Say you hated a specific god. Maybe you only distrust them instead of hate them.

Then they die, and a reincarnation takes the god's place. Maybe it even looks like the same, but the old memories are gone.

Could you give that reincarnation a second chance in spite of your old feelings?

[Schuldig's become more contemplative thanks to his new, empathetic feelings towards his own followers and what would happen if their prayers stopped being answered. Thanks, Eros.]

Expose him to similar events and watch.

You should probably reconsider that without knowing the events - or cause - I'm referring to.

If you don't experiment how will you ever learn?

Re: anon; text

[volksdaemon]

Oh it's not about experimentation.
I know exactly what I'd *have* to do to him.
But getting back to my original point, doing something like that...
Well now, it wouldn't endear me to the public at all, and here I am trying to be respectable again.

Respectable again? Oh, my. What could have made you lose that status in the first place?

[ Unbeknownst to Hakkai, that question makes Schuldig start to wonder himself - namely whether or not he still actually thought any of it was fundamentally wrong in the first place. The deep amounts of consideration it requires starts to fight against the hold Rin has over him, so he can only answer vaguely. ]

Nothing that I wouldn't do again if necessary.
Sometimes those things have to happen.

How very interesting. Well, if your little experiment with your familiar person isn't worth it, you'll just have to take it on faith that he's the same.

Nice turn of phrase.
We'll see how it turns out.

[He's laughing mainly because oh if only Farfarello could hear 'take it on faith.']
