Right, staff members were supposed to believe that he didn't write a letter to the editor of Life magazine, a letter which tone fits perfectly... the paranoiac ramblings in the Executive Directive written to distance himself from the paranoiac ramblings of the letter in Life magazine.
What a joke.
It is interesting that 'Life' Magazine in the US has been a violent foe of Dianetics and Scn for 18 years. ... In their letters to the editor in their issue of 6 Dec 68 they made a very fatal error. They published and signed my name to a letter I never wrote them, which makes them guilty of forgery, doesn't it.

Sirs:
Those attacking Scientology run mental institutions. They make millions out of it. They advocate brutal, murderous actions against the insane. They are terrified of losing the avalanches of money gouged out of governments. They see Scientology taking it all away with kind, effective measures. There is no question in their minds but that Scientology works. That's why they are attacking it.
A thousand other philosophies and religions arise every year with no outcry from the madmen in charge. The hundreds of thousands of victims of the enemy, as in all fascist actions, cannot complain. They cannot even talk. They're dead.

Right, staff members were supposed to believe that he didn't write a letter to the editor of Life magazine, a letter which tone fits perfectly... the paranoiac ramblings in the Executive Directive written to distance himself from the paranoiac ramblings of the letter in Life magazine.
What a joke.
