Tuesday, July 17, 2012 7:01:18 PM Fiction writer was sort of his side job. L. Ron Hubbard was a full-time con artist. If f*cking ALEISTER CROWLEY thinks you're a bad person, then there's something seriously wrong with you. |

Sunday, July 15, 2012 10:39:31 PM Amazing, isn't it, that Scientologists still haven't realized that LRH was a fiction writer. |

Sunday, July 15, 2012 8:57:33 PM I only ever read Battlefield Earth, when I was a kids, it was not awfull Sci Fi, but is pale and overblown when compared to greats like Asimov and Philip K. Then I learnt about Scientology, have hated Hubbard since. They try sneak in every where, then make you pay for your own brain washing. Insidious is the word I would have used to describe him. |

Sunday, July 15, 2012 8:50:34 PM MacGuffin, if you're reading this, I just got around to responding to your response to my response to your postulate at Gerry (which was none of my business by the way, but if invading other people's business isn't part of the contract, then what is?) here: Thank you for your patience. By the way, how hilarious was that visual demonstration via Gerry? |

Sunday, July 15, 2012 7:10:22 PM A friend showed me the leaked Tom Cruise video from 2008. My favorite part is where he talks about driving by accidents/emergencies and knows he has to stop and help because he's the only one who's actually capable. Someone needs to make a reality show based on him. |

Sunday, July 15, 2012 4:24:00 PM L. Ron Hubbard's sci-fi is interesting if your into heavy satire. I liked a couple of his works. His Scientology, just another work of bad fiction. |

Sunday, July 15, 2012 3:16:41 PM "one of the greatest literary figures ..." Note the curtailed quote. When I was a kid a friend who was a huge sci-fi fan and obsessively protective of his book collection gave me some L. Ron Hubbard books. That bad. I read a few pages of one, and kept them for a time I was bored. In the next three years I was never, at any point, that bored. I threw them out. |
