   This is truely what the Phattman said.

   Hey, f*ckbrain ... God is not an "it."

   Several pages.  Wow.  Phatso talked out of all three sides of
   his mouth about God.

   Ultimately he gets his story straight on the Oat Tea 3 
   material.  God is an implanted concept from R6, 75 million 
   years ago.  He was was installed in our reactive minds with 
   the body thetans and clusters.  He (the Big BT) responds to 
   exorcism.

   Here he talks about a sociological phenomena regarding a belief
   in God.  It is not a discussion of the Diety or the theology 
   of scientology.  Because there is none in all of his 
   droppings besides God the Implant.

   There is no discussion of God whatsoever except as an
   implant.  The bearded judge on the cover of Fundamentals of
   Thought is what Tubbard said the R6 (implanted) god looked
   like.  That's why he used the symbol on the book cover ...
   just like the volcano on Diherritics ... to restimulate you
   wogs.

   And besides the wogs won't like the answer.

   As in past lives and demonology?

   As in turn the other cheek?

   YOU F*CKING HYPOCRITE!  Crawl off and die, scum.
