If you have proof that Laura Terepin is an OSA plant you need to
present it. If you have no evidence that she is a plant for OSA, at the
very least you should apologize to her. At the most you have libeled
her.
In any case using the very same Dead Agent tatics that Scientology uses
is distastefull. Pot........kettle.......black

The critics have always been a loose confederation, not a federation as

Let me set the record straight on a couple of points because I'm fed-up with
the carping, sanctimonious bullshit and hypocrisy by a handful of carpers,
sanctimonious bullshitters and hypocrites on ars.

Deana at best mis-remembered or at worst lied. She did ask me for work (I
told her that I personally had nothing for her to do) but that FACTNet had a
number of projects that needed volunteers. That was not good enough for
Ms. Holmes -- she needed money. I told her FACTNet could not afford to pay
people at that stage because of a lack of resources. She had the solution
- - - --"Bob, why don't you fund a position for me at FACTNet"?

A few others on ars who are among my most virulent critics have also asked
for outright handouts from me and I have declined. They have e-mailed me
praising my efforts and sucking up big time. That is not why I do what I do
vis-a-vis Co$. I declined to assist some of these people. They then went back
door via Stacy to try and convince her that I should listen more carefully to
the merits of their needs or case.

I cannot help everyone who needs help for God's sake. There are hypocrites at
work here on ars and we all need to ask who they are really working for.

Need you think I am being alarmist, FACTNet, yes FACTNet, discovered an OSA
operative who had been run in on Stacy back in May 1998 for the express
purpose of gathering intelligence on my activities and Stacy's. OSA was
successful. They had unfettered access to information about me and my
whereabouts, Stacy's inner circle of friends, FACTNet records, Dan Leipold's
office, Graham Berry's office and other juicy bits of info. Not only that,
this plant had worked for the Cult Awareness Network for years and was an
intimate friend of Cynthia Kisser, Craig Branch and a number of others active
in the counter-cult movement.

Her name is Laura Terepin. She is a whore who works for the devil named
Scientology. Jesse Prince will post details of how we came to discover her
activities and her daily reports to OSA in LA when he leaves Wellspring in a
couple of days.

Now I will point out the obvious: Nothing could make OSA happier than to
watch the critics on a.r.s. trash FACTNet and the people who are trying to
move FACTNet in the direction of helping former scientologists recover from
their experience in the cult. Indeed, I have to wonder about the timing of
this latest attack on FACTNet, coming as it does so soon after our
announcement that our emphasis in 1999 will be on helping former
scientologists recover.

This kind of attack is straight out of scientology's play book. Someone
is deliberately instigating this attack on FACTNet, just as someone is
deliberately trying to turn critic against critic on ars. Does anyone on
ars doubt that scientology views the situation on the internet as a war?
Does anyone doubt that scientology is prepared to do whatever it takes to
destroy ars and its critics? Does anyone seriously doubt that scientology is
behind the protracted spam attack on ars?

Think about it: who has the most to gain from creating a mob mentality that
will cause the critics on ars to turn against critics and FACTNet, the only
counter cult group willing to confront scientology?

I urge Deana, Anti-Cult and Martin Hunt to consider whose hands they are
playing into by leading this assault against FACTNet. Scientologists are
experts in the art of manipulation, and that is exactly what they are doing
here. Imagine the glee David Miscavige will feel when he receives the
compliance report to his order to turn ars against FACTNet. His operatives
in OSA are doing an excellent job of wreaking havoc on this newsgroup. And
the ars critics who are going along with this attack like puppets on a string
are giving Miscavige and his OSA lieutenants a real chuckle lately. Don't you
realize how contemptuous they are of you? Can't you see how you are being
manipulated?

But I'm afraid OSA has whipped these people into such a frenzy of hatred at
this point that there is not much chance my appeal to reason will be heard by
them. My message is really to the rest of the people who are watching this
lynching, undoubtedly horrified by it, and wondering what is going on. Have
no doubt that you are seeing a classic black PR caper in action here. Their
attempts to destroy me, Stacy, Jesse, Grady and Lawrence individually have
failed miserably. Now they are trying a new tactic: Destroy FACTNet, thereby
destroying the work all of us are trying to do to help scientologists.

None of us in FACTNet will let this happen. FACTNet will continue its work to
help former scientologists, no matter what kinds of attacks scientology
launches to stop us. This current strategy will not stop us any more than
their earlier strategies have.

I urge all of you to join us in our work to defuse scientology's evil. I
particularly urge Deana, Anti-Cult and Martin to recognize that FACTNet is
not the enemy here. We should all be working together.

Make the first step then.

Make the efforts to verify the 'Dorian' story that have been asked of
you. If the verification shows that the story is a falsification, then
announce this, and stop promoting it.

I read your post with interest, Bob. It is, of course, no surprise that OSA
has infiltrated people into organizations that it feels are inimical to the Cof
S and I would definitely guess that FACTNET would be at the top of the list.
I don't know what is fuelling the latest list of rabidness about FACTNET but
I would certainly be willing to assume that OSA would view increased activity
on your part coupled with FACTNET to be a large threat.
But - and I have to say that this is a big but - one of the things that I
personally have liked about ARS is that people are free to argue and even be
nasty about their feelings for what one or another is doing or saying. It is
the antithesis of scientology in that regard.
I have a lot of admiration (and, no I do not want money from you) for
stepping into what must, at times, be a bewildering world of
critic/da/propaganda - and of your own free will no less and I wanted to
encourage you to continue with what you are doing and don't worry about the
crap that flies around. It will fly where it will - some of it will be OSA
inspired, some of it will just be sheer orneryness of all the different
critiics on here but in the end it won't matter. Either the truth about
scientology will get out or it won't - being drawn into defending yourself and
your actions is just a distraction.
Sorry this isn't the lucid message I had hoped it would be - the basic point
of it all was to say - hey you have done a great job so far, don't sweat the
occasional burst of crap that comes up!!
And, I am sure Jesse has pointed this out - this girl isn't the first and she
won't be the last.

