The weekly show where I answer viewer questions left for me in the comment sections of my Q&A videos or sent to me by email at AskChrisShelton@gmail.com. This week, the questions I answered are:
(1) Do you have any idea who the people in David Miscavige’s entourage are? What are their job titles?
(2) As you already know I am a child of the Deep South. I see all the time and all around me, friends of mine who possess this fervent faith in a God of all types. They are good people (far be it from me to dissuade anyone who believes in a God, especially if they believe that it does improve their life.) However, I just don’t have and now that I look back on my life, never had a belief that strong. Where do you think that comes from? I wonder because these people seem so spiritually fulfilled and hopeful.
(3) What is atonement and a liability formula? Could you please go into detail about these topics? If you could remember or create good examples of the situations when these would be used.
(4) I just want to confess something. Seems like most of these videos have people who joined the Sea Org to help other people or mankind in general, yourself included. In spite of how wonderful this sounds it never motivated me at all. When I joined the SO it was entirely for selfish reasons. I believed I would get the whole bridge for free. And I stayed away from all SO recruiters until Gold recruiters came to town. I really wanted to learn and use state of the art sound recording technology because I am an audiophile, and I had heard of Clearsound. I saw Gold as the perfect solution to all things: get the tech under my belt and get the Bridge for free. I had no thoughts for the people of the planet. When I failed my sec checks I got during the EPF and was rejected for Gold, the main reason I stayed was because I had burned my bridges behind me having sold my car and spent my little remaining cash. I had no confidence I could just leave, find a job and a place to live. I was stuck, so I stayed. During the ordinary trials of sea org life I never heard people talking about fulfilling their purpose of helping people, these were just things that got mentioned at events etc. So I don’t know just how self sacrificing the average SO member really strives to be for the public. I don’t know, maybe I’m just selfish. What say you?
(5) Chris, Do you have to start over in each of your new lives? If so, why would members spend so much time and money for such a limited use of the powers/insights that one supposedly gains?
(6) Enterprise or Voyager?
(7) We all know that OSA monitors all the supporter groups, all the blogs, books, articles. etc. I was wondering if you know if any of these “agents” have had a needle prick put into their bubble after reading all the stories? Sort of like what you did when you started checking out the internet? Do you know if any of these people have had seconds thoughts about their beliefs and maybe left the Sea Org and eventually the church?
(8) Do you know of any upcoming movies of either Paulette Cooper, or or any other events, ie Blown for Good. Seems like there would be a lot of good material for a good movie.
