scientology promotion often reminds me of professional photographs of ice cream.


No one called me on this, so I would assume you got the reference. I'm going to explain anyway.

In professional photographs of ice cream what looks like ice cream is instead mashed potatoes as ice cream would immediately melt into a sticky liquid under the hot lights.

What you see is not what you get. (WYSINWYG) I think that just about sums up scientology.

News Flash: New Dianetics DVD and Kit

<http://www.lrh-books.com/new/kit79>

Hello XXXXX!

If you've ever felt there was something holding you back in life, ruining your plans and stopping you from being who you want to be, you were right.

The fact is, there is a single source of all your unhappiness, problems, stress and self-doubt. It's called the reactive mind — the hidden part of your mind that stores all painful experiences, then uses them against you.

Dianetics gets rid of the reactive mind. It's the only thing that does.

With 20,000,000 copies in 50 languages, and used in more than 150 nations, Dianetics brings dramatic and permanent improvement to people all over the world.

And now it's easier than ever to study and apply Dianetics and get immediate results...

Introducing the brand-new Complete Dianetics How-To Kit — now available in 16 languages.

Every consideration was taken in its creation so that you have precisely what you need to be able to tackle the source of stress, anxiety and self-doubt — the reactive mind.

The bestselling book Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health was released along with 5 audio lecture CDs where you'll hear the author, L. Ron Hubbard personally explain and demonstrate the breakthroughs of Dianetics. This is the only live demonstration available straight from the author himself.

In addition to this ...

A brand-new How To Use Dianetics DVD Set was also released, which contains a complete visual representation of the book, concept by concept.

This 2-disc DVD package contains 4.5 hours of video footage and in this you will learn the techniques and procedures of Dianetics to be able to get rid of your own reactive mind, and help another do the same. It is the most complete audiovisual, cinematic presentation of Dianetics available.

In essence, you are getting the following in the Complete Dianetics How-to Kit:

P.S. I want to give you every reason to say "YES!" today, so if you are one of the first 100 to get any of the new Dianetics items, I have special gifts for you. Just click on the link for any of the items above to find out about the gifts.

Dianetics can help you achieve:

• Higher intelligence
• Creative imagination
• Amazing vitality
• Good memory
• Strong willpower
• Radiant health
• Magnetic personality
• Good self-control


Results from application:

"I suffered for years, ever since I was a kid, from sinus pressure. It would get so bad, I couldn't even bend over to pick up a pencil!

"And as a result, I'd have migraine headaches.

"Dianetics handled the source of my headaches — the reactive mind.

"I can't explain the feeling that I had at that time. The pressure just blew. I could feel it come off my face and it was such a relief.

"I walked around for months thinking, 'Okay, when is it going to come back? When is it going to start?' It never did. It was just gone."

— K. F.

"My marriage was headed for divorce. And even though we loved each other, something had come between us and we didn't know what it was.

"We tried everything. We went to a marriage counselor, we even went to a psychiatrist and the end result was we still were headed for divorce.

"So just when I was about to file the final papers, a close friend of ours insisted, absolutely insisted, that we try Dianetics.

"And that was when we knew what had come between us — it was the reactive mind.

"So not only did Dianetics give us the tools to save and rebuild our marriage, but we love each other more today than the day we got married."

— C. L.

I received a letter from Lauri Webster today.
Who is Lauri Webster?
According to the letter, she is the "Super Power Expansion Project In-Charge".
Lauri Webster wrote:
Dear Scientologist,
Since the past many years, Scientologists from all corners of the world have joined the list of supporters to the Super Power Project.

This year of 2009 has shown a great year of support as we get closer to the release of Super Power.

In a matter of weeks, you will see the commencement of the final build-out of the full interiors of the New Flag Building.

The team of auditors are readying for the release of the 12 rundowns of Super Power so you can be guaranteed a new level of spiritual ability.

All of the final details, planning and construction aspects are complete.

As we move forward, I want you to take part in this expansion. With your contribution of $100, $250 or more, you are ensuring that we will create that new civilization of which LRH speaks.

I look forward to hearing from you soon. And once again, thank you for what you do to assist in the clearing of Earth.

Much love,
Lauri Webster
Super Power Expansion Project In-Charge

Wow, that is encouraging, isn't it?

After only a decade, the final details, planning & construction for the Super Air Castle are finally complete.

After ten years of soaking stalwarts the world over for monetary contributions, the "final build-out of the full interiors" is only weeks away!
Whoo-hooooo!!

Oh but alas, still more money is needed.

Dang it, every time I get my hopes up that Scientologists will finally get to flex their spiritual bi-ceps, it turns out to be a cattle call for everyone to bring out their check books instead.

