mainly it makes me think fuck me i'll have some of what he is having
Scientologists targetting my area
- Thread starter Mrs Magpie
- Start date
When I was leafletting for the lib dems i just ignored those notices. I figured you could just as well put it in the bin.
As far as scientologists go they have a shop on Deansgate in Manchester. I am always a bit freaked out when I walk past the shop and never look inside in case I catch the eye of one of the people inside.
They offer 'how toxic are you' tests
just around the corner is also a christian science place too (whats that all about?)

It's different if you stop seeing them as sf novels, and start seeing them as...bibles.
The last election I refused to vote for any party that ignored the sign on my door. I figured if you didn't respect me enough to follow a simple polite request, then you couldn't be trusted with any form of power.
I'm sure the party appreciated your sterling work losing a vote from a traditional LD voter.

It`s disturbing to read of them targetting `vulnerable` sections of society in this way. i think that for various reasons London is a big focus for them now, they have a powerbase in the Square Mile , good links with some sections of the Establishment, and with their effective mind control techniques i`m bloody pleased there`s folk like Anonymous around raising awareness. BTW September 11th is Auditors Day in case you didn`t know.

Targetting the vulnerable is absolutely central to their recruitment drives. The only reason they do 'stress tests' is to find out what your achilles heel is so they can tailor-make their next phishing expedition - it's disgusting. I remember when they descended en masse around our school back in 1999 to hand out leaflets. One of them went apeshit when he overheard a commment I made implying they were trying to brainwash people; it was quite disturbing.

My mam once spilled a pint over a guys head cos he asked for my email address to tell me more about scientology
I enjoy talking to nutters sometimes, like finding out what makes them tick.

That's exactly the way they work - it's called "finding your ruin" in their lingo.
Basically, when you hold the cans on the e-meter, it doesn't read your thoughts, it just measures electrical resistance across your body. They tell you to think about something that bothers you, and at some point the meter needle will move. They'll say "there, that, what were you thinking about", and then explain that whatever that was, that's something that's holding you back in life (which, incidently, they've just told you to think about something that's a problem to you).
Whatever the solution is, it's part of the 'reactive mind' which through paying lots of money on their courses, you can 'control'. But your first step is to buy Dianetics for £15 and once they've got your name and address you'll be bombarded forever with crap from them.
Unfortunately, what they term the 'reactive mind' is something they have created, in order to provide a solution to - the Dianetics book. It's akin to stabbing your finger, so you have an excuse to go to the corner shop and buy a box of plasters - generating a problem in order to use a solution, rather than finding a solution to an existing problem.
I used to see their stress test tables out and about a lot as I was travelling around London at weekends - I haven't actually seen any for months though, even the Tottenham Court Road place they have hasn't been visibly open on some saturday mornings which seems strange. Perhaps they're having a much harder time recruiting now and lots of members finally waking up, that they can't even get two people together to open a shop.

I have quite a bit of their "secret" courses which you are supposed to pay many thousands for. I used these to rid Croydon of the Scientologist infestation two years back. Just printed a load of these papers and handed them to the people running their stall. They totally freaked, one bloke was telling them not to look at the notts level papers, the rest went into headless chicken mode. They left, and never were seen in Croydon since.

People reveal very intimate information about themselves during the 'auditing' process of scientology. Of course the fortunate side effect of this is that it's ammunition in scientology's armoury should any of their high profile members choose to leave or speak out against the 'church'.

Even very smart Muslims I've met believe the literal truth of Mo ascending to heaven on a white horse. That's right, a horse, taking off into the sky. I nearly fell over when I mentioned this to a work colleague and he said 'Yeah, the horse flew him to heaven, it's not a metaphor.'
A horse flying. It wasn't even convincing when the Greeks did it, and that horse had wings. Mo's horse was yer bog standard horse.
True, but at least the bible shows a bit of imagination and prose flair - Scientology is badly written pish, not merely pish.