Who the F is Laura Terepin? I missed quite a few posts amidst the spamming.

Is Bob going to respond to questions?

Is Jesse going to respond to questions?

I think it is extremely important for all of us to realize that scientology
does consider this a war, and they are utilizing all of the tactics of warfare
that they have learned from their policies and the books they are assigned to
read as part of their intelligence training. The booklist that we were all
required to read included Sun Tzu's The Art of War, Clausewitz's On War, and
Sefton Delmar's Black Boomerang, a book which was included because it was
about successful black PR operations during World War II.

This attack on FACTNet has all the earmarks of an OSA black PR operation, and
so far it has been working very well.

Let me give you a quote from a scientology bulletin titled The Third Party
Law, 26 December 1968:

"I have for a long time studied the causes of violence and conflict amongst
individuals and nations.

"If Chaldea could vanish, if Babylon could turn to dust, if Egypt could become
a badlands, if Sicily could have 160 prosperous cities and be a looted ruin
before the year zero and a near desert ever since - and all this in SPITE of
all the work and wisdom and good wishes and intent of human beings, then it
must follow as the dark follows sunset that something must be unknown to Man
concerning all his works and ways. And that this something must be so deadly
and so pervasive as to destroy all his ambitions and his chances long before
their time.

"Such a thing would have to be some natural law unguessed at by himself.

"And there is such a law, apparently, that answers these conditions of being
deadly, unknown and embracing all activities.

"The law would seem to be:

"A THIRD PARTY MUST BE PRESENT AND UNKNOWN IN EVERY QUARREL FOR A CONFLICT TO
EXIST.

"Or:

"FOR A QUARREL TO OCCUR, AN UNKOWN THIRD PARTY MUST BE ACTIVE IN PRODUCING IT
BETWEEN TWO POTENTIAL OPPONENTS.

"Or:

"WHILE IT IS COMMONLY BELIEVED TO TAKE TWO TO MAKE A FIGHT, A THIRD PARTY MUST
EXIST AND MUST DEVELOP IT FOR ACTUAL CONFLICT TO OCCUR.

"It is very easy to see that two in conflict are fighting. They are very
visible. What is harder to see or suspect is that a third party existed and
actively promoted the quarrel…."

The point is not whether this is true or not, or whether Hubbard was
delusional or whether his hyperbolic writing style was even worth the paper it
was printed on. The point is that scientologists believe this Third Party Law
to be utterly and unfailingly true. And what they call "Third Party tech" is
one of the main intelligence tools they use to break up any organized
resistance against them.

This is what is being done on ars. For those who remember COINTELPRO, this is
how the FBI broke up organizations like the Black Panther Party. They used
agents provocateurs. They created rifts between the leaders. They got them at
each other's throats, and then let them destroy their own organization. The
FBI just sat back and watched them destroy themselves.

What I am trying to say is that scientology has a new strategy. It is to use
ars to destroy FACTNet so that FACTNet will be powerless to help anyone coming
out of scientology. Please don't assist them in this srategy.

If you have a disagreement with something FACTNet has done, or something that
an associate of FACTNet has done, we should get together to discuss our
differences. But don't let scientology manipulate us into becoming enemies. We
aren't enemies. We have common goals.

Don't let scientology drive a wedge between us. We should be working together.

This is embarrasing. Do you have any idea how it looks to be denouncing people
like this without evidence? The charge is difficult to believe, and so you
create an entire atmosphere where even your friends are left wondering how they
can defend this outburst.

I don't know what was said that made you explode like this, but relax. Have a
soothing cup of tea. Have patience with your critics. All of them. Remember
that we are not out to get you. Don't take it personally when someone seems to
resent you.

And the evidence had better be good to justify all this anxiety. Especially
since Kisser doesn't seem to believe you.

And as for FACTNet, if I give them money I expect to be allowed to criticise
them. Tell Dorian his Darwin is terrible. He sounds like a... dare I say...
"pseudo-intellectual."

This is not a matter of using dead agent tactics. I am the one Laura was run
in on. I was extremely unwilling to believe that Laura was an agent, because I
had come to consider her a very good friend and confidant and I was telling
her literally everything that was going on. I was presented with evidence that
was incontrovertible and still I refused to believe it. It was impossible for
me to believe that this person whom I had trusted so completely could really
be betraying me so terribly.

But several things happened that finally made it impossible for me to deny it
any longer.

There have been two women run in on me before her. Both followed the same
pattern she did. Both totally disappeared once they discovered they were
blown. Laura did the same thing.

There is no way ever to be one hundred percent sure that someone is an agent.
Any kind of evidence can be explained away. All I can say is that, to my
dismay, there were finally so many indications that she was an agent that I
very reluctantly had to conclude that she was.

If Jesse's in Wellspring, how come I got an email from him today about
something posted in a.r.s? If he's on a retreat in Wellspring, I
would imagine he wouldn't have much access to the Net, but I could be
wrong. It just struck me as passing odd.

I asked the same question online. A lot of people know her although she never
posts here. I hear (second-hand) that Cinthia Kisser asked Bob Minton what the
evidence was but that he was not forthcoming. I also hear (from a different
ear) that this is old news that has finally leaked. A few people knew but only
Bob failed to keep the secret.



> Is Bob going to respond to questions?

Yeah, right. As if the gods would deign to address us individually. Besides,
there is a growing list of people who would not TALK to Bob Minton. I
understand where they are coming from. Even the appearance of making an
unfounded allegation/denunciation is the height of irresponsibility.

Even if the allegation is true, Minton will still owe us an apology for
exploding like that.

This is sad. Even if he had posted a lot of heresay TODAY, we could have read
it and said either "It is compelling evidence that she has sinned" or "It is
blarney and insufficient, you are wrong about her." Without evidence we begin
to suspect that there is none to provide. And so Minton comes off looking like
KOTM.

Personally I suspect that he just got really upset with someone else who found
some buttons to push. No excuse. Never lose your cool. Flame wars never earn
you any respect.