Oh well, all is not lost because the church has figured out a "statuses and benefits" plan that will allow contributors bragging rights regarding their status & benefits. Let's see what it says:
Quote:
(bold & caps are original)

YOUR HELP IS NEEDED,

Those donation "requests" are not typos.

Who can resist the temptation to donate a $500,000 when a "special ring" hangs out there dangling like a carrot in front of our face?

But before we all get too "gung ho", there is one other piece of paper included that is a "gift form" that evidently needs to be filled out & signed with each donation. Lets look at that:
Quote:
~Super Power Expansion Project official logo~
GIFT FORM

Church of Scientology Religious Trust
319 South Garden Avenue
Clearwater, FL 33756, USA


I,___________________, do hereby make a gift
to CSRT (Church of Scientology Religious Trust) to forward

Project.

I understand that the purpose of the Trust is to forward
and expand the religion of Scientology and that its Super
Power Expansion Project has the purpose to expand the
Church here in Clearwater and provide the facility necessary
to release the Super Power rundown.

I also understand that all donations and contributions
to CSRT are non-refundable.

I understand that the information on this form and any
information I may later provide to CSRT may be stored in a
computer.

Credit Card in the amount of $______________

OK, so now we know (surprise, surprise) that all donations are non-refundable. (Plus all of your information will be stored in a computer)
Upon agreement, all that is left to do is choose a status & benefit & donate.
Everything the church promises will be delivered upon release of Super Power Auditing.

Never mind if the release promised in weeks turns into months, years & decades. That just leaves ample opportunity to upgrade your status & benefits & donate even more.
yessssssss!

Hi!

Good news - we have double the speed on the web site! So hopefully you are able to get from page to page a lot faster and easier.


Celebrities

We are starting to promote to get more celebrities on the web site and using the Privacy Plus Membership. So if you get an email from one of them, please don't pass their name around - help them keep their privacy.

We give a month of the Premium Membership if you tell someone about FreeSpiritSingles for The Way To Happiness, and they become a member. However, if you know of any celebrities who are on your lines, and you tell them about the web site and they sign up - you get a FULL YEAR of the Premium Membership. The Privacy Plus is a GREAT way for a celebrity to promote for a relationship in a very discrete way. If you tell a celebrity about the web site, let me know, as you may not know when they sign up if they come on the Privacy Plus Membership.


New "EDIT MY PROFILE" Page

That page was simply loading too slow, with all the programming for the fancy text boxes (the About Me section, Goals and Purposes section, etc.). So we've put all the text boxes on separate pages. Now the "Edit My Profile" page loads very quickly. And I think that the text boxes are a lot easier to write in and use now that they are separated. If the word filter kicks in and tells you you've used an inappropriate word, you don't have to hunt through all the different text boxes - you will know right away where the word is located.


Emails From Members

This is just another reminder to check the web site frequently for member messages. Emails to members don't always arrive - but the member messages are ALWAYS shown on the web site in the "messages" section!


Have a great holiday coming up! It's a great time to hand out TWTH booklets too - and get free membership.

Sincerely,

Rob

In Google you can enter the conversion you want in the search box and it will do it for you.

Take the silver clear bracelet at UK pounds 132.50

Put

132.50 UK pounds in US $

in the search box and press <enter>

Google returns this:

132.50 British pounds = 217.68425 US$

Wow!
That “OT” bracelet, gold with diamonds, converts from 2750.00 UK pounds to $4530.24 USD.
I wonder how much a jeweler would appraise it for?
You would think for that price the church would mention how many karats & what kind of gold it is made of.
Imagine forking over that much money only to find it turns your wrist as green as Xenu’s face.

But just think, for a mere $10,625.93 USD an “OT” can be stylin’ in their gold & diamond bracelet while operating the
state of the art Mark VII Quantum E-meter.
What a bargain!

I know someone who paid COS around $8,000 for an OT bracelet and after leaving COS tried to sell it. It was worth very little (a few hundred dollars).

If you have any scientology regalia, have storage capacity and can stand having the stuff around, hang on to it. Build up whatever provenance you can with it, as well. Not now, but down the road all that stuff will be collectible, in the same way Nazi regalia is now collectible. (And for those lurking scientology people, what I just wrote is very covertly hostile, just in case you missed it; you know - "One-Point-One!")

Actually, if they were telling the truth, the title would read: "The Next Giant Millstone Around Your Neck".
Also why do they celebrate new year a day later than everyone else?

Image

Translated version :shock: :D .....

Image
That gives me an idea....Hmm...see you in the xmas gifts thread!

Then again, that obelisk does look familiar. As in the style of Kubrick's 2010 movie.....
