BT, Body thetan: Used to be called demon circuits then theta lines, entities, theta bodies, body souls, chakra's. These are thetans that are glued together on the awareness of awareness unit (the I) and have fixed locations in and around the body. These BT's are the main source of dreams (besides the I mocking up images himself, like lucid dreaming) and aberration. (See also confidential levels)

I can't help myself, I keep reading.

Make a list of terminals who have had ARC Breaks, PTPs or have committed overts
against you to Fly Ruds on them .


Do you think when L Ron wrote this stuff he was silently laughing to himself about a fool being born every minute?

by the way, their lingo almost makes the document incomprehensible. What the heck is "mocking up bank"?


My understanding is that Wikileaks can do the Hammer dance day and night while shouting "You can't touch this" and CoS can't do much, if anything, about it.

Until CoS can convince the US to extradite the country of Sweden, this and other controversial sites hosted in Sweden are free and clear from US copyright laws.

As a sidenote: I believe CoS theoretically could sue anyone here in the States who has the document either on her harddrive or in print form. Word to the wise.

Skippy would know much more about this than I (read: I don't know anything about this). But, CoS, as I understand it, can't do much but be chagrined about Wikileaks emanating this material from within the borders of a sovereign Sweden.

Here's a discussion of a recent case involving Wikileaks:

I don't know what basis CoS would have to sue anybody who simply had a copy, so long as that person was not distributing it.

Would the CoS have a basis to sue us for providing a link to it just as the LDS church sued the Tanners?

I dunno. I haven't looked at the reasoning on that case.

I'll save everyone time and a possible future lawsuit. Don't bother. It's gibberish.

It reminds me of a joke Bill Maher once made on his TV show - Mormons should be very glad that scientology is around, because it is the one religion even more ridiculous than Mormonism (ok, paraphrasing, it was funnier when he said it)

Yeah Beastie, I was just thinking that. Sometimes when I feel dumb for having believed in all that nonsense - three two-thousand-year-old American Israelites wandering around doing good deeds, Satan controlling the earth's water, Jaredite submarines full of animals that flip over and are lit by glowing rocks - I think of the Scientologists...and like Fraulein Maria says, "then I don't feel so bad".

If you've ever happened upon a car accident and thought, "Man, if only Tom Cruise were here," then this is definitely FOR YOU. This is the tech, the whole tech, and nothing but the tech.

I don't know if this document reflects Miscavige's "Golden Age" or not, but it's certainly...interesting.

Mods, feel free to move (after a decent number of views? Please?) to OT--"Off Topic," that is.

Any way your group can get funding to run a counter-ministry for Scientology?

My tomcat notwithstanding, I'm about as solitary as they come. What "group?"
