Recently some statements were made about how "most" on this news group
disavow scientology. I believe that to be incorrect.

Here is the assessment I came up with as I perceive it. Feel free to add or
correct.

Robert

Free zone scientologist (people who probably consider the church to be out
of line and themselves to represint the true spirit of scientology):

Sarah
Robert
LR
Les
Zero (Tommy)
Ralph
Heidrun
Thom Love
Mega Squirrel?
Antony Phillips
Owen Roe
Lyn Keller
Pat Krenik
Beth Guest
Pierre
ID32
Safe

Ex- (no longer) scientologist ("Please don't refer to me as a scientologist"):

Christine: But insists on scientology basics being applied by
practitioners. Ambiguous.
Ted: Ditto
Alan: Purportedly signed an agreement with the church to not offer scientology.
Enid: Purportedly signed an agreement with the church to not offer scientology.
Homer: Possibly non-committal
Roland
Lightnin'


Never was a scientologist:

Sten-Arne: And wouldn't ever want to be. Resisting hard. :-)
CB Willis
F. Rice: May one day become one. Seems open minded.


God knows what. (I believe these are dabblers who never really got into it):

Konchok
PScott
Arnie Lerma

Not sure if even an Earthling :-):

Interesting set of perceptions. I would not have listed as you did and
there should be a list of people who have served "hard time." They have
the floor when it comes to getting my attention on any Scn. related
discussion whether they be pro or con.

Yes. Please don't refer to me as being a Scientologist. I am a BC grad
and proud of it, I have produced the products of Scn. on self and
others and I have had wins and gains on every grade chart action as
well as running and participating in groups. I was active full-time for
16 years. There was nothing wrong with my vision of Scn. and the
benefits of participation. I do not care to be involved in some other's
visions of Scientology in or out of the church and I can easily resent
what the subject has become in practice. This is where you pick up the
ambiguity as well as some occasional heat blowing your way. For myself
at this juncture I find being a Scientologist a despicable item.

>PScott


Got lots of auditing at Flag including and L or more and did most of
the BC. Hardly a dabbler if you consider the cash outlay to do the L's
and while you don't like his communications he has some valid points
worthy of attention and consideration.


>Arnie Lerma


10 years in the SO (if I am correct). You call that dabbling?


Your perceptions are rather narrow.

As for you, I perceive you as a loose canon of a Book 1 auditor gone
turbo, lone wolf. Not a group participant. No reality on the pressures
of having and running a group so your opinions in the area are nearly
worthless.

I am an Ex(panded) Scientologist.

Scientology as a subject has little to do with Hubbard, much as
physics as a subject has little to do with Gallileo Newton or
Einstein.

I agree on completely on this. I believe those with charge on the word are
simply doing a Q and A with the environment. Furthermore, I believe the
word is only a surface symbol for deeper unhandled bitterness.

Not true of Pierre and Beth. Ask them. Ralph has gone considerably beyond
scientology.

You left Brian off your *true spirit* list.

Sarah is questionable, you'll have to ask her.

The *purportedly* is an innuendo that they would offer scientology services
if they could. I doubt this is true.

Sten-Arne is waaaay more spiritual than Robert or any of the folks who roll
over in order to be "green zone" rather than speak the truth.

Lyn Keller is not a scn, never was as far as I know. (Neither was Rod Keller :)

It's not too late for any of them! It's still present time!

For the next five minutes I'm going to mock myself up as, and be, a Scientologist.
The fact that I've had no church training or processing actually assists me to be
the most fanatic true-believer Scientologist ever to set thetapod on this planet,
because I'm swallowing the whole thing as a belief system, hook, line and sinker.
Don't reply for at least five minutes, it's coming on now and I don't want you

Actually, I included that word because it's only hearsay to me at this time,
though they haven't denied it. It's hard to tell what they would do if they
were not bound by a legal document. I know some practitioners who offer the
whole bridge - both sides of it - completely legally and without harrassment.

And believe you're stuck on the last thing you ever succeeded at and can't
move on and that you are deeply invested in trapping others in that
paradigm in order to exist as a social entity at all.

So much for beliefs and worthless opinions, eh?

Actually I think Lyn did spend some time in the Orgs.

I took the comm course and the study course and had a strong intent to become clear
but they kept being so cult -like that I saw they had no interest in clearing or
delivering what they purported to, they just wanted to own bodies and souls so I
left, never to return.

I found an independent clearing practitioner who took me through Jack Horner's
Eductivism material from beginning to end and then was trained to deliver
processing in another Eductivism derivative clearing tech.

I have done one course with the Knowledgism Group and plan to do smore when I can.

Essentially I am freezone born and raised and have no interest in being associated
with the word Scientology in any way whatsoever. I maintain an interest in the Scn
tech that floats across my screen as I find it interesting to see the differences
and similarities to the tech that I have been involved with.

