I was looking for a post that got into the entrapping nature of "The Code of Honor" that Hubbard laid down upon us, but instead I found that someone calling himself honorarykid @ Holysmoke.org did a nice job so I thought I'd bring it up. I'm sure it's occurred to a lot of others as well was that this list was designed to entrap and keep you in $cientology once you were in, but I also thought at the time "Hey, I'm a Catholic so according to Hubbard's code I shouldn't withdraw my allegiance to them either and I should never desert them? Didn't he realize that one could interpret it as such so as to never get into $cientology in the first place?" In any event, this is the link to kid's work, Im sure we could all add quite a few points of contention to this list. #3 for me is the most obvious because it's telling me that I can never change my mind and leave (blow) no matter what I discover or experience, Whadda crock! Additionally if I leave I must have overts and/or MU's! So he's got us cut off at the pass at all exits, or so he thought.