It is unbecoming for an organization devoted to helping people
to participate in the kind of dead-agenting you do above. It is
unbecoming for an organization devoted to informing people to publish
misinformation and unverified stories on their website alongside
verifiable first-hand accounts, as though they were of similar
veracity.

Put your figurative guns down, Bob - we're only the messengers.
Most of the critics who have criticized FACTnet have not done so
without cause.

> I urge all of you to join us in our work to defuse scientology's evil.

I would love to, but I have some grave reservations about the tactics
currently employed by FACTnet. When those are alleviated, I will
gladly support you. I'll be one of the first to volunteer.

I find it ironic that you claim that FACTnet is not the enemy in the
same post where you so adequately demonstrate scientological "dead
agenting" skills. If you're not the enemy, why are you borrowing
their tactics?

Yes. I have not forgotten this. We are like annoying neighbors on a block
where at the end of the street is the mother of all annoying neighbors:
ScientologyŽ

There is a qualitative difference between "Mirele doesn't like me" and
"Scientology doesn't like me."

What do you expect? That he taped the phone call where you allegely said


"Bob, why don't you fund a position for me at FACTNet"?

If this is true, it is really silly of you. Bob isn't the employment
office for a.r.s. members.

B)
Now about this Laura Terepin - Bob/Stacy, please consider a setup by OSA
in reverse, i.e. that they try to make it appear that she is a plant.
(They did this with Michael Flynn - teling him that one of his clients
was a plant, while actually plant(s) were working in his office)

In germany, there is a critic who has already accused several people of
being pseudo-ex-scientologists or OSA plants. Among them is even one guy
who published an anti-scientology book.

The best if you think that someone is a plant is 1. make a setup, i.e.
tell an information to the plant only and see the reaction, 2. if it is
confirmed, profit from the plant by having it work. For example, in
Clearwater the plants help to increase our picketing stats.

C)
I wish FACTNet would remove the Dorian and the Fable stuff - this is
indeed not in character for an organisation that has the word FACT in
it. Think about the second one - should it be called FABLENet ?

The FBI did indeed use a number of nasty tricks agains the BPP, AIM,
Cispes, Earth-First!, and etc. Some of their most notorious tricks
(such as getting one BPP member to kill another) relied on existing
failures to communicate. OSA is similarly preying on the stuborness
you and others have shown regarding the Dorian stuff.

Bob's apparent repeated posts of Dorian's insane rants, and Bob's
apparent complete intransigence when it comes to answering or even
recognizing criticisms has caused one of the worst rifts I've seen in
all my years on ARS.

If you and Bob want to see some healing of wounds and some solidarity
then it's time to get down here with the ground-troops and have a
little Q&A session, full of honesty and free of innuendo, guilt-trips,
and holier-than-thou pronouncments. Serious. Work to undo the rift,
or see it continue to get wider.

I would say that we should all be working against the same evil
rather than all working together. Only strong personalities will
dare oppose the Co$ and strong personalities are less likely to
agree with each other. You will never get a common agreement
about how to fight the Co$. It is better if each of the strong
personalities juts gets on with what they feel is the approach
that will succeed. In some cases it will be wrong. Sometimes
right.

There were also similar assurances that proof would be provided that OSA had

No, Keith.

It came out because Bob was backed into a corner over questions over
FACTNet, and he lashed out.

Gee, you did such a wonderful job of showing it to Cynthia Kisser.
(Hint: you didn't show it to her even though she asked more than once

Bob Minton, did you write the above message? Why did you use this account
instead of your normal one, and why isn't it PGP signed? Just checking.

Bob, did you or anyone associated with FactNet write this anonymous
message? I hope you'll answer in a PGP signed message in the newsgroup.
With all those OSA ops on you, using PGP in your messages would probably
go a long way in helping keep things straight. At least it would prove to
some that you personally disclaim the message. Thanks!

As usual, Deana Holmes is pissed off at being cut
out of the employment pie at FACTNet.

Doesn't the title of the articles itself admit that it is
the "self-declared" founder of Scientology speaking out?

And why do you think that a statement by a person you
never met, Ralph Dorian, is less reliable than all the other
testimonials reckoned to be scripture by other critics' pages.

Aznaran? Wakefield? Tabayoyon? Armstrong? Erlich?

How do you know that Ward didn't make up the story about
his mother and his wife's bank?

How do we know that Holme's really has picketed as much as
she *said* she has?

No she and anticult just see this as another way of bashing Minton.
It's not so much that she is flaming someone; after all, that is the
basic unit of currency here on the internet. But she is
kicking at someone who is suffering intense harassment by scientology.
She kicks a person when he is down.

And she had asked him for a job at FACTNet, too.
I bet she didn't tell anyone this on a.r.s!

Deana Holmes: one icky lady.

Luckily her sex with Ron Newman did not result in more bad genes
being spread into the world. Good riddance to poor white trash like her.

I have never asked you for anything Minton. May that be very clear to

or handouts if you want to call it that. My fight against the criminal
cult of scientology, have so far been done with my own resources, and it

Now then, since Minton claims that he met with Dorian, I'm sure he can
confirm or deny the location of Dorian too. Will we ever see him do that?
Hehe, hardly :-)

Now then, a straight and very simple question to Minton, and since OSA
apparently already know where Dorian lives, (if that is true) there's no
danger in confirming or denying this:

Bob Minton: Does Dorian live in the Oakland hills?

Note: This question will be repeated on this NG, until an answer is given

A long Rant Stacy, but not any denial about the anon DA article on Deana.
Minton rants, you rant, and non of you denies that Factnet or any of you

Now then, since Minton claims that he met with Dorian, I'm sure he can
confirm or deny the location of Dorian too. Will we ever see him do that?
Hehe, hardly :-)

Now then, a straight and very simple question to Minton, and since OSA
apparently already know where Dorian lives, (if that is true) there's no
danger in confirming or denying this:

Bob Minton: Does Dorian live in the Oakland hills?

