Jere – Lol – I was being facetious. Somewhere in the course of his travels in some foreign country he attempted to set up the “Hubbard College of Philosophy” or something like that but the authorities got wise to his scheme and booted him out.

PeaceMaker – I agree. The point is that scn was once “affordable” to a middle or upper middle income person, something probably most current scientologists are unaware of. If you earned four or five dollars an hour you could trade a week or two of wages for an intensive of auditing. Such a deal!

Zee Moo, It’s GREAT that any association with scn or its too-well-known front groups is a curse now. It’s not only celebrities rushing to escape that sinking ship.

BTW: Did you change your avi? The hat and horns seem new; I like it.

Skyler. I could be ‘WAY off, but I took “Battle Lady” to be an ‘auto-correct’. That “feature” has been a great source of amusement since it was (necessarily) introduced for tablets and smartphones.

Scammed no More said:”Lesli Beilhart is pure evil.”

ANYONE who uses LRH tech in the way he intended it to be used is pure evil, even if they “honestly” have the purist of intentions. The “tech” never was apparently workable except in the so-carefully-controlled environment of scn, and that apparency was obviously false to anyone with any integrity. One of the friends I had to leave behind when I was beached now seems to be one of the wiseguys touting Tubby’s techniques. I’m sad for her as she could do better in an HONEST job selling ice machines to Eskimos.

I especially liked the “our tech is so standard it makes Ponzi look like a pansy!!!”

Ammo said, in part:”WISE, CCHR, and Narconon to give them some legitimacy.”:

The front groups only APPEAR to give them a patina of legitimacy. And IF they get caught using the SOP of scn, scn’s minions will diallow them faster than Tom Cruise can bust up an ankle doing stunts he’s not qualified to attempt.

Cavalier said:”Thank you David Miscavige!”

Agreement. No one else could have so thoroughly dismantled scientology as quickly as Davey-Boy. That’s the sign of a truly evil genius of a sort.

One of the great things about RB is that it never goes “stale”, it’s always spot-on.

Hope you enjoyed taking off, Aqua.
