Once, I asked someone from my religious community (who doesn't know I'm part of a multiple system) what he thought of people who have more than one soul. And he said "you mean multiple personalities, don't you? This is a disorder. You see, everyone has multiple personalities from time to time. They see an issue and they can't decide what to do, part of them says "do it!" and the other part says "do something else!" and so they split for a time. But then they make the decision and are back to being one person again. It becomes a disorder when the person is split all the time and this is unhealthy."
So I didn't say anything to that and he still doesn't know we're plural. WE are out on a "need to know" basis and lots of people simply don't need to know.