Note: This question will be repeated on this NG, until an answer is given
by Bob Minton.

Why should OSA send an undercover person everyone knows? Maybe people
applying for the position of webmaster while still having their personal
spam page?

Get real!!! In Germany an undercover guy was exposed last year. His name
had been removed from all official lists decades ago.

I suggest you consider treatment for your general anger.

On this Dorian thing: If I wanted to know who someone was, and he wouldn't
tell me but I had his address, I would go to the County of that address and
look up the ownership records of the address. Now, anyone in the
International banking business, or any homeowner for that matter, knows these
ropes. Why have you not done that, Bob? The message that you have posted
indicating that you have heard these horror stories, etc. etc. are no doubt
true; but painting all x-scientologists as victims does not wash and is
untrue and insulting to those of us who do not wear the victim valence. You
make it appear that you have written hundreds of checks to these poor
victims. I wonder how many x-scientologists that you have actually written
checks to? Not me....but then, I am not a victim. The idea that one can
curtail the nefarious activities of huborg by throwing money at x-members is
not an intelligent decision. The Dorian story is so bizarre that it
discredits the manymanymany true experiences that have been revealed by
x-members. I suggest that you contact John Sanborn on this story. I know for
a fact that he was ron's editor for the book Science of Survival
onward.Possibly before that issue. I feel for you. It appears that you are
being used and abused.

I do not need any credibility from you, Rox.

I would only point out that this arose because I had the gall and the
temerity to ask FACTNet (which is apparently Bob Minton's alter ego)
why it was reposting the Dorian stuff on its page. For that I was
anonymously dead agented, and as far as I can tell, we can see what
Bob's response is: all the Dorian stuff was reposted in a 12 hour
period.

But after Flybrat questioned why Grady Ward was involved with FACTNet,
I guess Bob just blew a gasket and went nuts, posting these
allegations against a woman most of us had never heard of. I can only
believe that he did it now because he had no further information upon
which to DA me or anyone else who had the chutzpah to question Bob's
infinite wisdom, knowledge and forethought.

I'd also note that Bob has said we will not see the proof of these
allegations. Again, it's the same old song and dance. There was no
proof with Dorian, we have to accept it on faith; there is no proof to
be seen with this woman being DA'ed by Bob; we have to accept it on
faith.

Critical thinking seems to be terribly lacking here.

I'm sorry if my filthy mouth got in the way of my message, but here it
is for you, straight up, no swearing.

I am not going to accept anything of such a serious nature (such as an
allegation that a person is an OSA spy) without some proof. We had
such a case on irc #scientology involving wgert. We had no proof
until quite recently, when wgert posted a fax to
alt.binaries.scientology that had come directly from a Scientology
PI's fax machine (the sender was left on the edge of the fax).
Granted, it's not perfect knowledge, but it confirmed what had been
suspected all along.

If Bob expects us to take him seriously, he should pony up the proof.
I suspect he may have a problem with some of that, because some of his
"proof", I am told, involves phone logs. In the United States, it is
generally illegal to get such information without a court order. If
Bob presents such information, his PI may have violated a number of
laws to get it.

Moreover, even if Bob has "proof", it has to be taken in the totality
of the evidence. As I explained to someone I know on IRC, I lived for
six years in an off-campus cooperative at the University of Texas.
Some of my co-residents were drug users, and at least three were
arrested during my last year there for dealing drugs. (See, OSA, you
haven't dug hard enough.) But that was three out of over 120
residents, and that was over a six year period. I could be accused of
living in a drug den, but if you look at the totality of the evidence,
that can't be said to be the case.

I look forward to seeing and dissecting the evidence Bob claims to
have, but I don't think we'll ever see it.

Good one Deana, you are a like an onion sandwich, you keep coming back
even though you are grossly unwelcome.

Minton has not attained the height of meanness but, you are surely
about to arrive there. Give it up.

Finally a statement based on reality. You might consider that if OSA
is extremely frightened of the power that a "loose confederation" has
in exposing their crimes and abuses wouldn't it make sense that they
would ardently desire to destroy the aforementioned "confederation" in
the event that it becomes more organized?

I believe that Bob Minton's effects on scientology goe light years his
money. He's an organizer and he would still be an organizer if he was
broke. And I'll guarantee you (and OSA) this: if Bob Minton woke up
tomorrow without a dime to his name he would not want for anything
that his friends could provide.

any of my work against CofS (I might suggest some things you could do,
but it's entirely up to you whether you listen). I'm neither an
uncritical supporter nor a rabid critic of yours, with the reservation
that I do think Durian is utter bollocks; but, hey, that's hardly
unusual around here, and is my honest opinion.

I seriously doubt that they "own" any main figures though. They just
turn up under new anonymous names saying "bite him, Diane", "hit back,
Deana", etc, and trying to set everyone against everyone else.

Likening our Bob to Timothy Leary, playing "really deep games with
people and even governments"? LOL Trust you to come up with something
like this, Keith.

Which reminds me, a while back it appeared that you'd convinced yourself
that "Dorian" was real. You also seemed pretty sure of yourself when
you wrote that you thought you knew who he was. Is likening Bob to
Leary an attempt to explain how you could have been duped for as long as
you were?

In the past we all thought ScientologyŽ was too incompetent to pull off
something like the Laura Terepin episode. I think that desperation has caused
competence to crystalize within the church. Someone has been in a condition
of power on this covert operation for a while without getting sent to ethics
on a whim. Who would have thought Hubbard's management techniques were so
effective? They are probably using squirrel-tech.

I think there is a real person who goes along with the nom de plume, "Dorian."
I think he is about as real as L. Ron hubbard. I am more interested in what
Dorian has to offer (if anything -- so far I'm not impressed) than in driving
all over California trying to determine Clarabel's secret identity.

Jeez Vreejack I am not sure where or what you base that statement on but that
is dangerous complacency when dealing with the cofs.

