How do you think we should proceed?

Don't proceed. Stay at the drawing board until you figure out a viable attack. Stay there until you die, if you have to.

This seems like a rather extreme position to me. I'd be curious to hear you explain your thinking.

There isn't much to explain. I just think that taking steps towards cultishness has lower expected utility than doing nothing.
