I placed *some* of my favorite audio quotes from Hubbard on Youtube....
slideshows for some have been posted and more are on the way.

"I don't know how anything is; I only know how it seems to me." - Robert Anton Wilson
"Taxation and drug prohibition are both coercive state interventions." - Thomas Szasz
"Can you imagine a world without countries or religions? It's the same message over and over. And it's positive." - John Lennon
I listened to George Carlin in that (one of my favorite standup comedians).
I agree with him on some points.
BUT the counter against big brother megabucks capitalism is NOT replacing it with big brother gov't Socialism. That has already failed miserably. Let's not "go from the frying pan into the fire".
Now that I have listened to some more clips from Hubbard it reminds me of why I got "in" in the 1st place.
It sounds so good until you actually get involved. Then you learn the dirty truth by actual experience.
Hubbard was fond of spewing forth platitudes that people like to hear. However, he didn't seem to live by them himself. And the core of his organization didn't live by them either, in the end.
Thanks for the link.

LRH did to the best of his ability. There seems to be a "vibe" that LRH is supposed to be a "god" or something and can be "blamed" for everything happening under the name "Church of Scientology".
Did you forget that we live on a planet with some damned crazy thetans?
Some thetans are trying to "die" and some are trying to "live" and said thetans seem to enjoy taking other thetans and MEST along toward their destination.
And that is, imo, a more feasible reason why *individuals* in the CoS have done certain things...not because of LRH...full source and cause of every being on Earth.
But yeah, it's easier to blame a dead a guy for the behavior of individuals in the CoS as opposed to blaming the true freaks of nature who are bent on destruction and dragging other beings down with them...
Oh hey, what's up Zinj?