The cofs has a long history of infiltrating people into organizations. Bear
in mind that people who are recruited for this will quite willingly do or say
anything secure in the knowledge that though they may be telling a lie it is
for the greater good.

The cofs can rationalise any action taken against an opponent - and I mean
any. That does not mean that they will do anything wildly illegal - it just
means that if they did do something wildly illegal against an opponent they
would feel absolutely no shame or remorse or anything other than annoyance
about being found out.

The ONLY thing that stands between the CofS and offing opponents is the law
of the land - not the CofS "ethics" - in fact the cofs would feel totally
justified in executing every opponent they could get their hands on.

I bet that OSA and RTC wonder why they are being criticized when they are
being so restrained...

But back to my main point Vree - the CofS has ideal recruiting fodder in the
oridinary scientologist and has had a lot of experience in infiltrating.
Covert Operations are not an area of incompetency - in fact one of the best
covers they have is that no-one expects a "church" to do this sort of thing


DeoMorto - the truly censored.

First rule of war. Don't alienate your allies.

Cynthia Kisser apparantly has had a hard time getting you people to
deal with her over the OSA spy nonsense. Call her up, call your PI up,
and get this settled with Cynthia. If there is proof that she had
been opped by OSA, you and Bob should not leave her twisting in the wind.

Call her now and get this resolved.

The Dorian crap and other nonsense is simply nonsense, but
after a month, Cynthia is still in the dark though you claim
that she has been informed of all of this.

If you all cannot handle THAT, and we know little more than
that this has not been competently dealt with, how can we trust
that you all will handle anything else competently?


Settle this please. And get TROs on the cult.

If Minton has time to post here about the Dorian crap, and he has, he has
time to call the PI and tell him it is OK to talk to Cynthia Kisser.
Cynthia asked for this and it was not done and your PI, quite properly
refused to talk to Cynthia when she called.

This is garbage.

Fix it. Now.

Speak for yourself.

I certainly think it's possible that Scientology pulled off something
like this, however I am not yet convinced that:
a) This is actually what happened
b) Minton's approach has been the correct one

Bob said that Dorian lived in a mansion, and that he ( B0b) went into a room
which measured 10x13 ( or whatever) with 9 ft. ceilings. Was this room
floating in space? Was a room set up with "ancient" archives somewhere so
that Bob could go into it?

there is apparently a "bunker mentality" at FACTnet mirroring the "mob
mentality" outside. frankly, both outlooks have been growing problems to ars,
and this isn't the first time weird shit on FACTnet has caused problems.

i am frankly doing my best to bolster FACTnet's position where i see it is
defensible. but this dorian shit on FACTnet has pissed me off, as well as
minton not only not responding at all to the very grave impeachments of dorian's
credibility, but instead just blasting out all the dorian shit as reposts then
threatening even more unsubstantiated bogus dorian shit.

i certainly agree here. how the hell can you tell someone like cynthia kisser
all this stuff and expect her to just buy it? cynthia kisser is not an idiot.
frankly, i consider the word and beliefs of cynthia kisser far more important
than those of bob minton and i don't give a good goddamn about their respective
bank accounts.

if kisser says something is bullshit, and minton says otherwise, and claims to
have evidence otherwise, and doesn't produce it, i'm inclined to believe cynthia
kisser, in the absence of any hypothetical evidence.

kisser has not had her credibility impeached in any manner. minton has already
impeached his credibility with this utterly incredible and unbelievable dorian
crap, which smacks of magical thinking.

>Call her now and get this resolved.

>The Dorian crap and other nonsense is simply nonsense, but

i agree, this is indeed MATERIAL FACTS. and cynthia kisser has done a hell of a
lot more on the front-lines than damn near ANYONE on this newsgroup, including
you, bob.

i am inclined to trust her experience over that of a relative newcomer,
especially with the increasingly-tiresome "i don't need evidence for the likes
of you" refrains FACTnet is spitting out.

cynthia kisser *AIN'T* on the list of people you can just blow off without
permanently losing any shred of credibility. either cynthia gets this
information that DIRECTLY impacts her life, and can then either confirm or deny
this stuff, or you guys will lose a HELL of a lot of credibility.

>Fix it. Now.

i have to admit i'm getting skeptical. i am still doing my best to cut slack to
this, but anyone not completely an idiot would resolve this situation, one way
or the other, IMMEDIATELY.

either this person is an OSA agent or she is not. either this person has phone
records indicating phone calls to OSA or she doesn't.

in either case, i get increasingly suspicious when people make increasingly
elaborate claims, and at all steps UTTERLY REFUSE EVEN THE SLIGHTEST BIT OF
ACTUAL GODDAMN FUCKING EVIDENCE!

i do not think i am some kind of "OSA agent" or deranged idiot for wanting
evidence of someone who has inflicted utter fairy stories like "dorian" on us.

without evidence, i don't believe this person is an OSA agent. i have heard too
many bogus stories without substantiation, or outright wrong, to believe any
crap i hear from anyone (even jesus himself) if he does a song-and-dance when
asked for evidence.

either this person is an OSA agent or they aren't.

either this person has phone records to OSA or they don't.

NOTHING NEW IS NOTHING NEW. substantiate or shut the fuck up.

i hate to get uppity about this, but what the fuck. i have taken shit from
minton people over not just buying this garbage sight unseen. i have taken shit
from anti-minton people over my increasing skepticism.

the only final words i have, to BOTH sides,
are PUT UP OR SHUT UP!

Is that the reason you are restricting yourself to presenting only
your conclusions here? That you wouldn't like others to have a look at
the "evidence", because *they* might come to the conclusion that it
isn't as "incontrovertible" as you thought?

Please do realize that sofar you (and Bob) merely presented an
allegation here. And yes, that basically is the same tactic that
$cientology uses all the time. Not very impressive, I must say.

Personally, I cannot see the "advantage" of keeping things like this
"evidence" (or the background story about "Dorian") to yourselves. I
would think that being as honest and open to the outside world about
anything you feel or know, can only help. Not only to prevent the
endless (and perhaps often baseless) speculation on this newsgroup,
but also to effectively and immediately counter any -supposed-
"attack" by $cientology.

