The Rogue Stitch

From a Dianetics center near you:

Greetings so-called earthlings, inhabitants of Teegeeack. (that's the asinine name Scientologists give to our planet.) Booga booga booga. Tax shelter.

So the Stitch is going after L. Ron on this post. Unfortunately, Old Mother Hubbard never locked her fucked-up son in the cupboard, which means I have call a spade a spade and set things straight.

Hello, my name is Lafayette. I invented a religion for money. I also lied about my wartime service in the Navy. And when I died, I had the hydroxyzine hydrocloride (Vistaril) in my system. That makes me a hypocrite, since it's used to treat neuroses and emotional disturbances brought on by anxiety. (if only Matt Lauer had done his homework and called Tom Cruise out like the little bitch he is.)



The lies about L. Ron's years in the Navy really piss me off. Since December 7, 1941, hundreds of thousands of Americans have either been killed or wounded in action. And, whether you agree with the justifications of military engagement or not, you have to respect the men and women who put themselves in harm's way.

Scientologists fundamentally debased the legacy of such sacrifice when they asserted L. Ron was awarded 29 medals and awards. (The schmuck himself only claimed 27.) The pseudo-church even had the audacity to petition the Navy to send it the medals. Yet, now it seems the list has been shortened:

Navy Commendation Medal with 1 Bronze Star.
Purple Heart.
Naval Reserve Medal.
Organized Marine Corps Reserve Medal.
(British) The 1939-45 War Medal.
(French) Medaille Commemorative Française 1939-45.
(Netherlands) Bronzen Kruis.
Philippine Defence with 3 Silver Stars.
American Defence Service Medal.
American Campaign Medal with.
Asiatic-Pacific Campaign Medal.
European African Middle Eastern Campaign Medal (ETO Medal) with 1 Bronze Star.
WWII Victory Medal.
National Defence Medal.
Armed Forces Reserve Medal.
Navy Expert Rifleman.
Navy Expert Pistol Shot.

The Navy concluded that L. Ron's service record only showed he was entitled to 4 general medals (those in blue). What's more, some of the other medals don't even exist. What a blatant fraud. The British Ministry of Defence had no record of an L. Ron receiving a non-existent decoration. Go figure! And what about the European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign Medal? The asshole never left US coastal waters.....

The Purple Heart is the worst lie. L. Ron saw no action and received no wounds. His ship once depth-charged an area in which he thought there were two Japanese subs. We're talking 37 depth charges in 68 hourse of "combat." The Navy investigation concluded the quixotic L. Ron was chasing windmills. Turned out to be a known magnetic deposit. Asshole.

And yet L. Ron went on the claim that he had discovered a method by which he healed his fictitious war wounds. "Crippled and blinded" he said.

How do recieve shrapnel and bullet wounds when no one ever attacked you? Then again, how do you go on to convince people that Aliens were flown to Earth, put in volcanoes, and blown up with hydrogen bombs?

Kudos to the most recent issue of Rolling Stone for its article on the inside of Scientology. There's nothing like painting a revelatory picture of a world replete with bullshit for a public overrun with images of Tom and Katie.



Oh Tom, you're such a douchebag. There's no other way to say it. Yes, the language is crude and offensive, but do you deserve better? Hardly. You're a loose cannon.

Now, on to the fun part. Xenu. Alien overlord. Galactic Confederacy. Interstellar travel on DC-8s. Deception by income tax inspection. Thetans. blah blah blah. mumbo jumbo. do the hokey pokey.

All hail Xenu!



This is a story 'bout a alien who needed to solve an overpopulation problem. (oh, it gets better.)

