Scientology Technology and Children

Churches of Scientology believe that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, applied broadly, will reduce human rights violations across the world and will also help defuse the anger that causes racial and religious conflicts. But for any human rights charter to be effective it requires understanding and application.

Therefore, Scientologists work to bring about a greater awareness of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and encourage its practice. Churches of Scientology have for many years made human rights education a priority and so they helped to establish Youth for Human Rights International (YHRI), whose members have traveled the world teaching youth about human rights.

Tom Cruise, on Scientology

...I think also you look at Scientology it is the fastest growing religion. It’s helped so many people. I know it, because I use it and I am a Scientologist. And it’s extraordinary, is what it is.

To the wind, these words...

To the wind, these words
To the sea, my soul
To the sky, all hope
To the earth, this bone

To you, my love,
And our children, joy

To the moral, vision
Darkness, rhythm

And to my enemies,
Who have always praised me loudest,
Fullness, nothing more.

Jon von Gunten

Today's submission is a little different. Jon von Gunten discusses "Mr. Fix-it", a ghostly mechanic:

Mr. Fix-It first manifested himself after my over-zealous son totally disassembled the pedal-brake assembly on his old bike. Once apart, they seem to comprise a hundred little metal rings that must be reassmbled just so. He gave up in frustration. The project sat for days.
Saturday morning my son came bursting in to thank me for fixing his bike. I paused. It had not been I. I suspected my girlfriend had paid a bike shop to fix it. She swore it was not she. I asked neighbors on both sides if they had anything to do with the event. Had they seen anybody? No, and no.

But the bike was sitting in the garage, neatly put together, with its foot brake assembled and working like a Swiss watch -- and no one was responsible. We named "no one" Mr. Fix-it and thought no more about it.

About a year later, I found I had thoroughly twisted up the tape inside an audio cassette. I was able to separate the halves of its shell and get inside, but found it had an intricate and convoluted tape path. My fingers were too big to manage the fussy job, so I left my project on a counter and went to fetch a tweezers. I got sidetracked on some diversion for about ten minutes.

As I sat down to finish -- my tweezers at the ready -- my mouth dropped. The tape had been neatly threaded through all the posts and turns in the cassette. All I had to do was rejoin the two halves of the shell. Was it one of my kids, my girlfriend. I think not. I was alone in the house.

Except, of course, for Mr. Fix-It.

Spiritual Quote - Bruce Chatwin

Spiritual Quote



“Psychiatrists, politicians, tyrants are forever assuring us that the wandering life is an aberrant form of behavior; a neurosis; a form of unfulfilled sexual longing; a sickness which, in the interests of civilization, must be suppressed.

Nazi propaganda claimed that gypsies and Jews – peoples with wandering in their genes – could find no place in a stable Reich.

Yet, in the East, they still preserve the once universal concept: that wandering re-establishes the original harmony which once existed between man and the universe.”

Mother Theresa

At the end of life we will not be judged by how many diplomas we have received, how much money we have made, how many great things we have done. We will be judged by 'I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat, I was naked and you clothed me. I was homeless, and you took me in.' Hungry not only for bread - but hungry for love. Naked not only for clothing - but naked of human dignity and respect. Homeless not only for want of a home of bricks - but homeless because of rejection.
