Number 2 above is interesting. It does seem as if the whole idea of
values is often associated with some group, such as a church, or the NRA,
in the context of which people can display their values, and have them
approved and validated. I'd like to think that you could be independent
and discreet and still have a value system, though.

Rath was doing his work in the 60s, and was interested in values clarification
in the k-12 environment. He was assuredly not promoting any existing
structure, but helping people figure out their *own* values. Thus his
concept that we must choose our values after we know alternative
possibilities, that we understand the consequences, and that we choose freely.
There is a good book called "Values Clarification, Teachers Edition" by
Simon, HOwe and Kirschenbaum, that includes 79 activities and strategies for
getting groups to facilitate the clarification process for their members.
Little Professor can get it for you, it is still in print 20 years later.
