I thought it was a domino effect, like when they start falling? meaning people would start calling that number and there would be a chain reaction, the telephone booths form an ascending line from left to right like a static going up and the booths also become bigger and closer in the image. Just my guess. LOL Alex

When the SF Org was going “ideal”. I was staff at the SF Mission and we had to spend every Sunday at the Org getting CF in order. It took months with fancy files and I believe it was all up to date at that time. It’s hard to believe they’re having CF parties again…Funny!

I noticed all the turned over phone boxes too peggy. It makes no sense. I was even wondering from a creative viewpoint, what does it mean????? haha, of course it makes no sense. Dr. Who is an excellent guess!

Espi, don’t go all Commie/Fascist. Burning ideas, no matter how obscene to you is plain stupid. It even acts against your own purpose as it gets people interested in what you are denying them.

I just don’t understand the venom fired at these goons dressing up.

Fancy dress parties are enjoyed everywhere; it’s fun and different. Sure, they’re raising money for an unethical organisation, but why does the fact they dress up make such a difference? Why do they look more embarrassing than anyone at a Hallowe’en party, or New Year’s Eve? Surely, with the pressure and strain involved in being in that organisation, they should be allowed some fun?

You must remember that this subject is TINY TINY TINY in the world, and there won’t be a public hate campaign.

There may be thousands of people reading this blog (I don’t know) but the vast majority of the world just doesn’t give a shit about it. 99.9% of the world probably has never heard of Hubbard. I’m sure the HBO doc will open some eyes, but it’s not going to lead to millions standing up and saying “enough!”

It took the killing and kidnapping of defenceless girls in Nigeria, within a very well known conflict, to get a social media campaign that amounted to…. almost nothing.

Scientology is niche. Anti-scientology is a niche within a niche. We can only hope that publicity chokes off any new recruits, and the actions of the church gradually shed existing members.

Well Espi, I think you have stepped off the edge and fallen into the abyss. It’s not an idea “planted by Hubbard” that if you stand for the destruction of something that someone believes in that you are an enemy. Anyone who proclaims they want books burned, no matter what books they are, is someone I do not consider a friend. And that is not “Hubbard think” — that is my think. I believe all ideas have a right to exist, and all expression has a place in the world. People may disagree or agree, ridicule or praise it, but it is not for anyone to dictate what may or may not be seen or read or what people may or may not think.

What can be controlled is practice. Not belief. Not books.

I hate the “tech” and will work for its destruction until the day when every Hubbard book and tape has been reduced to ashes or is buried so deep in a landfill that no one can find it. But I don’t hate you, Yawn. I pity you for being taken in by this avalanche of lies, but I don’t hate you.

There’s no “witch hunt” going on for Scientologists. I should know, since I would be Matthew Hopkins with a Guy Fawkes mask if there were. Most Antis would be perfectly content for you to practice your “tech” once the abuses end. I, of course, would not be content with that, but I’m not going to go out of my way to wrap your limbs around a stake and throw petrol on you, then light the whole mess with my Zippo.

Just because someone is against Scientology does not mean that someone is The Enemy. Hubbard planted that seed in your mind. Time to pull the rotten plant out of your head.

Scientologists have no sense of humor. It couldn’t be intentional.

However, it must be said that the first person I thought of when I saw Maggie was Rosa Klebb. I just know that Maggie has sharp daggers in her shoes.

Who can forget the mimeo mountain. I think you were my senior there briefly Phil.
