  1. wah wah wah... the difference is that I didn't make a claim and then proceed to argue that claim to be true. Here's what I said, "I suspect that your thread title is misleading, suggesting the topic would be political." IOW, you again made a dubious claim. That's an "I statement." Such statements indicate that I am setting forth my perception as opposed to making any claim about you or your words.
  2. There is SO much in your post that you claim without either proving or even supporting logically. I agree that this is a discussion fitting for the doctrinal forum, but this IS the Open Forum where anything (except for politics) is allowable. I also suspect that your thread title is misleading, suggesting the topic would be political. To reiterate, my biggest concern (not a matter of whether or not this discussion should be allowed) is that you state several things that you expect the reader to accept at face value just because you say so. That makes your arguments weak and ultimately unsound and invalid. I don't buy them.
  3. I'm confident that it's difficult to develop a robust understanding today of whatever discussions, however amicable or not, took place 10 years ago based solely on the postings on GSC.
  4. Well, that and conjuring up the fear of death resulting from "leaving the Household."
  5. Probably a good idea at this stage. And yes, many of us know of your uncle. It sounds like you have quite a story to tell. Btw, the weird name thing kinda keeps google from cataloging posts about specific individuals.
  6. Irving Fryar also played for the NE Patriots but that wasn't the only team he was on during his NFL career.
  7. Tony Collins and Irving Fryar. Also MLB player Tony Phillips.
  8. Just curious, did you sell any publications containing those ideas you got from other sources... you know, without crediting said other sources?
  9. The author of that article could have benefited greatly from consultation with a copy editor. There are several typographical errors. Also, though there are several links to allegedly supporting material, the one I looked at (related to music) wasn't necessarily authoritative. Further, with popular music involving sometimes significant sums of money, litigation can be involved and whether or not the litigation was successful would color claims of plagiarism one way or another. Thanks, Bolshevik, for the food for thought but I'm skeptical.
  10. Twi went after celebs, including actors/actresses but even more so with professional athletes. The just didn't snag m/any big names. NFL stars Tony Collins and Irving Fryar and MLB utility player Tony Phillips. However, PFLAP didn't keep those three out of trouble.
  11. And batting .191. and going 0 for 3 against the Dbacks last night.
  12. Yeah the artist referenced by Twinky's comment is the lord and master for the Facebook way corpse group. He still practices face melting as well as marking/avoiding aka banishment.
  13. Welcome Tessie. I hope you find Greasespot satisfying. There's plenty to read from plenty of people. Take care.
  14. Over the weekend, the actress and former Scientologist received the Creative Arts Emmy award for best informational series or special for her A&E series, “Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath.” The actress thanked mom Vicki, who had brought her daughter into the Church of Scientology when Remini was a child. “Mom, thank you. You are officially forgiven for getting us into a cult,” the former “King of Queens” star quipped in accepting the Emmy, according to Deadline. Her mother was in the audience to celebrate her daughter’s win, the media outlet reported. Remini dedicated her Emmy to the “brave ones,” the former Scientologists who told their stories throughout the series. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/leah-remini-scientology-mother-emmy_us_59b56e9de4b0b5e53106d1e6
  15. He didn't repent. His apology was perfunctory (hasty and superficial). He regrets getting caught.
  16. Just to confirm the site is paid up through July 2018, right? :)
  17. Tim Stiles is on Facebook.
