first of all, the reader might be interested in benji's three experiences with scientologists, in sydney, ny and auckland, successively; the first was like a bit of a joke, walking to university from a friend's nearby home, saw a bunch of scientologist young adults (or maybe older or younger, too hard to remember) marching quasi-militarily into their underground carpark, it seemed like it would be fun to infiltrate their ranks there and then, the infiltration was soon discovered and the security guard posted was kind enough to show benji around and explain their beliefs..... (ii) ny, like some train station, they had a table with their stress-test kit and counselor and gave away a free copy of their exploding volcano book,... (iii) after renting a car in auckland and making for coastal highway to drive along northern coastline, scientologists were helpful in printing out google map instructions...... harmless people, polite, reasonably sane
it was interesting to learn that south park's isaac hayes (voice of chef) quit after south park's 2005 scientology bashing episode..... as a result of it.........
but what do they believe in? mostly a bunch of crap invented by a science-fiction writer, who, like many other science fiction writers, writes a bunch of crap -- in this rare instance the writer becomes head of a quasi-religious organization... assuming maybe he was a virgo and believed his own crap....nope he was a pisces, there you have it....
one source for ancient pasts that you can rely on is 19th century russian helena blavatsky who founded the 'theosophical movement'.... blavatsky recommended one kind of science fiction writer (author's name evades writer) but the book written was apparently called 'S.H.E' and according to blavatsky, it was a case of a science fiction writer drawing real information from the Cosmic Mind and presenting it as a science fiction......... this possibly was also the case to a far lesser extent with Tolkien and a number of other writers who give free reign to their imagination which in turn may in fact be drawing from the 'Universal Mind'
none of Hubbard's writings seems not to do so much and mostly seem to be crap (vis-a-vie Reality)
what alot of people today cannot understand is that there have been uncountable civilizations of predecessors to today's Man right here on Earth... only the Ancient Egyptian civilizations spanning thousands of years before the times of Jesus presents the student with such a body of knowledge so large (were he able to access it), that it would be enough for a lifetime of study right there.... and these are real civilizations, not to be confused with the monkeys inhabiting Europe thousands of years ago... possible exceptions being the Celts maybe (but not even)
Scientology's assertion that people reincarnate on Earth from other planets is valid, but apparently they teach that some space warrior Xenu (means 'happy' if you consider them cyrillic letters writing happy in english) came to Earth 75million years ago and farted loudly......
what's most interesting about Scientology is their use of legal systems in various countries to achieve their ends: religious status, stopping others slandering them, suppressing their own quasi-mystical (science fiction, or bad science fiction secrets), they also seem to be at the forefront of using the legal systems of the various nations they operate in to protect their perceived electronic/internet rights.... they are self-funded and classed as a religious organization in many lands and charge alot of money for their teachings which are basically just silly science fiction writings.... some big Hollywood names are interested in their teachings and scientologists consider that a feather in their cap and a validation of their beliefs whilst for said hollywood types, scientology provides a distraction in the confusing world of 'why they are so rich and famous when so many people are starving and anyway the world is weird'
however, scientology, being bunk, is akin to if you create your own cosmology and say: well in the beginning was Adam and i am a direct descendent of Adam and my great, great, great grandfather 10,000 generations ago performed the Golden Schi-ism and from that moment the matriarchs in our lineage have been shitting on the men's chests...... it's all crap, right?
but is it any dumber than the anglo-american-media-liberal-arts-university junta? NO... it's not, it's no dumber or hypocritical or phoney or false than the anglo-american-media-liberal-arts-university junta anglo-saxon name/tokenist movement.
furthermore, scientologists are quite right to decry modern psychiatry
