					<description><![CDATA[I was recently reminded of this piece of Hubbard nuttiness. By the time the 80&#8217;s rolled around, the new &#8220;tech&#8221; from Source became patently ridiculous. &#8220;Pain and Sex&#8221; and other strange rants would appear sporadically, the one here is one of the kookiest. Though of course the story of OT III is hard to top [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[They actually still promote this as if these words are absolute truth. And it happens repeatedly. If Hubbard said it, no matter when it was or how much transpired subsequently, they still present it as gospel truth. The last ACC lecture was in the early 1960&#8217;s. So what &#8220;OT processes&#8221; is this referring to? The [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Truth in advertising? From scientology? Must be inadvertent. There is plenty of evidence that there is no such thing as an &#8220;OT&#8221; despite what Hubbard claimed. But now, it seems we are getting closer to the truth in the scientology claims about this. Now we are seeing &#8220;virtual OT&#8217;s&#8221;.. I wonder if there is really [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This just struck me as the ultimate in ridiculous, enforced &#8220;success stories.&#8221; It is a perfect example of the &#8220;technology&#8221; proclaiming something and then the person who pays for it comes out the other side certain they have achieved what they were told they were going to achieve beforehand.

					<description><![CDATA[It is sometimes quite astonishing the things scientology promotes. Here is another &#8220;success story&#8221; from an OT VIII. They are proud of this, and want the world to know. I read it and think to myself how crazy and deluded they sound. Yet they think this is the most incredible recommendation possible. I have bolded [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I came across this the other day. It is a High Winds magazine from 1995. High Winds is the &#8220;magazine of the Sea Org&#8221; and only a few were ever published, usually to commemorate &#8220;Sea Org Day&#8221;. This is the edition where Captain Miscavige (he now considers referring to him this way to be improper/derisive and [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This is a microcosm of so many things inside the shrinking bubble world of scientology. Selling guy is trying to offload his “OT” bracelet (at a loss of course, anything scientology is ALWAYS overpriced) to get money to do the Purif. Probably REDO the Purif. After all he was &#8220;going OT&#8221; or was already OT [&#8230;]]]></description>

This woman was in the SO &#8212; the LRH Host on the Freewinds.  She had to leave &#8220;temporarily&#8221; to take care of her dying mother?
