Forget 1991 check sheet, get a 1972 BC check sheet for the asking

That made me laugh very loudly, Grace.

Instead of Guy Fawkes day, we could call it, “Dave’s Fault Day”.

Taking up your comment about the Documentary, Lawrence, what I’m really excited about is that this is going to air on HBO.

Scientologists don’t have to wait in line to see it at a theater (and have OSA take their picture and bust them for seeing it).

They don’t have to go on to the “Evil Internet” to view it.

Just like a magazine in the grocery store checkout line, they can leaf through it without the risk of getting busted. The HBO special will come right to their living rooms. Scientologists will give up just about anything “for their eternity”.

However, because HBO is so popular, they won’t risk missing their favorite episodes of Game of Thrones, Real Time with Bill Maher, Curb your Enthusiasm or Girls by cancelling their HBO service.

Still ins and people on the fence; find out for yourself and watch this. It might be a little too high of a gradient since it talks some smack about Ron, but become informed about what little David Miscavige is doing with YOUR hard-earned money that YOU GAVE for social betterment and “saving the planet”.

This isn’t some black propaganda campaign to “smear Scientology”. You’ll see actual proof of where your money goes. If it’s going to an improper place/use, don’t you want to know? We fight for so many causes in the world – no GMOs, busting governmental abuse of power, countless conspiracies.

What IF what they are saying is true? Who’s side would you be on? Little David Miscavige’s or would you be a true friend of Ron and insist that this little criminal step down?

What could COB be doing that is making people so angry? Trust me, it’s not expansion of true Scientology. Wanna start looking somewhere?

Here is the Ron/COB comparison chart. Start. http://friendsoflrh.org/COBvsLRH/

Also, standard tech/lectures aren’t supposed to be changed one bit. Why have these sections been taken out of these lectures? Why are Ron’s words missing? What would Ron say about this? Why hide information about Black Dianetics from people who are only using Dianetics/Scientology for good? WHO would not let people be informed about this booby trap to the tech?

The answer is up to you. Are we going to defend LRH and STANDARD tech, or let someone change it on the old man?

What are you going to do about it?

You’re so bad Coop! I’m blushing.

What you said, Globetrotter. 🙂

When I was in London, back in the day, I went to a world class department store called, Harrods. Pretty famous actually, because they had everything and everything was beautiful – just about. I went there just before Christmas 1976 and it was a madhouse. People were rifling through bins, so hot and heavy that garments were flying up and out and littering the floor. One of these items were cashmere sweaters selling for 50-70 pounds apiece. That was approx $250-$300 back then and people were stepping over them on the way to something bigger and better.

Point being – people are fickle, people are strange. One person’s ideal scene is another’s nightmare – whose to say who’s right?

Most religions historically have been viewed as a package. You either believe or you don’t. You either have total faith or you don’t.

In my opinion religions started out as a means for people to answer questions about the unknown. About those things in life that may have frightened them or simply left them confused and uncertain. A religion – a gathering of like-minded people – found solace and to some degree answers in their new-found religions. Early on, agreement brought about some sense of security and comfort. Knowing there was a God, and that some form of communication with that being was possible, meant that some change in a person’s life was also possible. This brought about hope and with hope came the willingness to carry on. So religions have always had some benefit.

SCN was no different, but like all other religions, many of us got caught up in the marketing and selling of it. You couldn’t have SCN unless you bought the whole package. You got the nice shirt and trousers with the ill-fitting boxers and shoes, two-sizes too small.

Not everything in SCN made sense. Not everything written had the same value or the same prospects for change and improvement. But from KSW on, you bought everything or nothing. And in my opinion this is when we started to lose our ability to deal with SCN as a subject – like any other subject – where we could pick and choose according to need. We were stopped from differentiating and expressing our own free will. More and more we had to accept the bad with a dwindling amount of good, until finally there was no reason to continue. Which is what eventually pushed me out the door.

Most religions have had good and decent origins. Most intended to help and succor those who were feeling lost. History also tells us that most religions drifted away from their core values, driven to change by those who saw other uses for them – mostly selfish and having something to do with power and money.

I thought SCN was somehow immune to this “inevitable” process. I was wrong. But there was and is still some really good things to be had. Like some of those shoppers mentioned above, who found some great buys among the discards.
