I used to work in a sandwhich shop that was pretty close to an office of the Scientology cult that was located on Colorado Blvd. along where the Rose Parade is run every year, here in California.

One day I was with a co-woker as we walked past the place on our lunch break. I never would have gone in alone but since I was with my friend, we thought we would run in and see what it was about. We had worked close to the cult for years and never gave them much thought.

There was some little kid... couldn't have been more than 10 year old or so... that met us at the door. The kid was filthy and stank, desperately needing a bath. That was enough for me to want to leave but my friend whispered to me, "in for a penny, in for a pound." Whatever that means we stuck it out and started to get a lot of smooth talk about taking that stress test that they're always trying to sell people.

The kid's parents... at least I think it was his parents... came in and tried constantly to seperate me and my friend. We wouldn't let ourselves be seperated so we spent all the time in that little front hallway thing that the cult had. We were trying to politely leave when we hear some woman just screaming loudly.

We could see this woman sitting in a chair leaning over an ash tray screaming like an insane person at it to 'rise up!' She turned red and just kept screaming at the ash tray! One of the parents of this kid that was trying to seperate us walked quickly over to the woman, said something, and looked back at us extremely embarrassed.

My friend and I got the hell out of the place. I admit that we were very scared that these insane people would follow us out and we walked quickly away. After half a block or so, we both started shaking and laughing and we hoped that the people inside wouldn't recognize us at work since some times they would send people in for lunch or some times dinner.

What's that all about? Screaming like someone possess of Satan at an ash tray, for God's sake?!!!???

Yikes! Run away, very very fast! Always watch your back when around such people.

The "scream at the ashtray" so-called "class" is to develop "communication skills" and other abilities such as "levitating objects." It's a routine for power over MEST (Matter Energy Space Time).

Just how screaming at ashtrays improves one's mental abilities is beyond me.

By the way. Farther back in the Org you would have seen people staring at each other unblinging for hours at a time.

Scary stuff, this! Satanic.

And yes, if you go in with a friend they will attempt to seperate you from your friend. Two hears really are better than one.

Yes I agree that this is Satanic. I see from reading things that Ron Hubbard denied Jesus. It is not a wonder that he is possessed of demons.
