But, but CPO, how can you be criticizing the organization that is spearheading planetary clearing?

There, I just gave you my own personal favorite cult cliche - spearheading.  Ever notice they don&#039;t DO anything - instead, everything is &quot;spearheaded&quot; by them. Hilarious!]]></description>

Yep.  Please have some happiness in knowing that the name of LRH (and DM) will go down in history in the ranks of David Koresh, Jim Jones, and Charles Manson...  Actually, now that I think about it, that thought is terrifying.  Will Miscavige fizzle out or blow up?  Let&#039;s all pray for the fizzle.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The thing I will never understand is that the rank and file believe everything that L. Ron Hubbard said, or burped, snored or farted, was somehow sacred and ought to be carved into marble.  

Many of these promotional fluff pieces sent out to the members tend to quote the almighty word of that rotten-toothed shitty science fiction writer.

Listen to some of those tapes of LRH on Ortega&#039;s site, especially when he snaps at minions in impatience.  This is a man who should be held in contempt, and his amateur orations mocked and ridiculed.]]></description>

These &quot;special briefings&quot; are just to get people into the org so reges can coerce donations from them. If you get that the primary goal is fundraising, not conveying information, then it makes more sense.]]></description>

What would really be a kick in the A$$ would be if a huge donation of money from a wealthy or well connected donor were to become available to purchase one of the CLOSED organization&#039;s buildings&quot; and then THAT into a recovery shelter!!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I noticed the line in that ad: &quot;Auditors are valuable.&quot;  But i just listened to Tony Ortega on the Mythinformed podcast talking about how Scientology doesn&#039;t train auditors anymore and he (or others) were speculating that maybe it was because of the Lisa Macpherson murder/accidental death case.

David Miscavige was directly involved in her case, and having her die on his watch was possibly the closest he came to being in trouble for criminal activity.  They speculated that maybe this scared him so much that he realized that auditing was riskier than he is comfortable with and therefore changed the church&#039;s emphasis on auditing to direct fundraising to avoid future problems like this.  The activities of the Lisa Macpherson Trust (the LMT) back in the early 2000s probably solidified his opinion on this matter.  What do you think?

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mikerindersblog.org/clearing-the-planet-in-striking-distance/#comment-171933&quot;&gt;McCarran&lt;/a&gt;.

Hi McCarran!    I was channel surfing when I found that A &#038; E was rerunning Season I.  I called a few people to let them know, some have either seen only a few episodes, some haven&#039;t seen any.....but I watched again Marc and Claire &#038; she once again BROKE my heart with her ordeal with a forced abortion. To see Aron break down over the sudden passing away of his brother...was nearly unbearable to watch his pain.

It is going to take a MUCH better brain than mine to figure out how folks who want out will have access to something like a &quot;safe haven&quot; to go to for help.  

For me right now, a senior citizen living on a small Social Security check, that type of money is beyond my means as it would take more than likely millions of dollars to get this type operation to even get up and running  Small store front rentals in areas like Hemet or Clearwater would be way beyond costly. Then there is also getting &quot;approval&quot; in ANY area for a storefront to be used as a &quot;safe haven&quot; where people would be &quot;living&quot; since most buildings are COMMERCIAL only.

Add to that we know damned well if any type rescue center would be put ANYWHERE near Hemet or Clearwater......the CHOKE HOLD on the members in that area would be tightened like a noose around their necks &#038; they&#039;d be under serious threat to even GO near a rescue center.

Anyone who has any high level power in any form of government, anyone with a lot of money &#038; notoriety (hello celebs &#038; other wealthy people), anyone WELL CONNECTED,  can someone &quot;financially front&quot; something. or THINK of someway to help.  

With Season II in the making, hopefully it will open some eyes and draw people with power and money &#038; access to good LEGAL counsel most of us can&#039;t afford to get some type of rescue center up and running.  Let&#039;s hope that is exactly what happens, HERE in the USA and overseas as well.
