What would constitute an apocalypse? When you say “I want to see what happens” do you mean you want to let the situation develop organically but set certain boundaries, a cap on damages, so to say?
That’s exactly what I mean. I’m not directing the situation, but will be participating.
I’d like to confront and see people confront her religious bias, without the result being excessive flame or her being backed in a corner without a chance to even marginally nudge her mind in the right direction. She’s smart, will not make explicit religious statements, and will back her claims with cherry picked reseach. Naturally the level of mindkill will depend on other participants too, and I will treat this as some sort of a rationality test if they manage to keep their calm. If they lose it I guess it’s understandable.
I guess I’ll be using lots of some version of “agree denotationally, disagree connotationally”.
Finnish indeed, and even with our completely watered down version of belief in belief christianity there’s always a religious nut or two to ruin your day.
Volatile and emotional? Most lwers per capita was it? Is it because we’re in the highest need for rationality?

Are the participants Finnish? I am tempted to start remembering jokes about the volatile and emotional character of Finns… :-)
