Kayla was tabling for an on-campus Christian ministry group called Chi Alpha when she agreed to speak with me, and believes Jesus came to her a year ago during a religious event called 'Break Away'. Rather than discuss the reliability of faith during our initial talk, I instead decided to see if Kayla would commit to lowering her confidence from the 100 percent if that turned out to be the case. In essence, this was a discussion about a discussion. Although I searched for Kayla to see if she would like to talk with me again, I unfortunately never spotted her, nor did I receive any messages from her. I ran into the lead pastor of Kayla's group twenty days after this talk, and Kyle and I ended up having quite a discussion: https://youtu.be/Tkpz5btDdgM While I don't normally mention non-believing groups like the SSA (Secular Student Alliance) to my interlocutors, it seemed appropriate after Kayla implied that losing faith would "take away everything that I have". Music provided by Chet Hovatter. Mistakes: As usual, I should have spent more time building rapport with the students and Kayla at the start of the encounter. Please let me know if you notice any mistakes so that I can address them here for self-improvement.
