“The Int Base not being “Clear” is like half the people in the Vatican never having taken Communion.”

Mike, you really are a funny guy. Laughing at these little comments of yours is very theraputic for me, you have no idea.

Ive been to Detroit plenty in recent years. Its waaaaay nicer than in the early 90’s. Crime and violence are down as well. Jobs are moving out of state more than the areas you mentioned due to car companies setting up shop in different areas not because Detroit is a “rat hole”. Scn is going to fail there, in Battle Creek and the metro org for one reason: scn is a scam. Scams have a finite lifetimes and theirs is coming to an end.

Mike, thanks for breaking down the insanity in this comment. It’s hard to fathom.

Well, they could start with the campground at the Int Base.

At a wild guess, I would suspect that considerably LESS than 50% of the staff there are not Clear (a larger percentage may have once been considered Clear. But that status was revoked in one of a number of “evolutions”).

The Int Base not being “Clear” is like half the people in the Vatican never having taken Communion.

All the talk about “Clearing the Planet” and this, the pinnacle of Scientology, is dismally short of this goal.

It may be intended to shame some into action but all it really does is help those asking questions inside the bubble to realize it is a tremendous lie.

I think before trying to clear the planet they should work on clearing one town, village, hamlet or campground first…then see where if anywhere they can aspire to go to.

Al, plowing through the Data Series has definitely been something on the to-do list for a while, but I never can quite seem to find the time to get it done. It’s especially interesting to me personally given my life as a senior numbers geek on Wall Street. I’ll probably post an analysis of this on my blog first and send Mike an e-mail so he can cross-link to it if he wants.

Althoug we might have different views on things we share the view that Slappi needs to go down.

I’m so sure of this that I could bet. I just wonder what will be the moment when he has to disappear fast – of course with the money. It is a cold blooded strategy, a sophisticated plan and he will milk everyone who still is there, with every tool he can think of, till no one is left. Or till he has to appear in court for a deposition. That could become dangerous to him.

Well said. In regards to the second paragraph, that’s exactly what turned me off from the culture within Scientology, and then Scientology itself.

I got the idea early on that I needed to stay grounded in my “real world” job and associations with people, including family and did so. I’m so grateful for it now.
