collapses. History seems to confirm this outcome. It seems to me that St. Paul dealt with these same aspects of human nature in his letters to the churches, as recorded in the New Testament of the Bible.
