    They don’t strike me as being particularly bothered by things like the truth.

    “According to the OT III account, Xenu was an extraterrestrial ruler of a galactic confederacy who, tens of millions of years ago, transported billions of beings to Earth (then called Teegeeack), placed them around volcanoes, and killed them with hydrogen bombs. The disembodied spirits of the victims, called thetans, are said to have become attached to surviving bodies as “body thetans”, contributing to spiritual and psychological difficulties in the present day. Scientology teaches that these entities can be identified and released through specialized procedures at the upper Operating Thetan levels.”

      Forgot who we were talking about tbh lol. I do think real life examples might help, but you’re certainly not wrong that plenty of other things kinda gotta be glossed over to get to that point anyway.
