Opinion on mentioning Xenu on the protest lines

Question answered by escapee in Scientology

Anonymous asked this question on 9/6/2000:

I'm interested in people's opinions on whether mentioning Lord Xenu while on the protest lines is a good idea or a bad idea.

People picketing the cult have different motives but there does seem to be a desire to help people inside get out. Mentioning Xenu -- the contents of OT3 -- could help them or further entrench follower's committment to the cult.

I'm curious whether people think it's a good idea or a bad idea.

escapee gave this response on 9/7/2000:

It is harmless. First rule of thumb...do no harm. I think it is a good idea to mention it, because in the COS they have the idea that it is dangerous to mention things about OT III and Xenu, that people can be harmed by it. And, of course, that is just part of the control mechanism, to keep the secret and mystery on the line and the money flowing in.

It is all in how one attacks something...one doesn't want to look so weird in attacking that it turns off the onlookers. It has to make sense to both the people looking on and the people within.

Just degrading doesn't do the trick.
