I thought this was somewhat interesting. I found a little similarity between ACE and Scientology. Open a different tab or window in your browser. Of course you knew that. Or maybe you couldn't figure that out if twelve years of ACE turned your brain into complete mush. Anyway, go to the following web site:
[
xenu.net]
Scroll down about 2/3 of the way down the page. Look for the picture with the caption: Inspector General Representatives. Apparently these are members of the Scientology police that keep order in that cult.
Ok, now open another tab or window. And go to the following web site.
[
www.aceministries.com]
You will see a red button that reads, "For four years of exciting ACE history, CLICK HERE." Your browser will open or download a timeline.pdf file. Scroll down to the second page. Look at the picture under the year 1979. "First students enroll in the International Institute." Do you see the similarity? When I saw this I had to direct your attention. If you didn't know already, Scientology is a bad organization. Look at Scientology resources all around culteducation.com. Looking at these two pictures side by side makes me kinda laugh to myself because the school I attended was becoming a cult. No one really saw it because the church actually maintained some sort of normal image but the ACE school that lived within behaved much like a cult. I posted a story about some young ladies on November 19, 2009 08:45PM. And the point I made was that the cult-like aura started small among a few and festered in the ACE school, until it infected the whole church body.
There are any similarities between Lester Roloff and L. Ron Hubbard. But that's for another posting...