Chalk me up as a clearing tech oriented nonscientologist.

Acey also subscribes to these values. That I put it in scn terms wrongly

If you're referring to P/GPM Clearing, nothing could be further from the
truth. Today I happened to have 4 clients. One client today was on the ARC
S/W part of the grades. A second is getting recalls. A third and fourth
did get P/GPM Clearing, but they requested it because they'd already had the
whole bridge including NOTs completion and other OT actions. The result?
They were totally both blown away by the sessions. But of course, you'll
have to take my word for that. All done by phone of course. :-)

By the way, the third one reaffirmed today that he'd been having lucid
dreams since his session in March.

Sorry if you feel that's entrapment. I believe he and the others would beg
to differ with you.

Hello. You can take away the question mark next to my name.

I am one of the most orthodox Scientologists here. I would go back to
the org for more services if they reduced their prices to reasonable
levels (and stop trying to recruit me into Sea Org).

I've only got my feet wet, so to speak, with regard to the Freezone.
And I would not be here if it weren't for the Pilot's writings. So
maybe we need another category, "Orthodox Scientologists who are in
agreement with the Pilot."

I'm not in this group. Too narrow borders - doesn't consider
the "before", the "after" and the "beside".

SCN is one tree in a forest. Not only the forest as a whole
has to be duplicated, but maybe even more the ground in which
all these trees are rooted.

Hmmm..... where did you get the idea I was never a Scn? Although most
of what I know I learned as an Independent rather than in the Church.

I don't have any "impressive" stats from the Church but I was in and then
I dabbled for 10 years. In the S.O. long enough to know what enough
was (but a short time compared to many others). Was dumb enough
to pay off the freeloaders debt.

I wrote about this at one time, but I guess you missed it.

The only thing you need to do is read Keeping Scientology Working.
Read it about 10 times, Word clear method 6, clay demo until you fully get it
and then you will be a true Scientologist. After that the rest is a piece of cake.
Once you are in full agreement with that you can then be labelled a fanatic.
Until then, you don't qualify.

Get your facts straight. I was a scientologist for 14 days man. Heck I
did the comm-course and some auditing. That makes me an ex-scn dammit.
That was long enought to let me see that crap as crap.

One way of viewing usenet, is to pretty much see every author as a
channel (TV/Radio). If you don't like the content of a channel, you do
not listen/view that channel. To complain to the authorities, and ask
them to remove a channel, is really pretty stupid. The remote control, is
your killfilter in that situation. Use your killfilter on usenet, in the
same way as you are using your remote control with your TV.

Amazing. This really slants the truth. I didn't want to offer

I added that statement only to show that legally you may not have any choice
about not offering Scientology services, thereby making it a moot point. No
other implication was intended nor should be construed.

In reference to Alan, I find it hard to believe that you consider that

changing a few labels doesn't make it something else.

Irrelevant.

Unsubstantiated opinion.


I think ID32 makes a valid point. Does changing the label change the
substance? I know Acey once called me a squirrel. Squirrel relative to
what?

Similarly, Ted called me a loose cannon. Loose cannon relative to what?

I believe what we're dealing with here is closet scientologists - people who
are ashamed of their own backgrounds. But that's okay, "scientologist"
doesn't have to be a limiting term. It doesn't negate pursuits of areas
outside of or beyond its bounds - if such is possible, given the definition
of the term.

Thank you.

Were it not for the fact that I'm making gains unheard of in my recent
history at this time working with some very powerful processes that are
creating exactly what I want, I may be tempted to utilize UCP. I have scanned
your material and it is not the utility indicated for me.

I can imagine those for whom it might be just the thing.

Just came back from a trip to Europe and saw Amsterdam Org.

It is a big building and did not seem very busy. At night I saw a large
poster in one of the rooms with the words "Saint Hill Size" written on
it, couldn't see the rest.

Mostly this made me sad - low pay, high hours, big (but impossible)
dreams. Unless I am much mistaken I don't think they are going to boom
and it is sad they are still running the same games.

But C of S is still much much bigger than the FZ in terms of
organisations and public profile.

What a waste. Imagine if it HADN'T gone off the rails and that the
organisation was as light as - say - the Quakers are about membership
and rules etc. Could it have survived? I would hope so.


Well "What Ifs" are no good to anyone.
OK onwards..

Me?

These days I am more into Knowledgism than Scn. but have vowed when
leaving the C of S not to sign on with any one group again so would not
call myself a "Knowledgist" as such.
When I first left C of S I couldn't bear for anyone to even call me
"teacher" or "mother" for a while.

The truth is I have found Kn pretty good but part of me worries sick
about putting eggs in **any** one basket again.

