Don't tell me what I believe.  I happen to find statements like this
ludicrously stupid.

Yeah.  Of course, the things you've remembered are almost always
totally unconfirmable.  My personal feeling about "past-life" recall
by anybody, Scientologist or not, is that it's merely the product of a
creative imagination, possibly combined with something you once read
or saw in *this* lifetime, but that you don't consciously remember.

>BUY AND READ DIANETICS NOW - may you never be the same

I've tried to read Dianetics; the problem is I can't read more than a
few pages without breaking out into laughter.
