Here are some quotes, with comments, from George ...<br />Here are some quotes, with comments, from George Orwell’s 1984:<br />“The swallowers of slogans” (members of WCG)<br />“Who controls the past (HWA’s autobiography), controls the future; who controls the present (HWA) controls the past.<br />“Orthodoxy means not thinking-not needing to think (WCG member’s attitude to what is taught). Orthodoxy is unconsciousness.”<br />“It was not the man’s brain that was talking; it was his larynx” (Gerald Waterhouse and others preaching).<br />“She had not a thought in her head that was not a slogan, and there was no imbecility, absolutely none, (British Israelism, one true church) that she was not capable of swallowing if the Part (HWA) handed it out to her.”<br />“The old man’s memory was nothing but a rubbish heap of details (HWA Sabbath Bible Study in AC Gymnasium). You could question him all day without getting any real information.”<br />“ . . had long since ceased to be a painful memory and become merely a distasteful one.” (Feelings of those who left the WCG).<br />“If he were allowed to have contact with foreigners (non-WCG people) he would discover that they are creatures similar to him and that most of what he has been told is lies. The sealed world in which he lives (WCG Bubble) would be broken and the fear, hatred, and self-righteousness on which his morale depends might evaporate.”<br />“So long as they are not permitted to have standards of comparison, they never even become aware that they are oppressed.” <br />“We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it (RCM). Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution (HWA in the CofG 7th Day) in order to establish the dictatorship.”<br />“You know the Party slogan, ‘Freedom is Slavery.’ Has it ever occurred to you that it is reversible? ‘Slavery is freedom’? (Slavery is freedom to be independent and choose for yourself).<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-56750788992330519332013-11-15T17:14:31.979-08:002013-11-15T17:14:31.979-08:00Boy. I would just swear that this dude had been a...Boy. I would just swear that this dude had been a Scientologist prior to coming to the knowledge of Armstrongism. I wonder if he has an E-meter and audits his members as part of the conversion process.<br /><br />As for the other position, the Kama Sutra one, my cat jumps up on to my chest while I'm laying on my couch watching TV, and starts purring and licking my beard. I wonder what these ACOG pseudo-administrators would say about allowing a pet the power to dominate one in such a way.<br /><br />BBByker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.com
