11:29a	Drug-Free Kids There's a program my church sponsors, called the Drug-Free Marshals where kids pledge to live drug-free lives. The program provides activities and friendships, and agreement that it's cool NOT to take drugs, which gives kids the extra help they need to counter peer pressure to the contrary. (Comment on this)
11:39a	Reading Dianetics I've been a Scientologist for many years, but I recently re-read the book called Dianetics: the Modern Science of Mental Health and was surprized how much more I got out of it this time than the last time I read it. One thing that I think is really helpful is that Scientology churches, missions and groups have Dianetics seminars and workshops where people can learn the skills laid out in the book. There is also an excellent "how to" DVD that explains many of the basic principles of Dianetics and enables anyone to connect up with another person intersted in the subject. Someone who uses Dianetics techniques is called an "auditor" from the Latin word "audire" meaning "to listen" because in Scientology and Dianetics, the person who helps someone with this techniques listens they don't tell you what to think, they help you find your own answers. At a Dianetics seminar you pair up with another person and you audit him or her and he or she audits you. It's amazing how helpful Dianetics auditing can be, and how easy it is to learn and do.
