congratulations,
and a great example of rule #1 dealing with Scientology's quest for
silence:
Turn every (stupid) thing they do to advantage
You may have some time now to address my issue. I understood you have been
busy up there in Norway, with the police and all that. I made just now 2
reposts about the fair game issue and your SP/PTS pack.

well, while you are waiting for andreas to get back to you, perhaps
you can address this issue... but I doubt it, and be sure to check all

Duplicity and Understanding - The Scientology CREED
Update to:
http://www.lermanet.com/cisar/carto/ldidx.htm
February, 2005 - Duplicity and understanding
Which Creed is in use by Scientologists: the one published by the
Church, which proclaims that no agency less than God has the power to
set aside the inalienable right of all men
"to think freely, to talk freely, to write freely their own
opinions and to counter or utter the write upon the opinions of
others."
or Hubbard's "Battle Tactics"?
http://www.gerryarmstrong.org/50grand/cult/sp/pl-1969-02-16-battle-tactics.html
"The prize is 'public opinion' where press is concerned. The only
safe public opinion to head for is they love us and are in a frenzy of
hate against the enemy, this means standard wartime propaganda is what
one is doing, complete with atrocity, war crimes trials, the lot. Know
the mores of your public opinion, what they hate. That's the enemy.
What they love. That's you."
Perhaps both. How people who pay to attain god-like powers conduct
"standard wartime propaganda" can be seen in the outcome of
Scientologists response to real-life situations, such as the
following:
Exchange of letters between the SPOTLIGHT and the Church of
Scientology
concerning an offer to respond to a critical article before
publication
* THE SPOTLIGHT letter of October 29, 1993 to Mr. David Miscavage,
Church of Scientology
http://www.lermanet.com/cisar/carto/ld3.htm#931029
o Dear Mr. Miscavage: Historically this newspaper, our
publisher LIBERTY LOBBY and our Radio Free America talk show have
always had what we have believed to be a friendly relationship with
your organization, although very one-sided. We have repeatedly
extended courtesies to your agents and spokesmen in regard to vour
anti-phsychiatric drug projects, in spite of the fact your
organization has never reciprocated in any way. We are certain your
organization has attracted many members through the free and favorable
publicity we have extended through our media. Enclosed is a galley
proof of an article we plan to run in The SPOTLIGHT next week. ...
enclosures:
1. While one so-called cult -the Branch Davidian
Church- was being incinerated with taxpayer-financed government
military and police power, another organization often perceived as a
cult-the Church of Scientology-was being given tax-exempt status worth
hundreds of millions of dollars. ...
http://www.lermanet.com/cisar/carto/ld3.htm#931002a
2. Sidebar 1, THE SPOTLIGHT AND SCIENTOLOGY Over the
years The SPOTLIGHT had reported favorably upon some positive
activities by the Church of Scientology on several fronts: its fight
against the IRS, its battle for religious freedom and its efforts to
inform the public of the dangers of mind-altering psychiatrie drugs,
for example. ...
http://www.lermanet.com/cisar/carto/ld3.htm#side1
3. Sidebar 2, The SCIENTOLOGY AGENT. Operating one of
the largest private intelligence operations in the world, the Church
of Scientology keeps a close watch on other organizations and
institutions that either rival the church, may provide it some
assistance somewhere in the world or are possible recruiting grounds
for new church members. ...
http://www.lermanet.com/cisar/carto/ld3.htm#side2
4. Sidebar 3 CHURCH MEMBERS PAY BIG BUCKS Church of
Scientology members are largely highly intelligent, well-spoken,
clean-cut individuals. They don't wear strange costumes or sell
flowers in the streets. ...
http://www.lermanet.com/cisar/carto/ld3.htm#side3
5. TACTICS AGAINST THE ENEMY. The Scientology cult has
devised a wide-ranging array of tactics to be used against its critics
or dissident members. Over the years various details about these
methods have been reported. Here are some examples: ...

* Church of Scientology International Office of the President
letter of November 1, 1993 to The Spotlight
http://www.lermanet.com/cisar/carto/ld3.htm#931104
o Dear Mr. Ryan, I have received your letter addressed to
Mr. David Miscavige enclosing a galley proof of a story you propose to
run in The Spotlight. Your story is so far removed from reality that
it defies description. ...
In closing, I thank you for checking with us before
publication. Whoever your source for this information is, he has no
credibility and at best has a bizarre, albeit malicious, imagination.

