Then it would also have to be done with rolfing, yoga, priests, ministers, new age counsellors, etc.
They do.

Agreed.. But I have yet to see someone gaining that ability from scn! - Those that I know of do it all by themselves.
Anyway, why the blazes do you want to withdraw! - What happens here is just conversation.. So, there is not the enforced 'respect' for wins and people higher on the 'bridge'.. There is skeptism and doubt..
Fact is that we all try to figure out what goes on. And as I see it people have a considerable freedom of mind here. Is that bad?

Could someone trained on auditing the L's tell me whether a flubbed L level would not show up until 2 years later? I had understood that Lisa McPherson's break was pretty much immediate, but Martini is saying that Mario carried on for 2 years before his break. Is that probable?
that's why I don't tell anyone to join it. the tech is not in good hands anywhere I know about. And even if it was, it doesn't lead all the way out. So at best, it will make somebody more causative, serene and friendly. Scientology is a profit driven cult that one should definitely stay away from.
Hi. You certainly hit the nail on the head in the first part of your post re: Mario. He was brilliant.
But the freezone scene is different. First of all, I knew of him because he had joined a freeone list of some kind, and I wrote to him privately. He was not very forthcoming at first...rather hiding from the entire Scientology scene.
After many emails he decided he would meet us, and did. Very natty, all dressed to the T-hat and all. Was headed to Seattle for a party, and just stopped by to get acquainted.
Later he invited us to see his house, gold trim and all.
It was immaculate, which doesn't usually go with "crazy". But he did have some strange ideas. One is that he could write the Axioms better than Ron.
So Mario wasn't a "freezoner" even if he looked into it a bit, never had auditing outside of the COS. Not part of anonymous, either.

Thanks again
I know!I have a lot to do and being in the net too much is not good for me. I can be on it way way too long and I will not get done what I need to.
I don't like discussions where I am called a troll or lying which I am not doin so.
I just have a lot to do. I am in the process of scanning all my art source pics.
I am not even home. I am using my laptop. I posted it to show the guy was not bad but was broken.

While forgetting work that needs to be done..
IMO, Martini is playing a manipulative game, using one ploy, then another. I would suggest being wary of anything he writes. Amongst his actions are selectively establishing "ARC," and also encouraging conflict; seeming to agree with the prevalent view on ESMB that Scientology is "imperfect," and yet being, himself, a true believer in "LRH tech."
This becomes messy as Martini seems to be calculatingly writing things so as to create a particular effect, just as some of the representatives of the Scientology Freezone (specifically Terril and Mark A. Baker) have been doing for some time. Terril and Baker support "LRH tech," and it's very much about "LRH tech" as far as they're concerned - but that's not what is presented to outsiders, including to ESMB. Rather a tailored "acceptable truth" is presented, done - apparently - in an attempt to "handle" the participants of ESMB, and - when possible - recruit new people for Scientology Freezone services.
Martini is applying the same "LRH tech" in attempting to manipulate the participants of ESMB in serve his agenda - neither "camp" is being honest, both are attempting to manipulate. Both are advocates of "LRH tech" while making "acceptable truth" noises, on occasion, to achieve some desired effect.
What's needed - as part of a police investigation which should now be ongoing, unless Scientology Inc. has that effectively infiltrated and corrupted the LA police around CCLA so as to prevent a full investigation - are the videos (and there must be more than one, since there would be more than one camera) of the incident. Anything graphic can be blanched out while still allowing viewing of Mario's actions. There is no reason why - eventually - these videos cannot be public information.
There is much about the incident that is still not known.
The information, presented by Martini - cut and pasted from Freezone discussion group - is interesting, but, IMO, Martini is not an honest player in this. Note the image he posted (swordsman image) and the timing of its posting.
The hapless Scientology Freezone reps. (Terril and Baker) are trying to figure out what to do with Martini, who they had thought was an ally, and has now morphed into something else.
Becoming caught up in either "camp's" machinations, IMO, is a bad idea.
There are honest people trying to figure this out, and more information is needed.
Martini provided some interesting info, but his motives (and yes, motives do matter) are, IMO, suspect.
As for the "Freezone twins," they are doing what they always do.
And I would like to see the videos of the incident, and an honest LA police investigation report.
Time will tell.
One more suggestion for you.... the FZ needs to take more responsibility for members who are running off-beat whole track and winding cases up in a ball. Start taking the subject more seriously like one was working with T.N.T.
Majorski was never brought under any kind of control by the FZ when it was clear he was going nuts right under their noses. A hard, tough attitude about squirreling could have saved his life. But no, FZers have a right to do whatever they please.
One of the rare times we have a common viewpoint, mostly. With regard to me not being honest I openly and transparently, in yer face like, promote the freezone.
Martini says this -:
"Hold everything!!
Mario got an L in the Freezone from Cl XII Pierre in 2006!!!!!!
This is HUGE. THAT AUDITING IS HIGHLY, HIGHLY SUSPECT.
Freezoners beware. Pierre needs to answer for himself immediately."
Well I spoke to Michael Charavano and Thetagal last night and again they confirmed that Mario never had auditing in the Freezone, from anyone, and Thetagal has posted so here. Further Thetagal had offered services to Mario and he never took them up.
It seems Mario had spent one weekend with Michael Charavano prior to going to a Freezone conference, had visited Thetagal where Mario met
Michael, and it seems spent just a few weekends in the company of other Freezoners, and a good time was had by all.
Then nearly 3 years later Mario comes back for a final visit to his freezone friends and seems disturbed.
From this an ediface is built up a picture, " off-beat wholetrack"
[ whatever that is, Dianetics is not offbeat] , " never brought under any kind of control by the FZ" [ the freezone is not a controlling group of people] etc.
And then a handful of freezoners are upbraided for not doing what the might and resources of the Flag Landbase were unable to accomplish.

So let me get this straight. He didn't have FZ auditing and all he did was talk to some Freezoners IRL plus participate in an FZ cyberforum.
And...I'm sorry, Martini and Smitty, what was that you were saying?![]()
^^^^THIS^^^^^
Yes, his sudden blame on the freezone for the victim's squirreling and demise is very telling indeed. Still. Other OSA have been infected with the truth and my hope is that Martini is too.
Martini, you said you had dirt on the CoF$, start a thread on that ok?
I did.

Much love and warm wishes for a happy Thanksgiving,
