In a recent post on his blog, Marty talks about a company called Survival Insurance. Survival Insurance, for those who don’t know, is a business owned by a Scientologist. So, for all intents and purposes, its owned by the CoS. The owner of this business recently gave the IAS 10 million dollars.
Now, its not my business what people do with their money (hey, I like to spend mine on hookers and blow!), but I will agree that this guy was an idiot to put 10 million dollars straight into DM’s pocket. Especially since he is now declaring bankruptcy, and that 10 million would more than cover he debts (or so Marty claims). However, the true idiocy is found in Rathbun’s insistence that people should find out who this guy’s creditors are and let them know about the 10 million dollar donation. Somewhere in his mind, these ‘creditors’ will go to DM himself and demand that the money he was given, be given to them.
Unfortunately Marty, that isn’t how it works. If you spend your money on hookers and blow, and neglect to pay your bills, your electric company is going to go find the hookers, or the drug dealer, and say “that money is supposed to be mine.” No, they’re going to put your debts in collections and drag your ass into court. But in your imaginary world, everyone and their mom realizes that DM is an evil cunt, and is going to go after him because you suggested they do so. It doesn’t work that way. Ask your wife, she lives in the real world. Perhaps you should get a crash course in “reality” from her after you get done giving her courses in science fiction. Hey, who knows, maybe you guys can meet in the middle!
