In reply to Jack L.. You speak like a very angry Scientologist. You wrote this comment a year ago; let's hope you've managed to escape in the intervening 12 months.

Man, some of you guys are just plain stupid. Narconon and the church are completely separate!!! You should know, Narconon graduates aren’t even wanted by the Church. The church does not want people that have used heavy drugs especially mind altering drugs. They are not the right “public”. So, they sure as hell don’t recruit or brainwash. Narconon doesn’t use an e-meter or believe/educate/use any of the spiritual beliefs the church has. They just fucking use similar terminology which has roots in regular english words. Narconon was awesome for me. Cheap too considering other places like promises. I stopped using drugs, I’m a catholic/Buddhist and don’t follow the spiritual beliefs of scientologists. When I was at the center, none of the staff members were even scientologists or had any consideration for it either. You guys are dumb enough to believe whatever your doctors tell you, take all the fucking meds that are forced on us by OUR GOVERNMENT and target a great rehab center that tries to do things holistically. Whatever happens at the church has nothing to do with Narconon and all churches have shady methods. Just look at the Vatican!!! We really should be focusing on our government and the messed up shit they are doing instead of targeting Narconon which has helped people like me and a few of my good friends. Hamilton looks like he likes to touch little boys and he’s just going for an easy target. He’s a four-eyed loser.

In reply to Buttons72. There's that and also some staff and sea org members who feel they would be lost/unsuccessful in the real world outside the bubble. But there is a support network of exes, people of good will and society itself.

In reply to BumpIt McCarthy. Well said! This is the difference between an actual faith and a cultish-servitude.

In reply to DodoTheLaser. Hope you're right, Dodo. I fear that the only ones that are left are the multi-generation kool-aid drinkers.

In reply to TX Lawyer.

I’m late to the dance here, but ^^^ is the most heartening commentary on the person of COB that I’ve run into.

I can’t get a table at Denny’s either, but I don’t try to be COB/Hitler.

In reply to Juicer77. Clients cannot direct their lawyers to act in a manner contrary to the lawyers' ethical obligations. If Miscavige tells his lawyers to lie to the court, the lawyers' duty of candor to the court is supposed to prevent them from doing so. If the client insists that the lawyer violate such duties, the lawyer would have to withdraw from the representation. Miscavige certainly knows that, so I would expect that he would be far more likely to withhold information from his lawyers, or flat-out lie to them about what the facts actually are, than to tell them to lie about things they know to be untrue.
