Right. Not all Toastmasters clubs have 'open membership.' For example, corporations can have their own clubs and only admit people who work for the corporation. In this case, the requirements for getting into this club were that you take a Scientology class or two and not say nasty things about L. Ron Hubbard or Scientology.

Was the prohibition on saying nasty things only inside the Toastmasters meetings? It seems like a dangerous precommitment.
