Greetings, John!

Actually the site is operated by an organization called
the Organized Crime Civilian Response which is a pilot
project covering a number of organized criminal scams,
not just Narconon.

I'll cover these issues to the best of my recollection with
opinions:
A great many quack medical scams are not ended by law enforcement
in America, sadly. Even larger scams than Narconon (such as
Nutrasystems and the parade of endless quack diet operations America
is subjected to) are routinely ignored by the FDA and bunko law
enforcement agencies. Fortunately the Narconon scam hasn't been
entirely ignored. The scam has been one of the major reasons why
law enforcement agencies in Greece, Belgium, France, Germany, Spain,
and Belgium have raided the Scientology crime syndicate
(see http://www.raids.org/ for the latest.) Indeed, the Narconon
quack medical frauds in Madrid, Spain is one of the main reasons
why the Scientology crime syndicate is on trial in Madrid right
now. While your "International President" Heber Jentzsch skipped
out on bail and failed to show up for his trial, he left behind
other ringleaders which apparently couldn't afford to flee to America
to stand trial. That trial is scheduled to resume on the 16'Th of
this month. (See http://www.holysmoke.org/heber/heber.htm for
specifics.)
Another wonderful event was getting the Narconon scam thrown out
of Utah's justice system. Unbelievably a judge had unknowingly
been sending children into the hands of the Scientology crime
syndicate and, when she found out, put an immediate stop to it.
She was so embarrassed by being snookered by the Scientology crime
syndicate that she wouldn't even answer questions for the television
reporter who covered the incident. And really who could blame her?
She corrected the mistake and that's all that matters. She
doubtlessly saved lives and maimings.
As for the unusual claims about radiation, while they're unscientific
and obviously based upon L. Ron Hubbard's profound lack of understanding
about basic atomics, they can become deadly when mixed with quack
medical notions involving massive amounts of niacin which, sadly, has
been the cause of a great many maimings of victims who fell for the
Narconon scam. The anecdotal claims of Scientologists ordered to write
"wins" to make "amends" or to acquire "stats" are easily dismissed.
What matters is science and science, as you've seen in the medical r
eviews of Narconon's quack medical notions, not only debunks Scientology's
claims yet also cover the frauds as "potential lethal." The amazing
whoppers that Scientology tells its followers -- Chernobyl? How amusing -
are lies on a par with the organization's claims to having educated 1.5
million African children. The syndicate tells numerous whoppers without
giving sufficient details to test the validity of their un-evidenced
claims; it's what they do (see http://bringto.lightofday.com/confirm.htm
for specifics on the debunking of the African children claim.)
If Narconon worked, it would be covered in credentialed, peer-reviewed
medical journals and other scientific journals. When it's mentioned at
all in the scientific community, it's debunked utterly. One of the
reason why the Scientology crime syndicate usually doesn't admit upright
that Narconon is Scientology is because they know that every school,
every community, and every facility which would otherwise support Narconon
would - and do - immediately revoke their support. At times the
Scientology crime syndicate will publicly admit that Narconon is
Scientology however it appears to be an admission that is made accidentally
by spokespeople who haven't "got their TR-L in"
(see http://www.holysmoke.org/cos/latey.htm for specifics on TR-L.)
Science dictates what's a workable solution, not emotional belief in
criminal scams. Narcotics Anonymous -- the real Narcotics
Anonymous organization - has been in operation since 1947 and has a
tremendous history of successes which can actually be verified. Their
process - unlike Narconon -- doesn't involve magical unscientific
notions for solving problems. Unlike Narconon, participants aren't
ordered to write "wins" to try to sell the program to people
to try to rope them into a criminal cult.
The last thing that people suffering from addictions need is to be
swindled by a criminal organization bent solely upon rooking them out
of every last dime and suckering them into the very same criminal
organization. People suffering from addictions need real help and the
only organization out there which has a proven, workable, and truthful
process to help them in Narcotics Anonymous.
I hope that helps. Since you're a Scientologist you already know
all this yet I thought for the purposes of starting an E-mail section
I'd address the salient points. E-mail affords the opportunity to add
content to web sites and I thank you for your assistance. And no,
don't bother denying it. You post whoppers in three newsgroups,
uk.local.london, uk.politics.drugs, and alt.drugs. The insane rants
about psychology and your Scientology cookie-cutter web page at
http://www.myreligion.scientologist.net/johnwood/ evidence a serious
pathology yet also shows your lack of credability.
I just hope that you don't subject yourself to the dangerous quack
medical scams you're advocating. Nobody deserves that kind of treatment.
If you want help getting out of Scientology, you might consider contacting
the Lisa McPherson Trust (see http://www.lisatrust.net/ for contact
information.)
Good luck.