Pursuant to our conversation the other day, I am

Congratulations, Andreas. No suprise the crime cult leaders do really hate
you.
I'm quite surprized to observe that they have not yet discovered all the
crimes they are so certain that you could have commited and could be still
commiting after all these years of war aghainst your websites!
No OTs there should probably explain the reason One,
while
No valid Tech, Admin and ethics should be the reason Two for these flunks!
roger
bwhahahahaha!!! this OSA crimecult asshole trying to look strong and ready
to win. Okay, stupid OSAer, don't you realize that Andreas started to combat
ytour criminal maffia since 9 years, that I started 22 years ago, that
people like Arnie, Gerry or Larry started also decades ago and that we are
still at it, with our low incomes and artisanal methods?
r
So, you doubt it... You just assume that I will not or that I can not... Why
is that?
In in fact addressed this already extensively with some discussion with
Gerry Armstrong, he however started to run from that (link to that post can
be supplied, I keep interesting links).
I am not interested in what some people did after L. Ron Hubbard disappeared
from the lines. I am not even that interesed in what people did when he was
still around. So, I will skip these. Why? because they do not add anything
to the discussion. People may very well have misinterpret things. Stupidity
of people who do not understand something, we have had through all ages.
Just like at the Jesus Christ phenomena, killing for the sake of purity or
something. Here it counts what Jesus himself said about things, not what
other made of it. Same goes for L. Ron Hubbard.

Issue appears to be quoted in full at that link (I verified). Now, why was
this issue written. It was written to handle a certain situation. A
situation that demanded certain handling to make the threat to the survival
of the organization and Scientology disappear. Extreme situations ask for
extreme ways of handling. Why should one not be allowed to defend oneself.
This issue is aiming at certain people, who do some specific things. The
critics on the ARS appear to make the EXACT SAME mistake as Scientologists
in general do. They take things out of context. One line (or paragraph or
even a whole issue) out of something is not always aiming at ALL people, ALL
situations. Apparently people have big problems to evaluate information and
how to take that information and to whom it is applicable.
Very few Scientologists actually now about the issue, if you read it while
being intern (if you got a hold of it somehow), then you were forced to sign
a bond saying that you do not disclose this information to those whom had no
use for knowing about it. It have not seen it applied when I was intern.

Here you see yet another facet of the deliberately limited mindset of a cult
dupe. In this case it's Scientology.
This operative thinks that by coming to the newsgroup and trolling a couple
of people he is drowning out the existence of articles at the Buffalo News
that are somehow already in print and online, and are STILL being read by
people worldwide. More and more people are finding out the truth about the
Scientology cult, and this loon comes here to show us all how a
Scientologist acts.
Here are the articles this operative is dreadfully afraid that someone will

Ok, it perhaps is a bit far fetched, I thought it would be clear with
regard to your implications.
You have often said something to the effect that people should find out
for themselves, go to the source and find the truth, instead of
listening to other peoples opinions or interpretations, and that critics
try to prevent people from doing just that (finding the truth).
You imply the same here (with you last comment), that Rogers actions is
diversion, so that people wont look into things and find the truth about
some things (in context about the policies, I generalize it to about
Scientology).
But fact is that a lot of people already have been there (in
Scientology), and firsthand found out about "things". People outside
have firsthand "felt" Scientology through its policies on
wogs/ex-members/critics.
You say this in one of your posts: (issue="fair game")
<quote>
HCO PL 21 July 68 cancelled the 1967 issue that they are upholding this
very day as being in use!!!! My God, it was cancelled already 36 YEARS
AGO!!!!
<end quote>
Fair game didn't stop 36 years ago. Ex-members say it. Victims say it,
which court rulings confirm. The church's "handling" of Andreas atleast
imply it. Whatever confusion you can make about the written words in
policies, has nothing to do with reality.
And it is not just fair game, as I implicitly hinted. Things like; OT
abilities, cure of illness, sanity or whatever Hubbard promised, is not
there. A lot of people have been there and found nothing. What is the
point in people finding out about Scientology in vain or fatality (like
McPherson, Perkins, ...).
That was "the message".
You want Scientology?, fine keep it to the spiritual parts. Socially and
"medically" it is a disaster.

you're giving what data? Lies from uncompetent or uninformed people? Very
scarce rulings that scientology was'nt (for once) not condemned?
r
Then go back to where I answered to your accusations against Andreas
and word clear the words andreas, gerry, arnie and so on :-))
Any idea how many blind people I have seen there. Is one of these examples
not Tory as well? When I say finding out, I mean exactly what it says.
Adopting something is not finding out. Finding out means persistence, it
means going to the bottom of things.

Once again, the organization is run by policy letters, as per policy it was
cancelled. Meaning that if it was used it was not as per policy, it was not
per L. Ron Hubbard, meaning it was not Scientology.

Is not a promise, you still don't get it do you.

I don't think you have a lot of people, this is the claim, but it is very
few in fact. Just make a list of all the names you got. Now make a list also
of all those who some time or another who did something in Scientology
during let's 1950/80. Your statistics may be a little out of balance, may
be...
I know and have met a lot of people who found a lot.

