Scientology: Lies and the Lying Liars

The public image of Church of Scientology (CoS) has been taking a beating in recent months in no small part to Scientology's celebrity poster boy Tom Cruise. His attack on Brook Shields, his interview with Matt Lauer on the today show, His jumping on Oprah's sofa, and then the internal Scientology video leaked on the internet has backfired on the church. Anonomous calls these idiotic errors of judgment foot bullets. Tom has been reported to having attained OT7, which is close to the highest level attainable in the CoS. If Tom is a representation of what Scientology can do for people not many wogs (non-Scientologists) are going to be attracted to join the Church.

At this point, no doubt, CoS leaders are hoping to let this flap die down so that they can continue scamming people who haven't heard about the abuses committed within the church. When reporters question CoS spokespeople about internal abuses they are denied even in the face of overwhelming evidence that shows otherwise.

Many outside observers find it incredible that CoS officials can lie so blatantly. However, ex-members show no surprise at all. In fact many of the ex-members report that learning to be an effective liar is one skill all new members learn early in their indoctrination into the cult. The founder of the CoS, L. Ron Hubbard was a habitual liar. To read more about the Lies and Lying Liars of the Church of Scientology click - Here -

Scientology Ethics - Control and Hypocricy

If you get involved with Scientology you will soon learn that the word ethics takes on an entirely new meaning. And observers and ex-members recognize that the way "ethics" are handled in Scientology is a crucial part of the methods used to control members. Any critical thinking, or any individual subjective observation or insight about the "tech" that doesn't conform to Church dogma is "out ethics." If have discovered something that works better than standard "tech" you are "out ethics." Part of "Keeping Scientology Working" (KSW) is enforcing ethics both on oneself and on others. So, members are always on guard to catch any break in acceptable behavior as defined by CoS. Having critical thoughts about L. Ron Hubbard or doubts about the efficacy of Scientology "tech" will get you sent to the ethics officer for handling. The ethics officer will do a run down to find the source of the problem. If the problem cannot be corrected immediately then the member may be handled in different ways. You may be forced to write up your crimes for hours or even days until the ethics officer is satisfied that it has been handled. You may be routed out (kicked out), put into a lower condition, or sent to RFP if you are a sea org member. Members learn very quickly that it is much easier to put their doubts out of their mind. Having doubts reflects very poorly on the person having doubts. If you've paid thousands of dollars to get progress along the bridge why on earth would you risk losing it and be forced to redo expensive courses just to consider the merit of outside criticism. The truth is few dare risk reading anything that might jeopardize their standing in the Church. It is as they say, "counter-intentional" self-defeating behavior.

As a Scientologist you learn that "ethics" means you need to be honest with other Scientologists but not necessarily with "wogs" (non-Scientologists). As a Scientologist you find out that it is OK to deceive and manipulate "wogs" if it promotes the goals of the CoS. And the attitude toward those who would dare speak out against Scientology or simply report the truth about the illegal activities of the Church of Scientology is totally outside normal social bounds. In this case the policy of "Fair Game" maybe applied. It is OK to lie to them, cheat them, or destroy them utterly.

To put it simply, "Scientology Ethics" is an oxymoron.

My Karma ran over my Dogma

This article was written by a member of the Church of Scientology who left after 34 years. In the early years of Scientology there was little talk of it being a religion. Early Scientologists were primarily interested in the tech. Getting benefit from it directly and in helping others to benefit from it. Later, L. Ron sent out orders to all the missions to call themselves a church and for all auditors to call themselves ministers. They were in the middle of a battle with the IRS to get tax exempt status so the religious cloaking was vital to their case. So, although they never talk about God, they now conduct weekly religious services at each church. If the intent of the church leadership were sincere about wanting to clear the planet the price they charge for religious services (auditing) would have to come down.
