Evolution takes time. A lot of it too.

The game/experiment you mention sounds right in accordance with what I know in my life experiences. A huge change or event happens, most often suddenly and unexpectedly, and a person's way of thinking can be completely turned around and tossed inside out. One's priorities shift...change position on the great internal list of important things...and one's pov widens (or narrows) accordingly.

Sometimes it's a case of changing the method of informing the people, as mentioned. Sometimes, Hell and Earth couldn't change that person's mind. Some people are black and white with hard edges and no blurring. Some are all kinds of gray with blurry images.

If the right person went to the right person and presented the right information the right way, I see change. I see personal growth and evolution and the beginning of the cure for cancer.

But....how often does that happen?
