I'd think it's a rare 'old-timer' Scn who hasn't been 'declared' somwhere along the line. The lucky ones *stay* declared

Perhaps one could declare that a declare is sort of like the Declaration
of Independence for the declaree!
Can't help it, but if I keep saying "declare, declare, declare" over and
over again, it starts taking on something of a "French air" to it, like
some sort of thing you'd see in a Paris bake shop. I get mouth watering
visions of some kind of yummy confection... a nice gooey chocolate declare!
So, as far as a scientology declare goes...perhaps we can visualize
it something like the gooey ole Tar Baby in the Jeff Chandler stories;
the sort of thing Brer' Rabbit got stuck in. The scientology orgs are
just full of Tar Babies. Just sitting there waiting to get you all fouled
up if stick your fist in one or even if you accidently brush up against one.
Blasted things are worse than wet paint! At least paint dries after a while...
Tar Babies stay gooey and sticky forever! If you hang around orgs
for any length of time, your bound to have one sticking to you.
Maybe that's why some people stay stuck in scientology...its that
damned tar! Better to stick with Chocolate Declares...the stuff
eventually melts so it can't hold on to you forever. Its digestible
too.