And last but not least, being honest and open will help yourself. Life
is so much less complicated without secrets...

Of course, explanations are the first thing. But you probably will
have to admit that your opinions have been wrong once in a while, as
soon as you adopt this "openness". And even the occasional apology
will be required for. If it is that you're afraid of, I'll be sorry to
hear it.

Now, if you don't mind, I'll be turning back my attention to
$cientology. My time is already stretched. I do not need these
apparently baseless distractions from the real battle.

Boudewijn, Kox.

So I guess it's "true for you", huh?

It seems you have some reason for keeping this "proof" up your sleeve.
A reason that needs to be surrounded by secrecy, apparently. I suppose
you must think that is a "wise" thing to do.

I happen to think that what you're doing is very silly, given the
history of this war, and I cannot help myself but wonder about your
motives.

BTW: No! I won't take anybody's "word" for any claim, if it is
presented in this fashion. I might as well be a $cientologist myself
if I would.

I have little time for the "dorian shit" either, but isn't it time to, like,
get over it? There's plenty of other questionable material out there, by no
means all of it on FACTNet. The "dorian shit" simply doesn't warrant the

It should be evident by now that harping on about it simply provokes Bob to
keep posting it. The people obsessed with it are at least as guilty as he is
for keeping it in the public eye.

The whole business is now just tedious, and it's time to let it drop.

Mike Rinder, Marty Rathbun, Norman Starkey, David Miscivage--they are all
whores! And anyone else, male or female, that sells out to scientology
perversion of humanity for evil in order to destroy lives for money is also a
whore.

I in no way mean whore is a sexist way and I am sorry if it has offended
anyone.

The most interesting thing about this claim to me was that it was not
voiced by Stacy Young (who told me about it in a phone call) until
*after* it was suggested by others on a.r.s.

I asked Stacy why Bob Minton would be willing to place himself in
such a vulnerable position (being blindfolded and taken to an unknown
location by people unknown to him) when, after all, he calls himself
Scientology's Public Enemy Number One. After all, it doesn't seem to
be very prudent to put yourself in such danger when you have the CoS
as an enemy.

Stacy could not answer the question adequately. Her only response was
that Bob was just "that kind of a guy" or something like that.

Bingo. Very well said, Zane. Thank you.

I agree, Stacy, Bob. I've seen entirely too much DAing and not nearly
enough evidence, when you're politely asked, (then rather pointedly
asked :), to provide it.

I'm seeing 'Always Attack, Never Defend', DA, and unsubstantiated rumors
instead the documentation necessary to convince a large and very
unorganized group of critical thinkers with similar goals.

If you want us all to work together, (I'd very much like to!), you're
going to have to talk WITH us, not TO us.

We haven't ever exchanged more than a few words in person, and I don't
know if you've ever read the reasons why I post here. I don't do it
because I hate the CO$ members. I don't do it because I think they're
satanic or godless. I don't do it because I think the CO$ uses mind
control.

I post, read, and picket, because I watched the critics stand up and
document their evidence, with police records, FBI reports, and the CO$'s
own documents. Then I watched the CO$ do -exactly- what they critics
said they would, getting caught in lie after lie when the facts were
actually checked.

How can I NOT continue to look for the facts, to keep my path sure
amidst the billowing flames? How can you, as someone privy to those
very lies during your time in the CO$, how can you not expect that from
all of the critics?

I'd love to be on your side - as long as I'm sure you're still on mine.

I do not have any desire for anything that Bob can "provide". I also

This tells me more about you than about Bob. I've been "playing
around" with large sums of money (yes, millions of dollars) enough to
know how that *should* feel. I also know the feeling of not having any
money. If Bob loses his "cool" this easily, he shouldn't be in the
"front" he is in currently. And, yes, I *am* really wondering...

Suuure. "Playing games" with people and even governments is allright,
when done by Bob Minton, but not when done by $cientology...

I'm a bit surprised about the violence of these emotions.
Bob has offered his money so often that it shouldn't be considered
impudence if somebody decides to take him up at his offer - neither
by himself nor by others whom he tells about such an attempt.

It also should be clear that while his fortune might be a lot of
money for a single person, it's still peanuts compared with the
funds of the church, or compared with the magnitude of money which
would be needed to set up a worldwide FZ net which could
efficiently compete with the church, so that their members
had an easy alternative. (I believe that this is the only thing
which would stop the church's abuses with tone 40).

Bob's contributions can NEVER cover everything which is needed -
whether he likes it or not, he has to apply them with the same
justness you have left if there is only one watering can
for a whole field which needs water in order to grow.

Which plants do you water, and which will not be able to grow
up because you had only one watering can?

I don't think it's a solution to insult the guy with the one
watering can. He DID his share. My question is, where are all
the others who have water too, but don't bother to bring it
out to the field? What about THEIR shares?

Word of mouth. I've never seen a description of the incident on ars, but
I do remember being told about it at a Mountain View picket. (not the

Fast and loose with the names; better check that mirror, Bob.
You whine about Scientology being a Bad Thing[tm], then go
and engage in the same behaviour as they do: threatening people
with physical harm, dead-agenting them and assaulting them. Now,
what's that big word that begins with "h" that describes this
kind of behaviour? Hi-something. No, not "hip" or "hippy".

Oh, is this another Bob Dorian message? It's so hard to tell what
with all the garbage spewing from this account. And so many people
use it that the personality portrayed by the account is positively
schizophrenic. Or is that MPD? Whatever.

Hey, Bob, I asked you for some bucks to buy a CD burner (guess what
for) and other equipment; am I your "most virulent critic" and did
I "suck up to you big time"? Gee, I'm sorry; you could have said
"no". Instead, what i got was dead air, from you, from Stacy, twice.
If someone asks you for something, the least you could do is tell
them to fuck off, but I guess you're such a big man, so important
(or is that self-important?) that you don't feel the need to be
even close to polite.

