Perhaps they can convince his 92 year old widowed mother to sell her house and move into an old age home or do an EOC. I don't suppose that Alan has any more plastic he can max out on.

    The only thing I have tried that worked so far with mixed success is telling the truth.
    I have been factual about how I feel about the specific points i disagree with.

    If you put plain facts on the table it is very hard for any handler to deal with it - and I would point out what "generalisations" means in scientology, and ask, when they tell you that I'm just nattering because of a missed withold, what is that excactly?
    By the power of grayskull! I have the power!

    If you canīt argue with them, have a laugh with them.
    If you canīt laugh with them, laugh at them.
    If you canīt laugh at them, sit in a corner and cry.

    I appreciate the applause. Unfortunately, on this particular topic ... what I came up with is really not all that much of an exageration of what really goes on.

    I haven't gotten anyone out BUT I do try to convince people from getting in.

    For example, my daughter will NEVER get involved in this.
    And my brother and nephews and nieces will NEVER get involved in SCN.

    I think that preventative actions are just as important.

    (And I still throw their junk mail in the trash without even reading it. Should I shred it first just in case some trash digger might find it?)
    The emphasis on finding and describing "knowledge structures" that are somewhere "inside" the individual encourages us to overlook the fact that human cognition is always situated in a complex sociocultural world and cannot be unaffected by it. - Edwin Hutchins
