Sure you can, but honestly some people will simply never accept the world MC is trying to build and should just be fought and left obsolete. Annah honestly should be one of them and ideally shouldn't be persuaded or humored moving forward, just neutralized. As the guy you're replying to already stated, even if you wanted to humor her, there's currently no benefit from a score higher than 6: just use your leverage elsewhere.

(That said, I thought I'd humored her just fine eking out a 5 only to run into a wall here. I'd probably rather edit variable#266 rather than replay the whole synod and Erosian War just to fix her feelings if there's a lot of fallout from these negotiations down the line.) Actually, Annah has been shown to be surprisingly open to reason and to ammend her views, both in this update and during the synod. She may never fully agree with us, but I'm quite certain getting on her good side will prove useful in the future.

I'm confused about that claim that you only need a synod score of 6. Looking at the math, that's only possible if you prevent Sarai from having sex, and I would be honestly surprised if that was a popular choice. Otherwise, you would need a minimum score of 9 in most cases, 7 if the church diverged and you leave the mines alone.
