Thanks, Tony. I’m not so sure that I find those two credible when it comes to their own actions while in the Cult (even when they say that they are not worried about them). Rinder and Rathbun are holding back on what they really did while in the Cult, which may be to prevent criminal sanctions and/or not getting sued by Scientology. I think it is a mix of both.

Hey, I’ve got something for one of your lists!
“ScientLOLogy” – the study of Joking & Degrading!
Hope you’ve had a great weekend.

Heh. Love it!

Nay, Martin Samuels was a co-founder of the Delphian School, and owner of COSMOD (Church of Scientology Mission of Davis) in Davis, CA.

A movie – yes! What nearly all the reviewers of Marc’s book seem to miss is that BFG is a wonderful love story. Sure, it’s hard to ignore all the Scientology crap, but bottom line, it’s two people (Marc and Claire) who overcame tremendous obstacles (that fucking “church” and the people running it) to be together. It’s most inspiring, really.

BTW his name is Brian Winston…. he’s won an Emmy [which he never told us about] and recently got an OBE

I’m not arguing at all, I promise.

In that case, why are you continuing this line of argument?
No, really, why?
I’ve never had anything but good interactions with you here. I don’t perceive you as generally misogynistic. And I have asked (and we have all BEEN asked) to let it die.
So, WTF, dude?
Friends? Can we let it go?

It’s a good story if nothing else!

Hey, how often have you heard me use that word?

I mean seriously, find one example.
