[QUOTE="MGibster, post: 8093415, member: 4534"] In a setting where psions were a fact of life, all five of those major institutions would likely deal with them in some way. Politics: There would almost certainly be laws regarding the use of psionic abilities. Are psions regular citizens, wards of society, or outlaws? Educational: Are the nascent abilities of young psions recognized and fostered by society or are they repressed? What does society teach people about psions? Economic: How do they fit into the economy? Do we have a bunch of clairvoyant individuals forecast this year's corn crop? Do psychic surgeons remove cancers in minutes that medical technology cannot cure? How does gambling in Vegas work when you have gamblers who can predict the future, read minds, or use telekinesis to affect the roulette wheel? Family: Do psions marry other psions? How does a family of normies deal with a petulant 4 year old that can light things on fire with their mind? Are psion children taken from their families making them wards of the state? Religion: Are psions blessed? Cursed? Or are they just the same as everyone else they just have different abilities as we are all equal in the eyes of God? What does religion tell us about psions?
