Do the public get to hear any of this ‘vital’ news or briefings, that are constantly trumpeted, outside of events? Do they get to hear some of it in emails or letters that are just not amusing or interesting enough to post here?

I’d love to know what one of these briefings entails (briefings sound SO religious… not). Are there any recently-blowns that can point to a real briefing they went to and describe what was said? And just how ‘vital’ was this information?

What on earth does Gavin Potter fill a briefing with every few weeks? It’s not like the organisation can have tons of new information – it’s not active worldwide, there’s no new courses or source information, it’s supposedly about a personal journey of becoming more able.

The “Normal” condition formula says, If something is working, don’t change it. Has not ANYone looked at this and said, It’s not working!

There are other references about simplicity and complexity and so on.

This is another example of literalness. Don’t use your common sense, do it this way because Hubbard said so. It’s written! Even if it’s a balls up, it don’t matter. He said it. It must be true. Robotism to a T. Hypnotism at work.

Change it, for godsake, you Morons!

What do HUGE conglomerates do? Check it out and do likewise. Idiots!

And it’s Valentine, not Valentin!

This IS Funny Friday!

Gus Cox, your comment is so valid! I never thought of it this way before. I’m so glad I saw it.

I was once thinking of home schooling a bunch of kids as a living. I threw the idea out of the window because it’d mean being tied in with APS and I certainly didn’t want to have that connection for obvious reasons.

But you’ve given me real food for thought. You are so right. To keep referring a child to his materials is a sign of incompetence, in this case. And must be soul destroying for the child. Apart from the child not having the help he needs, what is that type of attitude and example showing him in other ways? Don’t ask for my help, stupid? Don’t need my help, stupid? To just shirk genuine requests for assistance in this callous way?

Well, that’s cured me. Thanks!

It’s Friday and on Fridays I’m always in a very good mood.

It’s time for laughs and you’ve helped me laugh, you, 1subgenius, and Mike Mallen! Thanks for that.

No seriousness should be allowed on Fridays!

Lol! Oh, god. This is so funny. Between this comment and Mike’s hilarious comments above, I’m in hysterics.

You can really turn a phrase, Mike. Brilliant writing. Eg:

“…. his annual hype-fest of foolishness about the life of L. Ron Hubbard. Wonder if he is going to mention Sara Northrup this year? Or Polly? Or even Mary Sue? Katie? Nibs? Alexis? Quentin? Arthur? Suzette?

“But the real treat is going to be the “milestone advances” in this “epic era of expansion” — they are always a lot of light-hearted fun. I cannot recall the last non-milestone in scientology. Or when it has not been an “epic era” of monumentalism.”

So funny! Between you, Joe, and Mike – you’ve made my day!

I used to say it a lot when ever I was asked to “volunteer” for CF duty, I was always shown the lrh policy on central files. We had people on file who had bought a book in 1980 then had never been heard from again.
Even back when I was still in I used to wonder what was up with these people that they couldn’t apply a bit of common sense to the cf issue and ditch files which very obviously were of no relevance today – would have reduced their backlog by about 99% I think.

When contacting people the org silently ignored the cf policy by coming up with a separate file of people who were known to be still around, thus cutting their mailing costs by a huge amount, I’m pretty sure they would get into serious trouble for this policy violation.