Frankly, I don't consider you an asset to the anti-Scientology
movement; your picket signs alluding to the Holocaust are a
disgusting afront, your behaviour varies from violent to hostile
to bizarre, this Bob Dorian thing makes me question your sanity,
and you're a hypocrite to boot.

"Slapped the dog shit" out of any victims of Scientology recently?

Ah; you're probably alluding to me. When you totally fucking ignored
my email twice, I asked Stacy to forward it to you: you had said
on ars, as I recall, that you were too full of yourself to answer
your email or something.

I work for Scientology; day and night for the past half decade, I

Careful with those religious allusions; you might break your nail

organization. You sound like Hubbard with all your proselytizing.

FACTNet doesn't exist; it's just a gourp of people. A group of
people, imnsho, that are often wrong, misguided, engage in spamming
and fiscal irregularities, are somewhat dishonest, but do certainly
hate Scientology. A group of career critics, if you will. I think
they could use some perspective. It would also help if they were
more forthcoming; in the early days of ars, they simply would not
confront direct questions or answer minor criticism. Some of us have
never quite forgiven them this attitude - particularly since it
never really went away.

>Indeed, I have to wonder about the timing of

Yeah? Well, I'm a former Scientologist; help me recover. :-) I
guess I'm just nto ready for prime time, eh? Not quite in the loop.
That suits me just fine. Tight knit groups that don't permit of
any criticism just aren't something I'm into any more; I left
that environment for good a decade ago, and have no intention
of returning to it.

Oh, like the picture of the bloody samurai sword, btw; is that
meant to indicate you're out to kill victims of Scientology?
Nice imagery; everyone I know who saw it thought you were a
real fucking asshole. Tell me it ain't so.

>This kind of attack is straight out of scientology's play book.

Yeah; and the boogeyman lives under your bed. Bob, you're mentally
unfit to be a critic or an activist; could you please drop the
anti-Scientology movement and go on to do something else? Go and
fight for some important issue close to your heart; maybe the
environment or overpopulation or civil rights. There's plenty of
causes - you're not doing this one any good.

>Someone

Who gives a flying fuck? Strength in diversity; just remember those
words.

>Does anyone on

Does anyone on ars doubt that you've done bizarre things lately?
Maybe you've got a brain tumour; I've heard of people wigging out
when they get one of those. Go get a check-up; I think there's
something wrong with you. Your post is tantamount to a paranoid
rant, and you seem to spend most of your energy attacking critics.

>Does anyone doubt that scientology is prepared to do whatever it takes to
>destroy ars and its critics?

Yes; I don't think, for example, that they'll take up weapons and
descend on us poor critics and wipe us all out.

>Does anyone seriously doubt that scientology is
>behind the protracted spam attack on ars?

I believe they're behind it, but evidence is slim.

>Think about it: who has the most to gain from creating a mob mentality that

Ars is as it ever was - and ever will remain. The day no disenting
voice is allowed, the day no self-criticism is allowed, the day
we're all forced to row together, I'm outta here, man!

>I urge Deana, Anti-Cult and Martin Hunt to consider whose hands they are
>playing into by leading this assault against FACTNet.

I'm not "leading" any "assault" against FACTNet; you're suffering
from paranoid delusions. There's absolutely no doubt in my mind
that Scientology has gotten to you. The problem is, it's gotten
too far, and done too much damage to you. This is really only
a battle for the strong minded; I frankly do not believe you were
prepared for all that has been done to you - and make no mistake,
a lot of evil shit has indeed been done to you. But Scientology
has succeeded; it has fucked with you until you are no longer
who you once were. I sincerely believe you should spend some of
your millions on yourself and fly to Bali and chill out on the beach
for a couple months - and don't take along any means of contact
with the internet or Scientology critics.

They're certainly manipulating you.

I don't do this for/against DM's glee. Frankly, DM's glee is a
non-issue with me.

You see this all as some grand battle with these people, don't you?
When I see DM, I see a victim, someone who wasn't given a chance at
a normal life, someone who was mindfucked by the master when only
a child, and who will never recover. He may be your nemesis, but
to me, he's a pathetic figure, deserving only of my sympathy. He
will never have what I have, and I feel sorry for that.

>His operatives
>in OSA are doing an excellent job of wreaking havoc on this newsgroup.

Who cares? Nothing they do can stop the global ass-reaming the cult
is getting *right now*, and will continue to get for the forseeable
future.

>And
>the ars critics who are going along with this attack like puppets on a string
>are giving Miscavige and his OSA lieutenants a real chuckle lately.

You're the puppet; DM's got you dancing the paranoid jig all over
the place, going off half-cocked and making an ass of yourself.
You're divisive as hell; if DM has any immediate source of glee,
it is over your own behaviour, and how easy you are to manipulate.

>Don't you

Take a long look in a full-length mirror. Then take a deep breath.
Then depart for a well-earned rest; you're stressed out, and it
shows.

Here's what's going on, for the confused: ars is now as it ever was,
and ever will be: a free for all where any opinion and any fact is
posted. Bob has engaged in some pretty irrational behaviour, and has
been chided for it. The source of Bob's irrational behaviour is the
stress the cult of Scientology has so artfully applied to him. Bob
needs a rest.

Their attempt to destroy me has failed even more miserably. :-)

I don't believe FACTNet is in any new danger; certainly not from

No, we shouldn't. In any case, FACTNet didn't take me up on my
offer to volunteer to create a media index of thousands of newspaper
articles, citing possible legal constraints. How can we possibly
"work together", then? Better we work apart.

I have no problem with people working for FACTNet; the more the
merrier - just as long as they aren't wrecking themselves in the
process, which is what I honestly believe you are doing to yourself.

You know, if the whole of FACTNet disappeared tomorrow and everyone
went on vacation, things would go on much as they always have. No
one is indispensable, not even the great Bob Minton.

All of which makes me question your judgment!

it absolutely floors me who people will trust these days; people
are *far* too free and loose with their deepest level of trust.
What's the gain in finding some stranger, someone who's hardly
known at all, and just giving all your trust to them?

I've had Scientology agents in my house, as well as some of
the the cult's most well-known critics; there's no *way* I would
trust some stranger and just tell them everything off the top
of my head like that! There's many things that I simply have not
told anyone here. Why should I? There's risk, and no possible
gain. Things remain a secret just so long as you don't tell
anyone else; you should be harder and tougher, Stacy. Don't be
so free with your trust when it comes to matters Scientological.
It's probably not just you that you burn, but others who trusted
you. I guess they learned a hard lesson here too.

It's impossible for me to believe that you would trust some stranger
so completely! You surely lack judgment in these matters, and after
all you've been through, that's amazing.

In future, trust no one. Why bother trusting them? I don't trust
anyone when it comes to this. In other matters, it's not so
important, but when it comes to Scientology, I'd ask Nan McLean
for photo ID and have a nagging doubt in the back of me 'ead about
Gerry Armstrong. Frankly, there's simply no good reason to trust
anyone. Obviously double agents are apparently very trustworthy
people, so why trust anyone?*

*Don't apply to matters outside this domain, of course. I'm
talking about Scientology only.

>There is no way ever to be one hundred percent sure that someone is an agent.

Right!

Our minds are good at that.

And you might be right and you might be wrong, but be more
circumspect in the future, OK?

It sounds more dramatic this way. Keeps us all in suspense.
Laura, if you're out there, I'd like to hear your side of the

I've heard too many loose-flung accusations for one day. Arnie
says there's another operative that's been "confirmed". Say,
how do you confirm an operative, anyways? What's the usual

But I don't. People fight for all kinds of reasons, few of them

But the tool doesn't work. It's invalid "tech". Take a look at
Usenet someday. Not just ars, but just any old newsgroup. What
you see is flames everywhere, conflict, argument, debate, criticism.
Is Scientology behind all the flamewars on Usenet's thousands of
newsgroups, or just this one?

Just because there's conflict on ars doesn't mean that the
cult is behind it. No causal link has been established. For
example, I might be arguing in my spare time.

>This is what is being done on ars.

Prove it. You made a claim, now back it up. Prove that anything

Yeah, but this ain't like no other organization you've ever seen,
or the world's ever seen. It has a life of its own, a mind of its
own, and is decentralized, not dependent on "leaders".

I'm skeptical. What goal do we have in common?

No, we should be working apart. You do your thang, and I do mine.
Arnie's rowing together didn't work, and this latest attempt at
conformity is a waste of precious typing.

Let's all do our own thing, OK? I'm just not happy with Nazi
signs, blood-dripping samurai swords, slapping the dog shit out
of people, shotguns, threats of beatings, DA attacks, Bob Dorian,
and arrogant, self-obsessed fuckwads.

YMMV.

Known it the trade (British) as a "marked fiver", referring to a piece
of currency with a mark on it, used to determine its source.

Tom Clancy also talks about "canary traps" - several versions of a
report with slight variations in wording, used to determine which copy
of a report the leak originated from.

All good standard counter-espionage stuff.

Though i cannot prove it, I think that some of those people can be still
on recent lists; the reason for this is logical: people become clams:
they write success letters; they are in the course's lists (can escape
to the possible vigilance of the OSA goons and Gold's cretins who have
to cross-check them for I/A - issue authority -, so we can have them
sometimes on lists where they could be suppressed.

Not certain, but a possibility!

I'd bet "they" could as well try this with me... not only they did not
sued me for now for the multiple crimes adocumented in the book, but as
well, they did not do many moves toward me till now. Fear of

I dunno if it's needed as long as neither part is well documented; like

I am going to take it as a given that OSA ran an op through a PI.
They have done stuff like it before. And that they used info
to harrass Bob and Stacy. And that raised suspicians. And that
Bob hired a PI and the proof was dug up quickly enough.
It's not that hard. I take it as a given that Bob has good
hard evidence.

And that Terpin is the agent that wormed her way into Stacy's confidence.

I'll give Bob that.

I do hope that he sues. And I'd like to hear from him he is actively
pursuing something on this front. Which I have not.

Scientology keeps doing this. And escaping punishment.
That is why they do it. But the manner in which the inadequately
apparently have dealt with Cynthia Kisser in this leaves a bad taste
in my mouth.
I am more 'n a little POd' in fact about it.
And this leaves me wondering if FACTnet, Bob, Stacy et al
know what they are doing.

If I had been scammed like this, knowing Scientology's reputation
for trickery and fair gaming people ect., I'd be getting injunctions,
cease and desist orders and TROs against Scientology.

It's easy enough. Scientology gets them all the time against critics on
flimsy grounds.

I wonder then at the lack of such efforts.
And what else is going on and what else obvious is not being done.

We little net people are one thing, Cynthia Kisser and CAN are another.
The way this was handleed so far does give me pause as to the competence
of Factnet, Bob, Stacy et al. Actually reading how Cynthia waited for
that call, didn't get it, called the PI, only to find Bob had NOT
contacted him as requested, has ticked me off.

Things like this should NOT be.

And no more nonsense like this should occur.

I'm confused, then, about why you wrote "Bob has never had "Dorian's"
address." If he's been there--and had his eyes open the whole time--then it
ought to be a simple enough matter to go on back and make a note of the
street address. Wouldn't you think so?

Ignore my last post if it makes it to your server, Keith. When I wrote it,
I didn't understand that you were confirming the part about being
blindfolded.

Thanks.

yeah, well, basically what minton has done is already blown a good portion of
his "hand" to the cult by talking about these cell phones in the first place.
the cult already *KNOWS* what cell phones they were using and i'd be surprised
if they don't just dump them all and start over.

the only people being kept in the dark here are US. cynthia kisser is being
denied information she needs for REAL, IMPORTANT reasons affecting the whole
anti-cult movement.

bob has just made his bet. now it's time to turn over the cards.
