Ye Shall Be As Gods? – Class 7, Period 3
“Realians,” Juli said, once her students were settled, “are what, in my universe, we have called our organic artificial people.”
“These ‘people’ are mass-produced and designed for specific purposes—and each model is micro-managed down to the their very basic thoughts and emotions. Their personality traits. Mind control, almost, to draw in what we talked about last class—except for one important difference. They never had any other existence.”
“Today we’ll be discussing two of the most common models that are mass-produced. The ‘soldier’ type, and the, for lack of a better term ‘secretarial’ type. What do you think the most desirable traits, and therefore the ones that are most often programmed into their existence, are? What would be the least desirable traits for these two types to have? Why?”
“How many of these desirable traits do you think an ordinary person has? Or an ordinary soldier? Secretary? Keep these questions in mind as you decide for yourselves five traits that would be most useful to have in a soldier, or a secretary. After that, split off to compare and contrast your reasoning for each trait.”
