I read your article against Scientology and I was offended by your superficial way of looking at things. I am sure you convinced your kids about it all.For me and my friends it has work greatly and I have always tried to disproof things of Scientology, with no luck. I am certain now that L. Ron Hubbard was the best researcher humand kind has seen.What you are is just a looser trying to prove him wrong. Have you created anything that works yourself? I don't think so.It is easy to criticise, right?.Only time will tell who was right and wrong.If any of what I said hurt you it is not my fault.

A clean heath cannot be hurt(check yours) I have professional friends that have become millionaries using L.RH tech in their lives, so I have no clue of what you are talking about bro. Now of course if you were to work there they don't play , but you have to understand that their purpose is the sweetest, to set man free.

I am convinced your kids that left Scientology are super loosers now.That is what happen to the weak minded and ot ethic people.Sorry , but I am really pissed off now.

Sincerely, x P.S If you offend Scientology you are offending me.Plainly and simply you are very superficial.

Can you tell me which article you're offended by? I have thousands of webpages and just can't guess which one you've read.

You asked a lot of questions and I'll try to answer them later. It is a bit late in my country on the moment.

One thing I can say right now is that I am familiar that Hubbard tried to make anti-scientology comments = with anti-scientologist comments. For me that is not the same. I see and make a clear distinction between the organization and its members (who often don't know all Scientology does).

Sincerely,
Mike Gormez

I received your email.For your information I have OT friends that are the sharpest people you have ever seen.I am talking about professionals, like:architects, scientist,electrical engineers etc.These guys really know how to eveluate information, believe me.

Well, it is not because of them I am in Scientology, but because it has done wonders in my own life.I know I have found the truth in it( I have no words to explain how happy I feel)

It has been very hard for me in the beginnig because of my out ethics. If you for any reason want out of Scientology is only because of this.Maybe you need some word clearing bro. It will do you very good. I know medicine can be hard to swallow at times but it does wonders and if anybody is dying of a painfull disease it won't taste as bad.Any offense towards scientology is an offense towards me and humanity. It doesn't matter which article it is.The funny thing is that there is a lot of critisism about Scientology , but nothing more than that. No corrections on LRH research.

You are all losers trying to critisize with no other solution or valid correction.Remember, the first step of handling anything is to gain an ability to face it.There must be a lot of facing you have to do in your life before you can really deal with the truth.Check yourself first.Truth can be hard to accept at times, but is the only way out to happyness and freedom and power and rationality and all that makes this a beautifull world.I am actually crying right now.You don't know how happy I am to have found Scientology. I feel like I am reborn again and I feel like I have to return the favor. I am very thankfull to Mr. L.R.H ;it is an honor to read his books and use the information.Have you written any books or have done anything valuable besides critisizing what others do?

The way I see it, anybody that discards L.R.H tech or judges it with no correction must be very crazy. And I don't believe in God.That really sounds like a fairytale to me. I like to understand things,, like a scientist does. And that is exactly what Scientology has brought me, understanding.And with that, and only that it has cured me, and is curing me.Yes, I am a work in progress, but is a lot of fun. You should try it.I hope you are corageous enough to do that.

Thank you. Sincerely, x

It does matter to me. If you can't remember where the page was located then tell me what did offend you; was it about children in scientology's RPF, or scientology schools or something? So I can get an idea what you took issue with.

I hate to remind you but you know what Hubbard said about generalities. Be specific what you object to otherwise I can't explain why I made/webbed that particular page.

I don't say the whole of scientology is bad either, but I do say that children should receive education outside the Sea Org's cadet org, for example. That is specific critism.

I am realy not trying to play smart here. Give me one point we can talk about on a step by step basis and I will. But just jumping from here to there, as you do, I am not going to follow you on that path. We began with you feeling offended by something I made and now you're talking about OTs. Well, I have a lot to say about 'OTs', LRH's 'research' and the 'technology' as well but first lets deal with the issue you were offend by. Okay?

Take care

Mike

First of all what do you know about children besides what psychologists say, nothing . I would shut up if I was you if I didn't know what I was talking about.Who are you anyway?A looser, that is all. So recognize that and mend yourself

Thanx. Bye

Hubbard said "communication is the universal solvent". You act contrary to that.

I have remained polite throughout our brief communication but you can't and have to get rude.

That's okay. I had hoped to have a nice discussion where we would swap viewpoints. But then again many scientologists can't have discussions, as I have discovered in emails received from them.

If that is what you wanted to learn in Scientology, not able to communicate, you succeeded.

Take care. I will not bother you again unless you want to talk. And don't take life so serious. There's enough to laugh about: http://members.chello.nl/mgormez/fun/

[Note: The Scientology® organization has at best estimate approximately 45,000 to 50,000 followers world wide -- contrary to the 8 million figure that the organization has been claiming for the past few years or so. While that number continues to drop (thanks in part to the Internet) few of the remaining followers are even aware of the unending series of police raids, indictments, and prison terms their leaders and fellow cultists are subjected to routinely. Few are allowed to know about their organization's criminal history, or its current racketeering activities. Even fewer of the cult's remaining followers are privy to their messiah's written policies which dictates the criminal behavior that keeps getting their organization raided (see Xenu.NET for suitable references of Scientology policy) Scientology management is the problem, not the thousands of honest believers who are good, honest citizens; themselves victims of Scientology - flr]
