Thanks for clearing that up Jon.

Had it bas akwards.

Anti-war got revenue from allowing ads on their site and I musta got the two things confused.

I agree 10000 bucks is really chump change when it comes to advertising and it looks like getting some geek to tweak ads will probably be more beans out then in which is typical of how the Church operates these days.

No, they are not actually getting any money from Google, they are getting an advertising credit every month.

You’re correct. Look at the effectiveness of the superbowl ad. Like money down the drain.

Do you really think there are *just* 2 sides to this?

I’m pretty sure you have the CCHR grant business backwards. If a company wants to run adwords ads on Google, they have to pay Google, on some basis, such as $x per 1000 people who see the ad on a Google search results page.

Google is offering to let them run adwords ads, for free, up to $10,000 worth of ad presentations (or however Google accounts for them.)

It’s not that actual money is going to CCHR, Google is just giving them free runs of a little text-only ad, which would otherwise cost CCHR money.

CCHR is asking for additional donations, so that they can hire someone to tune the text of their adwords ads, in hopes of attracting people to click on the ads, and to improve the effectiveness of the website that is the destination when you click on the ads. At least, if you take them at their word, this is what they’d do with the money.

To be honest I’m not sure how effective that $10,000 worth of ads is likely to be.

Thanks, Remoteviewed, for producing the full quote. I simply cut and pasted the quote from the fundraising letter as it was presented there, as I said at the top of my post. But now that we have the full quote, is your point that this makes sense?

Let’s take a look at these statements by L Ron Hubbard:

ALANZO. I HAVE DELETED THE REST OF THIS. I HAVE ALSO SOME OF ROBIN’S RESPONSES. EVERYONE HAS HAD THE FULL ISSUE TO READ IF THEY WISH. THEY CAN MAKE UP THEIR OWN MIND AS TO WHAT IT MEANS AND WHETHER IT STANDS UP TO SCRUTINY. I JUST DONT WANT THIS TO CONTINUE FURTHER AND THIS COMMENT WILL START A WHOLE NEW ROUND OF RESPONSES AND COUNTER-RESPONSES.
