That satanic cult video was creepy

The analytical va reactive is interesting. I can see the appeal of overcoming past trauma/events and not allowing those negatives to dominate your reasoning (reactive).

There was a director or producer who did a story about this previously. He said Scientology, for all its bat shite craziness did teach how to fundamentally bypass paralyzingly past events and conflict control. The guy said that he still used lessons he learned in Scientology about how to diffuse situations in his everyday life. The problem was the hundreds of thousands of dollars he had to pay to reach the next level and the sheer craziness of the theology. He talked about trying to leave and they would blackmail him with all his confessions. He also had a daughter raised in the church who was essentially kidnapped from him. I wish I could remember his name. I can picture him with his bald head, long ponytail, and full beard clear as a bell but not his damn name. His story was remarkable.
