By Associated Press


McALESTER, Oklahoma -

Five lawsuits against Narconon Arrowhead in Pittsburg County accuse counselors at the organization of trading drugs for sex and claim one patient&#039;s credit card was fraudulently charged for $14,500.

Narconon Arrowhead officials issued a statement saying the lawsuits filed Thursday are financially motivated and &quot;have no foundation of truth.&quot; The organization said its purpose is to help people overcome addiction and to prevent young people from developing drug habits.

I seem to recall reading here that scilons were being encouraged to make a showing on social media platforms.  I don&#039;t remember if it was in an article or the comments.  Sorry, I know that&#039;s not much help.  

Too bad Tony is away from the Bunker and the comment threads this week, or I&#039;m sure he could supply the info.  Does anyone else recall such a story or comment, a few months back?]]></description>

Body thetans have an endearing quality that cockroaches lack - a love of flowers.

As Ron explains in OT III:

&quot;Body Thetans are just Thetans. When you get rid of one he goes off and possibly squares around, picks up a body or admires daisies.&quot;

Are all body thetans male?  Or was that just a figure of speech?

Ask Professor T.  He knows.

http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/OTIII/spaink-ot3.html

[...]

You won&#039;t see the Professor.
Don&#039;t knock at his door.
He stays in his Lerkim on top of his store.
He lurks in his Lerkim, cold under the roof,
where he makes his own clothes
out of miff-muffered moof.
And on special dank midnights in August,
he peeks
out of the shutters
and sometimes he speaks
and tells how the Thetans were lifted away.
He&#039;ll tell you, perhaps...
if you&#039;re willing to pay.

On the end of a rope
he lets down a tin pail
and you have to toss in fifteen cents
and a nail
and the shell of a great-great-great-
grandfather snail.
Then he pulls up the pail,
makes a most careful count
to see if you&#039;ve paid him
the proper amount.
Then he hides what you paid him
away in his Snuvv,
his secret strange hole
in his gruvvulous glove.
Then he grunts, &quot;I will call you by Whisper-ma-Phone,
for the secrets I tell you are for your ears alone.&quot;

Call me cynical, but perhaps the innovative and hardworking co$ registrars have noted that Auntie Kate has raised $95,000 in less than 5 days.. I bet if we check GoFundMe, there will be more than a few scientologists raising money there..

Ok, the nurse in me is forcing cynical me to add that I hope Karen makes out ok..]]></description>
