Scientology vault

Monday, 28th November 2005 by James

These two giant inter-locking circles encapsulating diamonds apparently signify the ’secret’ location of a huge Scientology vault which has been constructed to protect the writings of L. Ron Hubbard, etched onto stainless steel and stored in titanium cases.

According to former members of the group, future Scientology fans will be able to travel through time and space, in a spacecraft which looks a lot like a Douglas DC-8 airliner, to reach this site.

More about the area in a recent Washington post article.

    Or, you know, they could simply land a regular plane on the airstrip directly to the southwest.

    Ah, those silly scientologists… I remember reading about this on fark and someone said in a few thousand years when scientists from the future discover this tomb, they will cry.
