feedback

Dear viewers, so far not a lot of discussion on this thread and apart from a few PMs not a great deal of information or evidence specifically dealing with the matters of illegal operation and otherwise unlawful behaviour (eg misleading and deceptive trade description and advertising) For unknown rea...

music and brainwashing?

Dear All, further to the discussion on music and the SES an article in today's (Melbourne, 24 sept. ) Herald Sun caught my eye - page 11 "Bach bites in therapy" -- 'the right type of music can help put people into a trance, a psychologist says. Wendy -Louise Walker a former lecturer in clinical psyc...

to kitsbay

Dear Kitsbay,, maybe I am wrong but I think your posting is somehow in the scientology part of the forum -- if so I think you should transfer it to the general SOP site. Your experience is indeed a valuable testimony and one of very few from Canada -- if you have any interest in trying to reform or ...

thanks

Erikdr - thanks for the cosmology , I wasn't aware of their multicyclic conception of time (bit like the Mayan cycles and supercycles ) just about every religion has a 'final windup' scenario where everyone gets their just desserts and the 'good' live happily ever after. The obvious cyclic nature of...

asking for evidence

Dear All, I can't spend endless time and effort responding in some specific detail to every frivolous 'challenge' -- right now I am involved in my local council (landlords to the SOP/SES here) hosting a "scientific lecture" series "proving" that the world is six thousand years old , that all dinosau...

gender differences

Looking for evidence? Surely there are enough cases of 'gender allocation'( in ambiguous anatomy) where the person involved simply "knew" that they had a different inherent orientation to what was 'natural' for the sex assigned to them and normal for their friends . For example genetic boys ,even th...

Plato etc

Why focus on Plato ? Apart from being a misogynist etc etc isn't Plato just another example of the SES peddling pseudo wisdom ("Truth")using out of context and out of date quotations from at least 2000 year old sources or those who resurrected such ancient texts (eg Fincino) ? How can you expect to ...

statistics, lies and damned lies......

More male bashing from ADG -- is there something in those TimTams ? How about justifying your statistical "facts" ? -- what universities, whose figures etc etc ( even the Tarot,Belly Dancing and Astrology courses at local universities have a significant male fraction -- your figures do not look cons...

"not even Ross" etc

Hi there ,I couldn't ignore the "not even Ross" bit so I thought I'd rear my ugly head again . I found NYC's little dissertation quite interesting and trying hard to refute the obvious fact that MOST men are characteristically better at certain kinds of abstract thinking than MOST women and do in fa...

the troll returns

Dear people, I have filtered your commentaries on my last diatribe, I generally accept the responses but I think I should first reply to a couple of statements made of or to me before I go on to encapsulate my position on the 'business' of this forum-- or at least my reason for being involved. To be...

SES abuse

Lee, your testimony of absolutely appalling treatment is heartwrenching and it beggars belief that such conduct could be carried out without anyone involved being exposed and punished when they should have been. Surely you and others have to take your case to the police and MPs, the media and probab...

meaning

Reply to ADG /viewers, ADG, I certainly did not intend to insult your "pov" whatever that might be , as to putting words in your mouth this started with your purporting to "apologize" for my statements and in a patronizing and snide aside "explaining" how ignorant rural bumpkins ,like me (in your co...

Comments; This discussion about the equality or inequality of men and women and the differing reactions to the proposition (whether or not terminology like 'the absolute' is involved ) can be seen as merely an example of either an ideological argument (which has a predetermined outcome independent o...

update

Greetings viewers, Since opening this thread I have had several PMs that reveal quite a lot of interest in reforming the 'colonial' school set up and obviously many more viewers than respondents . I am still looking for specific experiences from longer term actual members or exmembers of the Austral...
