doesn't kibo deserve the chance to defend his prophecies before he's denounced?

This is what happened. Jonathon claimed that he had sat next to a girl
who was involved in EST (of course, implying it was the EST of
Werner Erhard fame). He said she was the meanest person he had met.
He said she had EST material that acknowledged ripping off Scientology.
I posted the facts, that EST doesnt even exist anymore, for one thing,
and exposed Jonathon for the liar that he is. Caught in his lie, he
next posted that he never meant EST that is popularly known. Instead,
he said she belonged to some group called extroverted sensitivity
training!!

Do the scientologists that post here realize the damage they are doing
to their own cause? The above incident does not reflect favourably
on them, I think. Nor do Gisele's attempts to get info on NarcAnon.
Nor do David Bonnell's threats and premonitions about "the Big Suprise".

I'm extending one of the fingers of my hand. Go exterior, come here,

I'll look in my local library, but I bet they don't have it.

If anybody does find it, could you borrow it and post
some summaries of the 'answers' to David's questions.

But by all means, don't buy it.

I was going to buy a copy of Dianetics way back,

One of my implants was prevented me from buying it.

Another of my implants made me say that.

I'd like to see their evidence. Here's mine.

---------------< FAQ: "start a religion" >------------------------

Last modified: 22jan93

One form of the famous rumor is that L. Ron Hubbard made a bet with
Bob Heinlein. This is definitely not true: it's uncharacteristic
of Heinlein, and there's no supporting evidence.

Another claim is that George Orwell said it first - that if you
really wanted to make money, you should start a religion.  I don't
have a reference for that claim, but if it's true, that would merely
make the "joke" unoriginal.

The usual form of the famous rumor is that LRH joked about it.
The following is the supporting evidence that it's true.

"Whenever he was talking about being hard up he often used to say
that he thought the easiest way to make money would be to start a
religion."
-- reporter Neison Himmel: quote in "Bare Faced Messiah" p.117 from 1986
interview.  He shared a room with LRH, briefly, Pasadena,fall 1945.

"I always knew he was exceedingly anxious to hit big money - he used
to say he thought the best way to do it would be to start a cult."
-- Sam Merwin, then the editor of the "Thrilling" group of magazines:
quote in "Bare Faced Messiah" p.133 from 1986 interview. Winter of 1946/47.

"Around this time he was invited to address a science fiction group
in Newark hosted by the writer, Sam Moskowitz. `Writing for a penny
a word is ridiculous,' he told the meeting. `If a man really wanted
to make a million dollars, the best way to do it would be start his
own religion.'
-- "Bare Faced Messiah" p.148. Reference given to LA Times, 27 Aug 78.
Happened in spring 1949.

"Science fiction editor and author Sam Moscowitz tells of the occasion
when Hubbard spoke before the Eastern Science Fiction Association
in Newark, New Jersey in 1947:
`Hubbard spoke ... I don't recall his exact words; but in effect,
he told us that writing science fiction for about a penny a word
was no way to make a living. If you really want to make a million,
he said, the quickest way is to start your own religion.'"
-- "Messiah or Madman", p.45 No reference given. Yes, the spelling
of Sam's name differs: this quote got it wrong, it has a "k". I
don't know why the books disagree by two years.

The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction lists Sam as the first good
historian of science fiction [among other things].

Reportedly, the autobiography of Lloyd Eshbach mentions being in
the room when LRH uttered the famous statement. However, I haven't
found the book, so I haven't verified this.

There are NO scientifically-oriented scientologists.
Scientology is inimical to rational thought.

I dare you to name a SINGLE scientist (mathematics/physics/chemistry/biology)
from the last 20 years who is published in peer-reviewed journals, 
and continued to publish after becoming a scientologist.

9999998. Why can't scientologists answer questions,
         including those they pose themselves, with straight answers?  

9999999. Why has David Bonnell become so boring?