So, for those individuals foolish enough to fork over tens of thousands of dollars to the CoS, there's basically this level of worthiness you can reach--at which time the secrets of the universe are revealed to you. It's called OT III. (don't worry about the details.) This is the point when Scientologists get to hear Xenu's story. Here's the dumbed-down version:

75 millions years ago...
1. There was overpopulation in the Galactic Confederacy.
2. Xenu was about to be deposed.
3. With the help of psychiatrists, Xenu rounded up 13.5 trillion people for purported income tax inspections, drugged them with alcohol and glycol, and flew them to Earth (Teegeeack) on spaceships nearly identical to DC-8s.
3. The drugged people were dropped off next to various volcanoes--into which Xenu's minions then dropped hydrogen bombs.
4. The resultant explosions created all these disembodied souls called thetans.
5. The thetans were rounded up with an "eletronic ribbon," brought to "vacuum zones," and forced to watch a "3-d, super colossal motion picture" for 36 days.
6. This movie implanted misleading data into the memories of the thetans, including the tenets of Roman Catholicism.
7. Xenu, deposed, was imprisoned forever by a force field powered by an eternal battery.
8. Teegeeack was then abandoned by the Galactic Confederacy, effectively making it a "prison planet."

So, these thetans supposedly now cling to our bodies, causing all the world's problems. Of course, through Scientology, one may take steps to remove these thetans...... for a price.

a) 6 month begiining membership - free

Fuck that; I'll take the $280k and buy an Astin Matin Vanquish S along with a condo in Breckenridge. Somethig tells me that a little more reasonable than buying into bullshit stories of interstellar travel on DC-8s (ain't it funny Jonny Travolta is a pilot?) and simultaneous volcanic explosions.



The best point in the anti-Scientology arsenal: there is absolutely no quantitative, tangible, scientific evidence to support L. Ron's fictitious story. Hyrdogen bombs leave a residue of radioactive isotopes--and those detonated 75 million years ago would still be detectable today. Moreover, the remains of those killed would have left some trace in the geological strata surrounding the missing craters. (and for those who would say that the bodies were vaporized, I point out how CoS literature claims that some survived the blasts.)

All in all, I think it's safe to say that Scientology amounts to utter bullshit, and those that believe in it's message are fucking retards. Again, I hate to use such coarse language, but hopefully it conveys the absurdity behind someone actually having to write about this crap.

A pox on the 1st Amendment! (wow, doesn't that sound un-American.) Between the Mormons and the Scientologists, the founding fathers have every right and reason to be rolling in their graves....

What? Now an attack on the Mormons? You're damn right.

Hi, my name is Joseph Smith. I invented a religion too. I was actually born in Vermont, but the good folk there ran me out of the state. When someone lost the original "traductions" that I made up, I was forced to come up with a lie explaining God commanded me not to retranslate those portions of the Golden Plates. That's what I call quick thinking. But I guess I got what was coming to me when that mob rushed the jail where I was staying and killed me. Yeah, that kinda sucked.



Mormonism teaches that God has a physical body and lives on a planet near a star called Kolob. He is but one of an infinite number of Gods, each ruling over his own world located somewhere in the universe. Supposedly, each God has untold numbers of goddess wives who produce millions of spirit children. Amazingly, these spiritual offspring of God and his goddesses must then be birthed through physical beings (non-gods) on earth. This obtains for them the physical bodies necessary to become Gods and goddesses, who create and rule over their own worlds.

Does anyone else smell that?

Oh yeah, the Mormons also believe that Lehi's sons, Laman and Lemuel, rebelled against God, who, in turn, cursed them and turned their skin dark. Mormonism claims that these dark-skinned Hebrews (Lamanites) are the original ancestors of the Native Americans.

Again, there is no scientific evidence to back up the bullshit.

This is the beauty of DNA research. It doesn't lie like a chump born in the VT sticks with delusions of grandeur. Undeniably, the Native Americans are not linked to any tribe of Israel. I point to the estimable work of Professor Bryan Sykes in support of this conclusion. (y'all should read The Seven Daughters of Eve.)

Hell, go check out the Oxford Ancestors website and they'll map out your genetic heritage for you. For £180.00 the company will establish a link to one of the 36 "clan mothers" that cover all of humanity.

So, the Ignorant probably each have an answer to my points. You see, that's the beauty of faith; it's incontrovertible. You say "That's what God said," or "God told me..." and there's absolutely no need to say more. Forget proof, evidence, corroboration, reasonableness, logic, research, and the like. And for the detractors, well we're just evil and/or misguided. Thetans, right? Or Satan. Booga booga booga.
