Now that you have clarified and re-clarified your point, let me state
again, based on what I've read from L.S. and other posts I've read by
Fishman, even without regard to what anyone else has said:

Neither Fishman nor L.S. gives an accurate account of life inside
Scientology(tm), how Scns think or what it's like to be in Scn.  None of
that.  Worse yet, much of the above is blatantly mis-characterized in
L.S., based on my own years of experiences.

A person who has never been in the Church of Scientology(tm) would get a
very inaccurate impression from reading L.S. or Fishman.
