I still agree that polarization may not be necessarily better than a balance, but I'm convinced that impaul99 doesn't understand polarization. You're drawing far too many connections that I don't think are correct.

Why aren't we both tall and short? Why aren't we every ethnic race? Why haven't we been brought up as a member of every culture? What's wrong with being different?

The first half of that isn't disputed, neither by you or by Steve, near as I read his article.

You don't seem to be understanding polarization. Lightworkers would read a lot of knowledge
for the purpose of giving, whereas darkworkers would write lots of interesting articles
for the purpose of receiving.

You're equating "intention", which is what polarization is focused on, with "action". Again. You do not know anything about Bill Gates' or Google's actual intentions. You cannot determine whether they are darkworkers, lightworkers, or somewhere in between (though they are, like everyone else, probably somewhere in between).
The reason I agree that balance may conceivably be equal to, or better than, polarization is that fear-polarization seems to be a possible counter to Lightworker Syndrome, and that love-polarization may be a possible counter to Darkworker Syndrome. Thus, by moving back and forth, you may be able to move up the levels of consciousness without being heavily afflicted by either syndrome.
