					<description><![CDATA[Something that&#039;s so striking to me about these (as a non-Scientologist) is how banal a lot of them are. Terrible fonts, prosaic events... Definitely not what I expected from the evil empire of Scientology.

I want to say that if I were a new recruit, I might have the thought &quot;These are the people who have the answers? These events are thought up by people who represent the pinnacle of human development?&quot; Of course, if I were a new recruit, I&#039;d quickly brush those thoughts aside, but really I may as well have joined a local Christian church instead and participated in their bake sales.]]></description>

Ms. B,
That works, yes!
I was simply alluding to the Spanish word and its pronunciation...<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f609.png" alt="😉" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f60e.png" alt="😎" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />]]></description>

I looked her up also.  Saw where she&#039;s got 10 monthly listeners on Spotify.  

I couldn&#039;t find any awards mentioned so I&#039;ll venture a guess that she won the &quot;Best Singer&quot; award for her 6th grade talent contest.]]></description>

When you don&#039;t want YOUR picture in $ci.. promos you send in your kids (with the added bonus that they&#039;re cuter).

Or if you&#039;re the pho-tog you can&#039;t be using pictures of the same 8 people over and over for the local morgue.]]></description>

Mark, I think you need to break out your dictionary and do a bit of word clearing and you will discover that the correct pronunciation of Raffleme&#039;s last name is pronounced &#039;pen-da-HOE&#039;. Rhymes with and is synonymous with &#039;i-am-uh-HOE&#039;.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Interesting about scientologists promoting functions etc re art, artists, creativity and your colours. Suggest this is another wolf clothed in sheep clothing to try and bring in the poor unsuspecting public into the jaws of Scientology. Obviously it’s desperate times for them. I’m seeing this just starting to rise in Australia too with “businesses” pod casts, online course providers etc appearing. 

On another note, a very damming article published in the Sydney Morning Herald today re Scientology accused of child trafficking, forced labour of Australians and covering up multiple sexual assaults.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Ooh boy, the screams of &quot;outrage&quot; from $camology will level Clearwater. The Masterson case and other assorted lawsuits are bad enough but when the staff smell the odour of boiling scotch they will know the tiny tyrant is not happy.
