In fact, I think some of them have been abandoned (for the most part) and are only being kept alive by perpetual reiterations on ARS. Black PR has it's uses... more so when a *religion* is involved and is defintely a positive talking point FOR CofS. I suspect that the SO/RTC combo will eventually be seen to be the main ill of Scn. Whether it's dismantled through the courts or by Scn's membership, it has to be done away with or else Scn will eventually be seriously hampered by it's actions. > if scientology does ever begin expanding again, and this is due to their having Right and wrong.

You and are are in agreement though on at least one thing.... if DM, OSA and the collective branches we know as the SO are eliminated from the picture, Scn will not be a problem from an ARS perspective. That's one of the reasons I'm still here. Wolf > in reality, this isn't the zero-sum game the church of scientology seems to be
