Rhi-Rhi:
Dearest Fellow Gospels,

_______I have been thinking.  (I know, that is amazing.  Hold the applause until the end, please.)

_______"Whatever have you been thinking, Indigo?" you might ask, gentle Gospel, but there is no need to ask for I shall illumine you posthaste. I have been thinking that in battling our brothers, justified though we are, we may be missing out on some golden opportunities. Do not get me wrong - we live in a Pilot eat Pilot world - but remember: not every Pilot is a Pilot because he wanted to be one. Many are Pilots because they had no other choice.

_______That sounds obvious, considering who we are and why were are doing what we are doing. However, I think that in fighting our fight, it can be easy to lose sight of that fact. There are plenty of Pilots who are not Gospels but who may still agree with our mission. They are just too afraid to act - and their fear is valid. Death is nothing to laugh about. I know, we cannot afford to suffer cowards, but I will come back to this point later.

_______With others, it is not only fear that holds them back. In a sense, we Gospels are gifted. We have capitalized upon tricks and skills that the others lack, found loopholes that others are blind to. Not everyone can be a Gospel, even if they agree with us. They simply do not have the capacity. They would be caught in an instant.

_______"But Indigo, why are you telling me all this? What is the point?"

_______The point, gentle Gospel, is that there is no point. No, I tease. The point is that I believe we should focus our efforts on not only educating the masses and bringing them to our side, but that we should attempt to do that with Pilots as well. Some do not fight because they do not believe they can, or they know not how. If they cannot be a Gospel, how else can they resist? An even better question is how can they effectively resist? So instead they throw their hands up in surrender and go with the system.

_______Many Pilots are genuinely lost and genuinely love what they have. I am not talking about them. I am interested in finding a way to include the Pilots who are not Gospels, but would have been had circumstances been different, or the fence-sitters that might be swayed to our side with the right incentives. Thus far we have been focusing on candidates and citizens. That is not quite good enough for me. How many of you are close to other Pilots? There is no way to know if your friend or lover is a Gospel or not, and chances are they are not. On a less sentimental vein, the more Pilots on our side, the better.

_______There has to be a way to save them, too. We have a lot of brilliant minds here among us. I am certain if anyone can figure out something, we can, because while I realize and have long accepted that being a Gospel means I may one day have to face my friends - I want to try and save them first.

Wow, like totally awesome Indy. I might, like, actually somewhat agree with you. I'm just gonna like, totally add in the fact, that like remember that there is totally mental conditioning when we like, go through the program.

So, while, like some of the Pilots might be like, all nice and stuff, they like, can totally not have shaken that brainwashing. I mean, like, there are some totally loyal Pilots there. And, like, it’s not, the totally obvious ones. Like our favorite incompetent seeker and his, like, little follower.

And, like, it might be better then sitting around, like doing nothing, which, by the way, is like, totally boring and lame. That stupid little radio program is doing more, like, good then, like we are. But, like, lets all, like, totally keep in mind, they might, like, totally dig us and stuff, but like, they have had too much of that propaganda stuff beaten into their heads to, like, really be able to do anything.

Rhi-Rhi:
Precisely. Good point on the brainwashing bit.

We agreed on something, Sera. I shall have to input this into my calendar. ~_^
