Gotta love that Gorilla incident, especially since it happened 256 septillion years ago (trillion trillion), which happened 255,999,999,996,000,000,000,000,000 (255.999999996 septillion) years before that Crackling Beginning of the universe incident. What a bunch of whack jobs.

. . . Kind of a dull history, the scientologists have. (I'm quite serious on this point, no sarcasm at all. The science one is much more interesting).

How can anyone believe any of it? That goes for more established religions as well, but scientology is just so absolutely idiotic. Are the believers collecting laughing because we believe that they "actually" believe? I have this feeling that the likes of Tom Cruise and John Travolta at some point will say ok everyone - it was just a joke. Right??? :shudder:

Information is the greatest power on the planet. The first step in any action is to gather information. Whether that action is deploying an army or walking across the room, you need information or you're going to fall flat on your face.

When you control the information a person receives, you own the person. I'm not talking about slavery, where you might compel a person to act against their own wishes, I'm talking about true ownership, like you would own a car, or a gun. Your possessions are simply tools for carrying out your wishes.

It's simple to use information to own a person. Put yourself in a position where you control all the information another receives. Create a non-falsifiable theory. Create carrots for agreeing with this theory. Provide sticks for disagreeing with this theory. Include a code of behavior in the theory, where acceptable behavior includes the actions you want performed and unacceptable behavior includes questioning or denying the theory. Congratulations: You own a person. Lather, Rinse, Repeat. Do it effectively, and you can control an entire population.
