The Rinse Cycle

[well_that_sucked]

After I left the cult of scientology I battled with myself over what was real about scientology and what was not.

I hung around other ex scientologists like myself that were disillusioned or broke or declared and none of us got better or really moved on.

That's because we still talked like scientologists, and thought like scientologists. The fake language kept us trapped. We were still under scientology's control and it was just the way the cult wanted us. confused, afraid and isolated.

Its hard to make sense of something or figure it out when you are deceived into believing something is one thing, when it is another.

If a door is meant to slide open, and you believe it pulls open, you'll never open that door.

I stopped using any and all scientology terms and started speaking english. I stopped talking to my fellow scientology evacuees in scientologese and made it clear to them I didn't want to hear cults crap. If they were going to talk to me, it had to be in english.

I made it a point to make friends and participate in activities with the general public. At first it was difficult, but it helped enormously.

After a time I lost the cult mindset and started feeling "normal". I was me again, a slightly dented and scarred version from my collision with the cult, but I consider these reminders of what I almost lost. Myself.

Losing the cult talk worked for me, it might just work for you.

Tell us about your Bridge progress and case gain.

Any past life recall, exteriorization?

Have you audited anyone to a win?

I get better daily with Self-Analysis and LRH tapes, free too. Why don't you give it a shot?

I never wanted to conform, neither as a wog, neither as a member of CoS. For me it's fuck the Matrix and to hell with Zion!

"Thank you for reading... I write just for youuuuuuuu!"

PMD is angry. Fear leads to anger, what is PMD afraid of?

Ah yes. The truth.

While I do not disagree with you at all, WTS, I have a somewhat different viewpoint as relates to comm here on the board, and a different set of experiences.

Personally, as mostly a "public", I never used the scio "dialect" exclusively and though I know it well, can easily just not use it (or use it) as I see fit depending on the circumstances.

I really and truly enjoy and need the comm that can be had here with others that know the scio dialect! That's just me! I know others will take issue with that and I can get their viewpoint too, - so please take this just "for what it's worth" and let us get on with business as usual!

Were I fortunate enough to be fluent in any other languages, I would not want to lose them from lack of use either.

. Thank you so much for seeing this and mentioning it..

The use of hypnotic trigger words should be avoided..at all costs

If it were done with intent, it should be a banning offense

Yer right, Arnie...

Point well made, Arnie - and I'll take it to heart.

Sorry, guise - I'll have to re-think my previous post.

I'm bored. You're so juvenile. I want a real critic!

You never did any Scientology, you sound like a poor redneck who didn't have enough $ for the STCC.

Reading this kind of thing where people are hurling insults at each other really gets my goat. When I first started coming to this board I never saw the sort of viciousness I see now today.

Remember, opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and they should be allowed to have it. They should not be bashed, insulted or put down because their opinion differs from yours.

Arnie, I agree with you 1000%.

Both posters, IMO, are out of line. It's one thing to point out what you consider a falsehood, and another thing to call someone a liar. Flaming may entertain some, but it may be driving others away.

I've flagged the posts I've considered deliberately offensive and without redeeming qualities. I hope others who object are doing the same.

Interesting. Although I am now fully aware of the effects of scilon speak on the mind I do try to avoid it at all costs, however, sometimes I still find myself at a loss to find another word to replace that word so it's not always easy. A banning offence... much food for thought here. Thanks.

These are brilliant, thanks! I see quite clearly from this that many of them are plain and simple brainwashing... now why doesn't that surprise me...

thanks, here is another effort to turn a pattern of suspending thinking via generation of spectacle back into thought

Note where your attention is being drawn.
We have 'assaults on demonstrators"
We have assaults online...

of course these two things are not related?

or are they?

Join the club, at least for a time.

When that happened to me, I just let it go, and didn't even try, eventually my mind found a way to figure it out.

Just because you aren't deliberately trying to sort something out, doesn't mean you don't slow roast the problem in the background looking for a logical answer.

Ever forgot the name of a song and it drove you nuts? Then days later it just pops into your head? Same kinda thing.

Edit: Arnie all your hard work, and the work of others, is why I am here. Thank you.

I ditched the use of Scn-ese years before I left CofS. It's never been a problem. I've always had friends who weren't Scn'ists as well as ones who were.

Everyone has a different situation.

You are right CP.

Unfortunately we have PMD here specifically from the COS trying to derail and bait folks. Most are too smart for this poor trapped slob. Wish we could help him but instead the more important purpose is to protect this board and keep it's integrity so it stays a safe place for ex scn's.

In a way, PMD is an enemy to this board and future ex's...which is why I say we need to all take a stand despite the bait he dishes and just ignore him, and report him to emma...everyone who agrees...report the guy.

I formally request from all esmb posters that we, as of today, IGNORE ALL posts, no response to any PMD posts for a time.

 

[uniquemand]

I concur with reporting whoever you find has violated the rules of the forum. PMD is certainly not the only one, but he has definitely violated.
