					<description><![CDATA[In many of the Thursday funnies (if not *all* of them), I noticed *so many* &quot;seminars&quot; about &quot;how to handle such and such&quot;.  Technically, every single one, is in some fashion verbal data.  

I may not be recalling this correctly, but I think I read somewhere (from LRH, either in a book, or maybe even a PL or B, or whatever it was), that when someone is &quot;trying to fix a thing&quot; in their life, the solution was to &quot;give them an LRH book&quot; that covers the thing they are struggling with (thusly, seminars would be pretty much extinct).  

To wit, *if* everyone hosting these seminars are &quot;so good at what they do&quot;, why then are things on earth still so &quot;unsolved&quot;?  With the vast power and knowledge, surely there&#039;d be some serious effective beings all over.  Frankly, (again) *if* the hosts of these seminars truly had this power, stands to reason, those that attend, would have also gained this power, and we wouldn&#039;t see &#039;seminars&#039; from the same ol&#039; people.  Additionally, *if* these seminars were so thought provoking, mind blowing, physical universe affecting, enlightening (et al), why not share it with the world, instead of just with your internal people?  Oh, I know, coz &#039;internal people&#039; would believe it all...... 

Anyway, just my own 2 cents, albeit a bit &#039;ranty&#039; hehe]]></description>

Yeah...given there&#039;s a Scientology school not too far from there, I&#039;m not surprised there&#039;s a branch in that suburb. 

Did anyone else pick up the misspelling of counsellor in that particular ad?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[There should be a tear in that lion&#039;s eye. 

&quot;Auditors Day&quot;?
Give me ein break! 

How about &quot;Tin Trophy Day&quot; instead, to celebrate Scientology&#039;s real heros?

Good thing Hubbard was cremated and his ashes scattered to sea.
If he had  been buried the body he &quot;dropped&quot; would not be resting quietly.

Actually I wouldn&#039;t be surprised if his ashes were quivering.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I was just watching a rerun of Adam-12. In the scene, Reed and Malloy are pulling up to their police station. Across the street was a building with a huge canopy across the front that said SCIENTOLOGY in big blue letters.
I fell over laughing.
Probably a mission that was shut down by David Miscavige soon after he pulled his coup in 1986.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Boston week:

I think they misspelt weak.

Practicing medicine without a license?:

&quot;Ability to think clearly&quot; until we get our claws into your brain.

Lance Miller, World Champion Public Speaker. Almost 20 years ago, so he&#039;s a nothing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Championship_of_Public_Speaking

It’s epic…

Yes, come and see the replay of the replay of the replay of the replay...add another 80+ &quot;replays&quot; here yourself if you&#039;re not worried about losing your sanity. 

The rest is the usual tiresome, dreary curly dog poo in a cone. It might look tasty but the smell...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;The turning point&quot;
Stuck in a win perhaps? Ya think? Maybe?

Well If that&#039;s all you got, that&#039;s all you got.

But to keep having events about it?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[JD Grant has a son who he doesn&#039;t talk to anymore because his son&#039;s a DB/SP. Guy was raised by his gran because JD and his wife were in the SO on garrison at Sydney org. and &quot;didn&#039;t have time.&quot;

Kid got into all sorts of trouble over the years and ended up doing jail time for crimes. Ended up at NarCONon when I was C/Sing there but couldn&#039;t control his behaviour and was sent back to prison.

Kid was working as a folder page for the Snr C/S week nights after school and loved it because the Senior C/S actually spoke to HIM and helped him. Wasn&#039;t even a teenager at the time iirc.

Last I heard of his son was from another ex a few years back and the guy was trying to make a go of it but getting no help from his family at all.

And yet here JD is purporting to be able to handle &quot;life direction and improvement, relationships...&quot;?

Makes me sick - the blatant hypocrisy of &quot;most ethical group on the planet.&quot;]]></description>
