That makes more sense. Thank you Miss Pert!

Why would Mr. Packer (a billionaire dude) have his breakfasts there?
Is it also an Advance Org? (Training and auditing was mentioned.)

Also, anyone knows why Mr. Packer decided to part with Scientology in 2008?
Did it make Tom Cruise sad? Did it make David Miscavige to shoot at anyone?

I believe he did to some services at the AO but I assume they probably took him there Stat because he is such a high profile VIP and Oz doesn't have a "Celebrity Centre." Can't have hoi paloi (spelling ?) ogling the very rich VIP type person and then telling the press, I think he did try to keep his involvement under wraps as much as possible.

Why Mr Packer left? Don't really know, but I have heard he does like his gambling and wanted to invest in casinos. The cult doesn't like gambling, it means someone else is getting the money. And I doubt the cult had there talons in far enough to be able to control him and if they tried to he had the resources to damage them. He has more financial resources than the cult and does/did own one of our largest TV broadcasting stations, even the C of S isn't stupid enough to mess with that combination. This is just my theory though.

I'd say that Shane was at the AO doing cooking and served food for Mr Packer and others there. There is a regular cult bus between Dundas base and the AO in Glebe that the cadets, RPF , EPF and general SO staff travel on.

As for when Mr Packer and cult parted company, I've never seen anything to confirm he actually has, so I don't know where Bryan got his info from.:confused2:

And I reckon Tommy and Davey are sad and confused these days even without the "loss" of Mr Packer.:biggrin:

I'd also like to say that there were people who worked hard behind the scenes to make this whole rescue of Shane come off - they know who they are but they haven't come forward to take any limelight. You know who you are.:coolwink:

:hattip: to them:thumbsup:

Almost certainly PC folders. There are similar containers full of folders in the grounds at Saint Hill.
It's probably lotsa "stuff", you know how it is in the CofS, they have to keep everything... forever.

It's a Crime to destroy or dispose of Records in scientology, incriminating evidence excepted, of course. :coolwink:

It would be so awesome to see your whole family together.

I can hardly wait till the collapse of Scientology. Then so many families will be re-united.

Thanks for doing your bit to make that happen. :thumbsup:

Former Scientologist youth decries Australian ‘forced labor camp’ from The Raw Story.

THIS is why:
http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/02/...t-youth-decries-australian-forced-labor-camp/

An Australian man who spent much of his childhood in a facility run by the Church of Scientology told the Seven Network’s Today Tonight that conditions in the compound were inhumane and horrifying.
Shane Kelsey alleged that children kept at the facility — a Rehabilitation Project Force — were separated from their parents and forced to work up to 100 hours per week for no pay.
“I signed my contract when I was eight-years-old. It was a billion-year contract, which means you’re volunteering or servicing the Church for the next billion years,” Kelsey said.
“We used to do marching, close order drilling, things like that. Just because it was a form of discipline,” he said.
Kids at the compound were forced to wear all black uniforms and required to run where ever they went. They were regularly subjected to forms of brainwashing and hard labor, according to Kelsey.
Independent Federal Senator Nick Xenophon has called for Scientology facilities in Australia to be investigated.
“Shane’s story is one of shocking abuse, child abuse, it’s one of a child being enslaved,” he said. “What makes this worse is that this organisation is being subsidised by Australian taxpayers because it doesn’t pay any tax.”

Shane Kelsey, we are all so proud of you.

THANK YOU for speaking out. Feels good, doesn't it? (If a bit weird at first...)

So - when are you going to let me take you windsurfing? Kid, I want you to enjoy the world and feel completely part of it again. You're awesome and deserve it and a thousand times more than that.

Love you :thankyou: :hifive: :heartflower:
