The True Face Of Scientology

"Lawrence" babbled incoherently:

Well, at least it's got the word Ford it in (kind of)...........

[Cory Dunkle]

Why don't you get your book published and not post it in newsgroups. I read
a couple paragraphs and didn't see anything even remotely related to cars,
let alone Fords, except when you fatehr drove you to church to be audited
(??).
