					<description><![CDATA[I apparently seemed to always have a &quot;button&quot; on the following statements made directly to me:

&quot;You NEED to......&quot;
&quot;You should.....&quot;
&quot;You have to.....&quot;
&quot;All MUST....&quot;
&quot;all need....&quot;
et al

I always seem to have a mental same question to these statements.......

1.  how do you KNOW I .... (need,should, have to, etc)?
2. Are you exhibiting my life in some fashion, and know my thoughts of my own needs, and wants, and shoulds, and musts?

on a side note, I wish they would stop &quot;movie degrading&quot; good movies, for their own &quot;advertisements&quot; and promos..... to quote &quot;hook&quot; -&#062; &quot;It&#039;s bad form&quot;.]]></description>

So true Ms Dough.  I was called once by some biddy chasing confirms who didn’t pitch, except when I was called I was there.   Weird.  This is in the same vane as KRs or being accused of being ‘other intentioned’ and all that crap.]]></description>

The double standard is the most baffling. The NOI are clearly entrenched with the Co$ yet its members continue their antisemitic, racist rhetoric with seeming impunity. Does Freedom Medal winner Tony Muhummad or Power FSM Rizza Islam get hauled into Ethics for publishing their &quot;out PR&quot; jew-hating, black separatist conspiracy theories? Where the eff are their Non Enturb orders? Are they shown the references on &quot;mixing practices&quot;? Are NOI dianetics groups licensed via IHELP and do they pay their commissions like everyone else? 

It&#039;s safe to assume the rules are bent for the purposes of money and influence, but whatever happened to &quot;the most ethical group on the planet&quot;? I wish $cn celebs were asked about the NOI&#039;s involvement and how they reconcile NOI statements with Hub&#039;s fluffy PR beliefs.

Also, it would be great to see how Leah and Mike dissect this d/alliance on a future episode of Aftermath...! ?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mikerindersblog.org/thursday-funnies-174/#comment-222284&quot;&gt;Kimo&lt;/a&gt;.

I doubt staff would have anything nice left, that they hadn&#039;t sold off.  Scientology media staff must have some very nice equipment, and I recall seeing that they had supplied each org with a camera setup and even training so that they could be sure to get good photos should any PR opportunity arise, like a convenient disaster to roll the VM van and a couple of people in yellow shirts out to.

I wonder if there&#039;s a chance that it&#039;s some sort of special, customized lens for the distorted shots they take to make the crowds at their events look larger?]]></description>

Yes, exactly, mwesten, Its not the beliefs, its the lying about the beliefs. The cynical positioning of themselves with the world&#039;s two most popular religions, NOI with Islam and CO$ with Christianity, for marketing purposes only.  Deceitful and vile. Slinging some Scientologese, here, its no wonder NOI and CO$ &quot;have an affinity for one another&quot; That&#039;s no accident.]]></description>

The fact the Co$ believes Christianity is an implant doesn&#039;t bother me at all. It&#039;s that they lie about it. The hypocrisy and deception inherent in holding these religious themed events, whilst the all-knowing OTs chuckle to themselves in the background, is truly abhorrent.]]></description>
