Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide There's been far too much tinfoil moonbattery around here lately. We haven't had nearly enough DOX OR GTFO.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide Modern Marvels- Thank you for adding info regarding the FREE-SERVICE = FREE FALL policy, but I'm confused by your post. I'm not understanding where the quote is from and in what context that it was used. Plead stupid to COS abbreviations (although I have tried to keep up). I do think that this policy, if fully understood by this board, might be a great addition to signs and conversations for the Anons protesting IRL. Educate us as to how we might be able to use this policy information in this down economy. Why has this subject not been a bigger talking point with Anon's during this last year? Seems to me that it might just be a universal experience/talking point with the general public and current COS members, that churches typically support and help their members. And yet, the COS has a policy against that very thing. I wish that some Ex-Scientologist's would weigh in as to how they were abandoned during their time of need, and what excuses they were given by the COS.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide In an ObiWan sort of way he did die in a head on collision--with a planet. Hate it when that happens, messes up an entire afternoon. N4maste, Alph0hm
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide Honestly, I'm not that convinced, in some Kierkegaardian sense that life is really worth living in some fundamental way. I'm enjoying it enough right now that I don't see any particular need to exit. However, the problem with Scientology is it fucks up people to the point they feel no other alternative exists even when it actually does, and does this sick shit solely to make money. They hope that by stealing every other possible hope from you that you will buy their jerkwater fake pasteurized process hope product. If I had to tell someone in Scientology what they had to do to survive, and I actually gave a fuck about them, I'd weigh the issues pretty carefully. Most current Scientologists are *not* going to seek psychiatric care if that's what they need, even if it's the only thing that will prevent them from offing themselves. In fact, they'll probably disconnect from you for even suggesting it. If that's their only hope, they're gonna die. But if that's their only hope, you've got to go ahead and suggest it. If you give a fuck about them, and that's their only hope, you have to give it a shot. Sadly, other options for people in this situation generally involve them abandoning the cult. If they're at the point where they're either abandoning the cult or committing suicide, they're usually in pretty grim circumstances. Sometimes, they're in such deep shit financially and otherwise that even if they completely woke up from the scam, what they'd wake up to is bankruptcy and the near immediate loss of all their property. Their house is about to be foreclosed on, their credit cards are all maxed out, and they have no business or job, as everyone connected to them disconnects. That situation is going to be increasingly common in this economy. I think the main thing is to let them know they probably have more friends than they think they do. Maybe even the guy who they disconnected from is willing to give them a couch to crash on for the time being. If you care about them, let them know these things. There's a wide world outside of the cult, and even being broke outside of a cult is better than being IN a cult. Fuck, being in jail is probably better than being in a cult.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide TRUFAX: the OCBM thread on Steve Brackett has exactly 4 posts and exactly zero of them add any information. (Before you infract me at least tell the world that in fact I am the OCMB shitter-on'er ITT and no one else)
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide So the scientologists say he had a 'head-on' collision, right? Well... he kinda did... with the ground... poor bugger, hope it was painless...

Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide I was hoping that you were just trolling, instead of being a mouth-breathing idiot, thank you for proving me wrong. *sigh* ...and now back to your regularly scheduled STEVE BRACKETT: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICiFnQrHOrk&feature=related"]suicide is painless - 4077th tribute[/ame]
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide LOL, sorry. Just hadn't heard anything about him since all the reports that he'd blown, so your brief comment piqued my interest. Now STFUing to get back to the late Mr. Brackett's unfortunate fall from [strike]grace[/strike]the bridge.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide There is no real context to it because I found that little gem in the "scientology administrative dictionary", available on Wikileaks. I put it here to prove once more the when a scientologist (KSW) says "we would rather have you dead than incapable" they're not kidding.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide That, then, makes a good sign: "What was the last thing you got from the church for free?"
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide So is this Steve Brackett guy still dead? I see this thread has reached 15 pages so I assume he came back from the dead or something. I mean there must be some reason people are still talking and bumping this thread, right?
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide Quit bumping this thread Herro or you'll get an infraction for necromancy abuse.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide Google fu about Steven Brackett, scientologist. No other reason, well people might have other reasons but they're retarded and jus6t cogs in the Chanology machine. It's ok we like to let them think they are being useful.

Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide Please not to be relighting the shitting contest Operation Clambake Message Board :: View topic - Scientology covers up another OT suicide (Steve Brackett) That scifi cult really fucks people up, these ex's really think like this.. Suicide was prompted by him making a better tomorrow.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide I had a new thought. Did Ms Cartwright string Steve along, make him feel important, persuade him to part with his millions, promise him enormous Co$ contracts (background of his photograph is a building site just waiting), and then dump him when he got a bit boring and possessive? And of course broke. Will we ever know?
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide Completely inconsistant with the facts, but feel free to go on.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide Several Scientologists have died of cancer, fueled by the "Doctor Hubbard's" belief that smoking is actually good for you, and asbestos won't harm you.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide I wonder if some of his financial woes were caused by the church, specifically the jobs he was contracted on. Did they ever pay him? Did they pay in full? Did they claim deep deep discounts (Brackett had to claim them as donations)? Also, in the police briefs, it is stated that "friends and family" claimed he was despondent over his financial problems. Who are these friends and family and how was the suicide hidden to the rest of the family? Did a scilon actually LIE and claim to be family? It's all just a little weird to me.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide This is pure tinfoil speculation. Don't listen to Ann. Don't go on.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide You know How I knew it was pure speculation? Because he called it a thought and used question marks But you just keep hanging around telling everyone else how to think.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide He can think however he likes. But that doesn't mean he should articulate those thoughts. Around here we have this quaint custom called "Docs or STFU".
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide You don't have to embrace psychiatry to leave scientology. Only a scientologist would want you to believe that.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide huh.. why are psychiatrists needed for mass exodus of culties. More like a bunch of thai hookers, or big bag of weed, or a bar that serve tequilla, or an S&M club. All of these things are proper therapy for ex-culties. I like that Freezone is essentially it's own cult just missing a charasmatic leader (paging one of the Mike's to the crazy tent). I'm surprised they don't hand outside cults and chant "JOIN US.. We also worship Hubbard."
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide His theory makes no sense to be either but Why would you even need doc/x if you didn't have a theory to start with? First you guess, they go look at stuff to see if your guess is right. Like that one class where you got to go outside to collect rocks and leaves and stuff.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide As an avid supporter of Dox or STFU, I hope this isn't true. If so, you're scaring me again.
Re: Steve Brackett - OT - commits suicide HALP! The Thought Police are after me! So much for the freedom of the internets.
