Picture: Brazil (Terry Gilliam - 1985) Tag-line: "It's all about flights of fantasy. And the nightmare of reality. Terrorist bombings. And late night shopping. True love. And creative plumbing. It's only a state of mind."
Yellow Alert!
Very serious and alarming stuff from the Executive Director of the International Council for Economic Development here:
"I spent three days searching the Internet for articles and websites about disinformation, 99 out one hundred sites were communist propaganda about so-called conspiracy theories, and only one site was moderate in its approach. Nowhere I could find references to the most deadly weapon used by the old Soviet Union to weaken the US and discredit American Institutions for over four decades: the KGB disinformation war.
After September Eleven, for a brief moment, the patriotic spirit, spurred by that tragedy and pain, cleared the minds of media reporters, politicians and most of the public. Now the constant repetition of well-designed lies, contorted logic, and half-truths is clouding the minds and the judgment of many, including many prominent people. The Internet is becoming the platform where lies can be multiplied and spread like highly infected viruses. Its primary target hosts: younger people. Being an emotional triggered program, its easiest hosts: people with emotional imbalance such as, resentment, fear, hate, and frustration. The new Department of Home Security should try to install confidence and peace of mind, and not fear and uncertainty. Even the economy can work better only if surrounded by confidence and trust, while fear, lack of trust and insecurity can only bring depression… as in the Great Depression.
But the root is the same: brainwashing through highly emotional issues, and constant repetition of simple intellectual concepts."

Earth
It is morning, I am surfing on the computer, suddenly I get a pop up out of nowhere, It is from the US Army? What have I got to do with the US Army? I close it and continue surfing. My budgies are chirping quietly in the background. I am facing the East from out West in Alberta. I check my email and theres a news bulletin from the prime ministers office saying something about a plane crashing into the building or some how I hear about a plane crashing into a building and think poor sods another plane accident. I continue surfing. Not sure what I was up about at the time. Looking for amusement perhaps or hmmm where was I?.... good question where was I before the towers? Anyway its about 8 or 9 AM I go back to check my email and theres another? one from the PMs office. This one loudly condeming the plane crash or a second plane crash. Bingo. What I say? Somethings up.... At this point I wander off and turn on the TV bam bam bam every channel is phrenetic I sense not news but panic... bam bam bam again... the towers in New York have been hit by two planes. What the heck? Whats going on?
Theyre playing the footage over and over again. The media is in not glory but its own kind of disarray. They don't know either it seems. Theyre looking for ? What was the media thinking? Was this just another news story or no this was bigger than news so why the heck were they boardcasting it on public tv. This was "history" happening before my very eyes. the history of what? Who authorized the boardcasts of the towers?
But then again where was I before the towers...
hard to recall.

Bait or Baiting is the act of worrying or tormenting a chained or confined animal by setting game dogs upon it for sport. In our Internet culture, and where humans activity online is concerned, people have referred to this practice as "button pushing."
According to Bill Maher, "one of the tenets of Scientology is that anyone who criticizes the religion is fair game for any and all kinds of retribution. You can harass them, you can spread lies about them, and it's OK because the critic is fundamentally evil."
Where Bill Maher went with that (11.09.2006) is outrageous, of course, as it is almost always the case which practically anything he touches, but not totally out of place either, all things considered:
"In fact, this attitude is only a matter of degrees away from the belief radical Muslims have that any wrong perpetrated against the "infidels" is justified.
This also ties into the so-called father of neo-conservatism, the philosopher Leo Strauss, who argued that the only way to stop liberalism from ruining society was for the elites (a.k.a his neocon followers) to exploit myths (religion) or create new myths (the Islamic Menace) that will unite the hoi polloi in an orgy of nationalistic fervor. Sounds like fascism? Yup. But an interesting feature of Straussism is that the elites don't care if the myths they are exploiting are actually true; that's irrelevant as long as they're effective."
I wonder what's the policy of the Church of Scientology with regard to "dissidents" or former scientologists who pursue activities that might be perceived by the Church as illegally borrowed from their teachings or a subversion of their religion. There is probably there some analogies with what went on when the Protestants broke off from the Catholic church, and all the splinted christian groups which split of afterward. Come to think of it, Christianity itself split of from what was in a way the "Church" of the time, which was itself pretty badly spliced. The same can be said of Islam and Hinduism...and also of the New Age.
More interesting, perhaps, is what become of the splinters. Having been themselves on the receiving end of intolerance and the repressive tactics of the mother church from which they split off, do they amend their way, and learn openness and tolerance of other, or are they bound to repeat towards those they perceive as their "infidels" the mistakes of the Church who persecuted them, like the abused who become abuser?
The question is particularly relevant on a site such as NCN, which prone diversity and people freely working, separately in subgroups, or together, and in any case, if not with (or in agreement with) each other, at least beyond their differences. More >

I will soon leave this world only to return and complete my mission... Although I long to stretch my arms back in repose on some distant star in some distant galaxy, it appears that is one dream that will have to wait. But my return depends on people like you doing these materials thoroughly and completely so that there will be a genetically uncontaminated body for me to pick up and resume where I left off. A body free of religious mania, right/wrong dichotomy and synthetic karma...
I will return not as a religious leader but a political one. That happens to be the requisite beingness for the task at hand. I will not be known to most of you, my activities misunderstood by many, yet along with your constant effort in the theta band I will effectively postpone and then halt a series of events designed to make happy slaves of us all.

HCO BULLETIN OF 5 MAY 1980
Found at Karin Spainks site: The Fishman Affidavit
In view of the fact that so many people here (including the founder of NCN) are Scientologists, or, at least, ex-scientologists, or neo-scientologists (members who at one point or another left the Church, but are carrying on with some of the work of "the Commodore"), this is probably a good place to ask. is this what you actually studied - I mean beside becoming "clear" and all the early Dianetic stuff? (Since this is supposedly OT VIII material, it would only apply to those of you who made it all the way to that level, I suppose.)
I wonder.
This is not intended as a criticism of Scientology or anything, or of anyone's faith or religious persuasion (or lack thereof), and I understand that "there is no Spiritual or Religious basis to NCN." Etc. Besides, if you are a Scientologist, "what is true for you is true for you", right? And "reality is a function of agreement" - or something like that? And to each his or her own and no disrespect intended.
The Church of Scientology officially denies the authenticity of the above material , and says it's a forgery to smear the Church. More >
