These 8 postures are employed in every placebo’s church:
Loiterer – Will belief any church simply to tap into the group electricity.
Celebrity – Shallow believer doing it for the props from the community.
Gatekeeper – Un-believer doing it for the authority.
Crusader – In it for the swordplay and spoils
Vandal – Feigns loyalty for opportunity to destroy
Charlatan – Wants to feel helpful (powerful) more than they want to be accurate
Monk – Believer who is too afraid to go outside
Practitioner – Studies every form of posture and incorporates what works
