I cannot generalize because I mostly move in very specific milieus. I experienced people in MA to be the most sincere, i.e. they tended not to invest as much into a simulation of jubilation they did not feel.

You definitely don't find that in German, Russian, Swedish culture, where love and excitement are private, intimate emotions. Even in Italy, France and Spain the semantics would be different, because love and excitement are not understood as vital parts of a business relationship

It was not love- whatever it may have been called. It was licentious predatory voyeurism at the expense of an innocent girl in the name of saving her soul by "bringing her to Jesus" w public confession. I doubt she went back to school that year.

It depends on what they saw as her true being: the one that runs the Jesus code, or the one that resists it. When seen from the perspective of the mind virus, defending its integrity against the host may be the loving thing to do, no?

nono, it just results from the incentives

As in biology, the incentives co-emerge with the organsim. The organsim *creates* the environment it evolves in. Incidentally, this may *account* for some of the asexulity in male millennials and increased transexual phenomena. ( Speculative).
