  Disciples are the 90% of their time freaks? Really, that's a qualitatively different world altogether - they're monks. Their entire day is devoted to religious practice. In a lot of ways, it's less stressful than the 60% requirements because you never have to worry about trade-offs; it isn't "my kid's birthday or my job?" anymore.
