(and while I support your right to believe whatever you want, I feel personally that it's wrong to pimp the freezone and so I don't. People have asked about it and I am perfectly willing to say nice things, I just don't think the freezone is the solution for Scientology)
In the 13 years that I have been out of the Sea Org, the fixed ideas that fell by the wayside roughly went in the order:
1. The CofS
2. Scn tech
3. Hubbard
There are shades of grey in there, but the point is that the abuses of the CofS are the most fruitful to attack, while holding off on attacking the others. If you attack all three it is too much, and your message will get rejected as being too unreal. Pointing out that there is a FZ that delivers "standard tech" (it doesn't, but nor does the CofS), and not attacking Hubbard, makes it more palatable to ditch the CofS.
I'm not trying to enlist you as my private army, BWG. I'm not a freezoner, and I don't do Scientology per se.
