Just a random thought.

Typically, when a group wants to recruit new members, they have to sell themselves.

That was done here. This organization is counting on the fact that the presentation is done in such a manner as to make people want to be accepted.

They make it sound as if it is some selective group that only a few can qualify for.

Something else I noticed was that question 17 is the only one that doesn't contain a personal pronoun.

Probably doesn't mean anything, but it does stand out.

True. People typically want to feel as if they belong. They did a good job of getting people to actually want to become a member of Hymn of One even after already knowing that HoO and the Order is bad.

Yes. It is indicative of the type of person they want to recruit. As a comparison, look at military recruiting.

The US Army recruits people by offering them money for college. The US Air Force does so by offering technical training. The US Navy recruits by offering the idea of travel and adventure.

The US Marine Corps recruits by asking people to test themselves, and maybe they can become one of "The Few, The Proud, The Marines.

This most closely resembles the HoO recruitment method. Like Marine recruiting, the HoO is saying "maybe you can be one of us."

Actually, that just made me want to fail the test. But I guess that's just me.

You and me both. I don't want to be a round peg in a round hole. I want the freedom that goes along with Free Will.

I heard about the "right" answers, but I answered honestly anyway. I got a 70%. I guess maybe the fact that they're looking for certain qualities is supposed to tell us something about the organization?

Nope. I scored a 7.5.

Very Happy
