Still darned good shooting Ammo Alamo 🙂

Maybe we should assign him a theme song…I nominate one from the Rolling Stones: Turd on the run.;-)

Please feel free to carry on “analysing”, from here to eternity. No one really gives a damn.

As to your last paragraph, Hubbard’s works are stuffed full of such stuff, which means you haven’t even bothered reading any of it.

FP, supposed “direct observation” can lead to conclusions such as that the world is flat, and the sun circles the earth. Those are fundamental things that were observed from the dawn of civilization – and yet they were completely wrong, weren’t they?

Observation has to be combined with scientific method and analysis – otherwise it’s surprisingly easy to be completely mistaken (if not even fooled), and to fall into traps such as confusing correlation and causation.

If Hubbard had access to timeless knowledge and wisdom, and was intent on freeing humanity and making people more rational, why didn’t he teach proper rigorous scientific analysis, and educate followers about the traps of perception and belief that lead people to being fooled by their senses, and can even lead to their being controlled and manipulated?

Right Logicproof, like how a person’s DIRECT observation of Hubtard after living with him for YEARS is “anecdotal” rather than a PRIMARY SOURCE.

You’re the most idiotic person I’ve ever encountered on the interwebtubes. You don’t even realize people can read ALL of your drivel not just what you haven’t forgotten you posted.

What ARE you insanely blathering on about now Logicproof?

Correct — started as “Mission All Clear”. It was originally Terri Gamboa and Norman Starkey and maybe some others, run by Dave Miscavige as “Special Pjt Ops.”

Total bullshit. Some of the most physically sick people I’ve ever seen in Scientology were OTVIIs or VIIIs. I used to wonder: “Why is it OK with them to be sick like this?” Now, don’t laugh. I thought that because these people were “Cause Over Life” i.e, OtVII, VIII, that they just COULDN’T be sick or disabled or whatever WITHOUT THEIR PERMISSION. Yes, I believed that, back in the day. They were Cause Over Life so why would they be ok with having these body problems? It was always a puzzlement to me because my own physical health was great and always had been, but if I were sick with some debilitating condition and I were Cause Over Life – Presto, I’d zap that illness immediately! So I wondered why they didn’t.

Ok, now you can laugh, and believe me, its TOTALLY fine if you do, because you’re not going to be laughing harder than I am now as I type this. I mean, honestly, folks, feel free, its too funny, as you really can’t make this shit UP 🙂 🙂 🙂 A team of comedy writers in Mel Brooks’ apartment couldn’t come up with this stuff!

My avatar has been photo-shopped. The original target was intended to look exactly like this, but the vagaries of smallbore rifle and shooter accuracy at 50 yards (from a rest) left my target with a crooked smile, so me and Mr Photoshop gave him some dental work.
