> If Scientology worked, and Dave actually used it, he would really be the super-genius he thinks he is.
I disagree on this point, but more because Scientology never promises it can make a thetan more than they innately are.

(Separately, the whole Scientology IQ test is a joke. I score 157 on it, three points below the max it supposedly could test for. Later found out that putting “F” for gender means an automatic -3. Being an exceptional test-taker does not really make me a genius, and absolutely not on some higher-than-Einstein level. Average Scientologist scores lower, maybe gains a couple points over time as they do the test over and over.)

or they say yes this is a good show and a good thing.

Flashy Video Tech, short on substance. I watched 5 min. of it, got bored. Waste of time.

scientology requires total information control. If the rubes can’t see any different information, they’ll likely accept anything their “betters” tell them is the truth, leading to reinforcement of their subjects’ inability to think for themselves.

EVERYTHING in scientology feeds into the clams’ unthinkingly obeying orders directed toward them.

good point

Formost, Aftermath’s effects reverberate on. The Aftermath Foundation which the show naturally led to is EXACTLY what I needed when I was ‘beached’ as incapable to doing ANY post at Flog. Please support the foundation any way you can.

Oops! That’s supposed to read (40 YEARS recovering). So much for typing on my lap. Still “TEARS” works, too.

scientology can never deal with reality and truth. They’re forbidden from taking an honest look around themselves, for fear they’ll wake up and “blow”. Taking that honest look is what led to the depression that ultimately got me “beached” with only what I was wearing and what I had in my pockets.
