In fact, it seems a little sad to me that a college-educated person would have zero curiosity about literature, music, and poetry that mean a great deal to other people. Respecting privacy is great; I'm not saying anyone should seek out information that is meant only for members. But to really have no interest? If that's true, it's unfortunate IMHO.

I don't think it's true that people here have literally no interest. It almost bothers me when people say that other rituals would be meaningless or that they have no interest in others because it's like they're putting down other rituals. They mean well when they say it, of course, but it makes it sounds as if in their mind, other rituals are worthless. I also think that it's just rhetoric. I think that most people here probably have at least a tiny bit of curiosity about other GLOs rituals. Reading another ritual would not be meaningless at all- it would probably be pretty relatable to the reader and make the reader understand the roots of that org more. It would even probably give them more respect for and interest in the org. Just my two cents.