You assume, and you will not find out for yourself. I recall you did not
even know what a course was about. You have never been there. And now you
are here claiming stuff? Just great...

Scientology 'policy' is a deliberately chaotic Hubbub of conflicting
instructions intended only to allow Hubbard Himself to do any damn thing
he wanted, anytime He wanted, to anyone He wanted but still be able to
claim doctrinal support (from His own doctrine).
The *essense* of Hubbardian Policy is 'Never Do Anything Except What I
Tell You' while balancing it with 'I Told You To Do That Wednesday;
Today Is Thursday. What Have You Done For Me Lately?'

Thus the Scientologist operative seeks to confuse the issue, by at first
appearing to support the cult, then appearing to sort-of kinda criticize the
cult. Then it goes all Fluffy on everyone and says basically NOTHING, but
uses lots of words to do it.
Since L. Ron Hubbard said an awful lot of NOTHING despite his endless abuse
of the English language, and Scientologists have to emulate their dead
pill-addled guru at all possible times (well, all times isn't it Space
Chicken?), it follows that this operative must do the same.
But it still can't confront the Buffalo Times articles telling the truth
about the Scientology cult. This too is Hubbard emulation.

The ARS is really a meeting place of the critics. But none of the critics
face Andreas with his SP/PTS pack claim nor that he is since quite some time
avoiding my posts about that. Now why is that?
Yeah, that's right. Andreas is member of your cult, so he has to be right no

Spacetraveler likes to do cheap rhetorical tricks. By insinuating

That is just your claim, that they didn't find out. I think it is denial
on your part.
If the ex-members stories didn't support eachother or didn't match other
information that has trickled out, then I would be more cautious.
For example, when Tory and Gerry say that fair game didn't stop back in
'68, and recent courtcases support this, then I have no reason to
disbelieve it. Your presence and behavior here on a.r.s., I just see as
another piece of evidence.

It is just like that movie "Mars attacks". The aliens say "we come in

Take a recipe for crumble cakes, put on a sticker over the title, so
that it says applepie.
Now the million dollar question: If you follow the recipe, what do you
get. Crumble cakes or applepie?
In other words, just because the wording have been changed a little here
and there, doesn't mean the net effect miraculously changes from fair
game to something nice.

Scientology/Dianetics have been around since the fifties. Whatever
"they" (whom you speak of) did or found, it is not made very visible, or
hasn't made an revolutionary impact on society, as it would if there was
something to Hubbards claims.
Surely if Scientology/Dianetics could *effectively* cure insanity or any
other disease, then it would be something worth writing about, and if it
made people more "able", then where are the more able.

Oh look!, more rhetorical tricks :)
Yes, I have questioned things I didn't know anything about. You refer to
this thread of course.

But that doesn't mean I don't know anything about whatever I have an
opinion about or claim.
There is a lot I think point in the same direction, some gravely enough
to call it disastrous, if it where to become common practice. Treatment
of critics (i.e. Fair game) obviously being one of them. Their type of
management and use of RPF. Medical claims which dont work, and may keep
people from recieving proper treatment.
Recently read bits of his views on children:

[quote]
Long concerned with the well-being of man’s future, L. Ron Hubbard
developed dozens of techniques to enhance the welfare of a child. As a
basic orientation, Mr. Hubbard points out that the child is not an
enfant terrible who must be forcefully molded or broken if he is ever to
behave as a responsible adult. Rather, the child must be seen for what
he is: a fully aware individual in a body that has not attained full
growth. And recognizing that what applies to an adult’s behavior also
applies to the child, the Scientologist may utilize the same means to
help children that he employs to help adults.

I dont know why he imply that some would consider "the child" an enfant
terrible, or that an enfant terrible must be "forcefully molded or
broken", or why it is put in opposition to his claim (could be a
rhetorical trick). Yet again it seems that he just singled out an old
philosophy, and called it truth without any further intellectual
reasoning. Read all about it...

Anyway a child is certainly *not* an adult, as they don't have the same
conceptual understanding of rules, love, hate, sex, morality, self, etc.
I dont know if there is any pure cases where a person, through entire
childhood, have been treated as if they had an adults understanding or
being a fully aware individual. I think the outcome at best would be
unpredictable.
I read about a school in Denmark (http://www.kildeskolen-naestved.dk/).
From their description of Hubbard and his study-"technology", I think
it is safe to say that they (who started the school) are Scientologists.
The interesting thing is, that they write that the reason for the
parents to start the school, was that each had kids that had experienced
setbacks(?) in the regular school and did not want to go to school anymore.
It is obviously too little information to make conclusions on any
connection to Hubbards "miniature addult" views, but I did find it a
peculiar coincidence?
