I called David Miscavige's mother today in Clearwater (727) 442-3268. Loretta was not answering the phone at her home at 500 Osceola Ave. North, in Clearwater but I did leave a detailed message on her answering machine.

David Miscavige and his criminal minions need to be on alert that nobody schilling for his criminal cult is off limits from this point forward. Not his mother, his father, his wife, him and especially not the money lines of scientology.

For someone like you, Ceon, who has never gotten off their ass to do a damn thing, I will simply repeat the following for you:

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face in marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." ---- Teddy Roosevelt, April 23, 1910, Paris

Any useful ideas Ceon, or do you just want to do more whining?

So many want to know what the message was that was left for Loretta, I'll transcribe it:

"Loretta, my name is Bob Minton from New Hampshire, telephone 603 887-4145. You may not immediately recognize my name but if you ever read the SP Times you might remember that I am Scientology's public enemy number one. I have some messages for your son, Davey, which I would like to pass along through you. Therefore, please give me a call when you get this message. Thank you."

End of message to Loretta.

Please be assured that I am in no way looking for approval on ars for any of my actions. I completely trust my own judgement. Those who I talk to on a regular basis understand what it is to fight scientology and what methods may be useful. They are also seriously involved in this battle. The vast majority of people on ars have not a clue what scientology really is and do not have the intellectual energy to even bother to find out. If you don't have the will to find out what scientology is about, please be assured I could give a shit what you think.

A lot of people here violently dislike me--like scientology does. But, like the Apple commercial said: "Here's to the crazy ones; the misfits, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes, the ones who see things differently and are not afraid to trust their own judgement.

They're not fond of rules and have no respect for the status quo. You can disagree with them, glorify them or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is to ignore them because they change things...."

And while some see them as the crazy ones, ..........the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do."

And, for those ars critics who are like eunuchs in a harem who know how it's done, have seen it done every day, but are unable to do it themselves just keep expressing your opinions but don't expect me to adopt the consesus view on how to fight scientology.
