Hi JustLook, Your post resonated strongly for me.I blew in 78 and did not fully realize how I had been played,except in three instances,that The SO1 line letters went to him and he received them.I did not totally absorb that this was not 100% true until late 2015 and it was a revelation that is for sure!
The LRH Comms for Asho D & F were always pushing the drop- boxes etc.I wrote three times a week for four years.KoolAided to the tips of my toes at that time,until other stuff occurred and I knew I had to get out.Love,Ann.

I hereby rename it COD – Church of Deception.

I can think of 10 more but that will do for now.

Yes. Oddly, in retrospect, finding out that LRH didn’t personally answer my mail really, really bugged me when I find escaped.

How was that posted everywhere in the org with that special little box and Flag Reps running around asking if you’ve written Ron lately? “All mail sent to me will be received my me…” Arrrrrgh. It’s treachery on a gigantic scale.

I must say that the waking up process is revelatory, making me realize the true extent of the manipulation.

Yes, I do recall her. Anyone who had any interaction with the SO#1 unit (I was senior to them as CO CMO CW — the “Personal Office of LRH” was Dept 21 of the CMO Org board) knows those letters were not seen or signed by him.

Mike, you remember Inez Park, the wife of Philip Park who was in the Port Captain’s office? She worked in the SO#1 Unit at Flag and confirmed to me all those letters that were supposedly from the ole man were written and signed by she and other staff in that Unit.

Right OSD. No more failed porpoises!

NOt so, OSD. Its all very hush-hush, but I have it on good authority that with your extensive aquatic experience,you have been selected for grooming for the post of C/S for the False Porpoise Rundown,a brand new Scientology rundown, to be delivered only at Sea World.

The “Slay Your Dragons” flier just kills me. I love how they put “bad news” in quotes – as if the shitstorm of negative publicity and state of affairs within CO$ isn’t actually bad news for them. Ah yes, let’s all just ignore the elephant in the room. Quickly, put your hands over your eyes and ears! Maybe then it won’t be real and we can go on our merry, delusional way. Surely it’s just OUR org that’s empty and every ex-member or critic is lying, right?
