I didnt know if the success story made me laugh in how obscure or if it made me laugh because of how much I cringed reading it. All I know is I laughed because it is so out of pocket and so unbelievable .

I know I’ve said this before but these ads are horribly made. I mean I guess that could just be me but if I saw one of these I would be completely shut down just by the bad designs and honestly reading the content on these ads would make me immediately turn my head around even if I didn’t know about scientology.

I laughed at “They have to Offer Food” . Look I like food. But no matter how much food and how good the food that they offer may be I will not be going anywhere near the Scientology TV night. Reading that I could get better food from anywhere else to

I love that the ‘success story’ starts out with “I’ve said this before.” Of course you have. It’s just the same old same old with Scientology so you really DON’T have anything new to say. Just type up your ‘success story’ with the date and so-called service blank, zerox about 20 copies, and fill in the blanks as needed! Easy peasy!

Wow! All those promo pieces look just like all of the cult’s crap that the post office delivers to my mailbox weekly. Thankfully, our garbage can is large enough to handle it all. 🙂

What if someone is so inspired by Arte Maren’s presentation that they too want to become an interned Class VII auditor? Will Arte be their FSM and get them all set up to pursue this course of study, or just take his cut for their payment and leave them to fend for themselves outside the nonexistent course room? And who ever heard of an interned Class VII anyway, even back in the day when Hubbard hisself was running the con?

I never went exterior or ‘keyed out’ just by reading hubbard’s books. It might have happened after some secchecks, but it lasted a maximum of one or two days.
Only after I left scientology and started meditating did the key outs last for months and months.

The fundamental mechanism is disidentifying from the mind (that any random thought/emotion it’s “you”) and being aware of it.
This is what unconsciously happened to the dude here. But if you don’t understand it, you almost immediately get back into it and start obsessing over the fact that you’ve lost that state of “grace” and want it back. The more you do this, the deeper you sink. The deeper you sink, more you are ready to pay to have it back.
Smart scam.
