Good point that the Freedumb Mag editor asked a question timidly and the answer just covered him in an avalanche. It’s not too late for that journalist to leave. Just walk away. Your self-respect is worth more than any stinking job, especially if that job is working for a morally bankrupt man and organization.

And eventually they own your butt with their assectomy.

No JPC … the wallet itself is not extracted … just the contents.

I Yawnalot – “… intelligence is a finely tuned instrument often waylaid under the weight of public opinion.” Nice.

Zana: I’ve always found that the most powerful way to fight what you think is wrong is to hurl their own words back against them to point out hypocrisy. Works every time and you probably can’t be successfuly sued for that.

@ I Yawnalot — “if Scientology never worked in the first place, why would miscavige have to alter it?”

My thought: it’s never made a single documented Clear or OT as Hubbard originally promised them.

McSavage knew this — knew that the ultimate product was an undeliverable lie. So he had to rewrite it all, repackage it, and resell it to keep money flowing in. Heck, maybe he even had some slim hope that if he revised everything it would work — though I doubt it. I do think he knew he could sell this to the throngs: “It’s clean tech now. The SP errors are edited out. Now watch your results!”

The true ability gained in Scientology is self-deception. That’s why the dwindling masses deceive themselves with Alice in Wonderland graphs of non-existent success while they manically applaud the fine clothes of the naked Commodore.

Yawn, In the mean time, here is a video of davie’s SO honor guard doing Ideal drill:

JPC,

As I recall, his tightest inner circle also gave him a bronzed and gold plated pair of boxing gloves for his work with Ted Koppel on live TV (Nightline, 1992).

I Yawnalot, yes, it won’t be long now.
