The recent hack by a member of Anonymous of Sarah Palin’s Yahoo email account has brought some negative publicity for “Anonymous”, a loosely-knit buch of wackos who seem to exist for LULZ — a word they use for “getting their jollies” at others’ expense. This article in Wired News about Anonymous details some of their […]

“These are not dark days…”
When I see the news with its talk of ruin, injustice, inequities (and iniquities) and failures in the world, it all seems very “gloom and doom”. Terrorism, the rise of militant Islam in the world, the impossibly high cost of health care, the high taxes, the unemployment, the failing educational system, man-made global warming etc., […]
Marianne Williamson quote (mis-attributed to Nelson Mandella)
I subscribe to a weekly newsletter called “Optimism“, put out by Cecile Vowles of Sydney, Australia. It’s very uplifting, as the title implies, and has her marvelous humor sprinkled throughout. Today Cecile quoted Nelson Mandella, who was apparently quoting from Marianne Williamson’s 1992 book, “A RETURN TO LOVE” : Our deepest fear is not that […]
Book: The Scalpel and the Soul
A Harvard-educated neurosurgeon ( Allan J. Hamilton ) has published a new book called “The Scalpel and the Soul” [link moved] speaking out about the times from his experience when patients who were clinically dead (no heartbeat, no brain waves, etc.) recorded what was going on in the operating room, word for word. This is […]
New quotes from Sir Winston Churchill
I have found some quotes from Churchill concerning the telling of lies, and the having of enemies, that are worth knowing. Rather than put them in an ephemeral blog post, I put them on my quotes page. These quotes are particularly relevant to the attacks currently going on around the world against the religion of […]
Scientology Video Channel
The rise of YouTube over the last couple of years has amazed me. I had no idea that videos would grow to become so popular, and to contain so many subjects. Nor did I have a clue that comments left on Social Media sites like YouTube, Stumble Upon, and Digg would grow to be so […]

More on the terrorist activities of the Anonymous group in the Injunction filed by the Church of Scientology asking for relief and to keep them 500 feet away from our buildings. When you get enough bomb threats (dozens of them recently) and when you get enough harrassing phone calls (thousands of them) and when people […]
Klaus Hilgers – old friend and “poker pal” – passes on
My friend Klaus Hilgers passed away on February 28th 2008. Klaus was an internationally renowned public speaker and seminarist who delivered seminars to tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands, of people all over the world, over the last 25 years. He was the best public speaker I’ve ever seen, and could put together a […]
Anonymous – Hate Crimes & Terrorism Directed at Scientology
Well, this YouTube video about Anonymous ought to put a dent in their numbers. [The video has since been taken down] Anonymous = Hate Crimes & Terrorism Directed at Scientology. The sheer volume of crap these Anonymous cowards are creating is pretty revelatory of their intentions. Numerous bomb threats, thousands of harassing phone calls, vandalism […]
Scientology and Kids – Children of Scientologists
This is a personal rebuttal to some websites I’ve seen from apostates recently that denigrated my religion with regard to raising children in Scientology. Here’s how I see this issue: ———- My parents divorced when I was an infant, back in 1953. I grew up in a series of broken homes, attended 17 schools before […]