I think I have a weakness for groups. I like being in them and am a good
group member. I know that being in any group means some compromises have
to be made. I am scared that in *any* group, family, school,
Knowledgism, any, I will end up making the wrong sort of compromises
just like I did in the C of S. So I am still feeling my way.

But I digress.. (again)

To be incredibly boring Robert, yet again I would rather abstain from
your list. Not out of principle but mainly because I am not sure these
days what a Scientologist really is. I am also still working my way
through ideas still about Scn.

This list has been very good for that.

Thanks,

Beth

Words don't suffice, but I'll try however I can.

In a nutshell, freedom and responsibility.

I think it's all those things that Hubbard talked about in his lectures and
books that basically said that there were no barriers for us that could not
be overcome in one way or another, and that we could reach for the highest
goals and have a hope of succeeding.

It's about total spiritual freedom, but also with the freedom and ability
to play games of our choosing. In Scientology, things aren't good or bad,
beautiful or ugly, they just are. It's left up to us to do what we will
with what we have, to make them into what we want, and to recapture our
powers to mould our universes into what we want them to be.

It's about understanding the mechanics of existence to where, if we don't
have things the way we want, we at least understand that that is all part
and parcel to existence on a games level.

It's about spiritual growth, while maintaining freedom from superstition and
other arbitraries.

It's about knowledge of the part personal ethics plays in freedom.

It's about learning and understanding of existence along all the various
dynamics.

It's about whatever one wants to make of LRH's works without the need to
accept any of it, but especially to help spark us to arrive at our own truths.

At least that's how I see it.

Robert

Enid, I know you can read intention better than that. You're evidently
allowing yourself to be influenced by a rumor monger who twists my words,
and who has a history of doing such, and accept that as truth. I thought
you were better than that.

I stand firmly by what I said, miffed at being falsely accused by someone I
would have thought would have been above that sort of thing. I don't find a
false indication by a trusted terminal to be a laughing matter.

I think this is a very good principle. No group should ever own you,
even if you benefit a lot from it, to the point of keeping you from
expanding and participating in MANY organizations that you feel
interesting and valuable.

There is this old dream of "being the higher dynamics". Any group
that keeps your from expanding across the dynamics, IMO is a
suppressive group.

There IS another side to this, which is having a focus. Mastering
one thing before dealing with a second, third or fourth one is
a key to competence and professionalism.

Life is a puzzle. You concentrate on placing one piece at a time,
but you never forget to see the big picture.

You stand firm (righteous) and feeling miffed (victim) and you are an
idiot (several times over) for even bringing the subject of the thread
up. The impulse to spew was most likely a product of your mental
masturbation in which you seem to take so much pride.

You toss out a ridiculous statement about people and then sit back and
take it as "must be fact" when someone doesn't answer up to refute your
claim.

Wake up! Snap out of it! Get a life!

Christine, have you been running UCP on this guy?

He's sounding more and more like Konchok, but without the capital letters.

My reaction is similar too - "Shaddap!"

OK, that was a good answer Robert.

Maybe it's just me but it was'nt very inspiring, I mean all the words were
there but it just did'nt seem to connect on a gut level.

Anyway thanks for taking the time to answer

Truth be told, Robert, we originally got together for the purpose of
running your GPM process and giving it a fair evaluation but when we
got down to the wire it flatly didn't indicate to either of us. So we
set forth on applying all we know of tech and policy and came up with a
very workable system for us. "Audit the pc in front of you" takes on a
new meaning when it is accomplished moment by moment and when you have
the entirety of the Scn. procedures as well as Knowledgism, Chakras,
etc., and one's own perception of the truth to work from.

drive you to the airport and pick you up on your return and I assure

What's so fascinating - and telling too - is how obsessed you are with
wanting to see change in ME. Leads one to wondering what it is you're
unwilling to confront.

I can also wear the reg and DofP hats. There are times when it would be
appropriate for you to think of me as the embodiment of your worst
nightmare. In that scene I am the Three Horsemen: Communication,
Control, and Havingness.

Your saying stupid things is something I often choose to ignore. When
you make sweeping statements based on your potshot evaluations then
there is a good chance I will jump into the fray or create one if none
exists. By now you shouldn't be surprised. Enid is capable of taking
care of herself -- but she shouldn't have to. You know damn well that
Dynamism is not Scn. and she does not care to deliver Scn. or be
positioned with it.


>Leads one to wondering what it is you're

Wonder all you damn well please but first find out who you are and then
find out who I am and then ask me in a civil manner. Then and only then
do you have any chance of satisfying your wonderment on that issue.

To which I add: Pilot said yesterday that Alan's lifeswork is just an
implementation of Scientology. I don't think he could have done more for
the Church's cause if he were trying to.

Pilot came on the net and rallied around reform. All that's needed now is
for him to sell us on that reform having occurrerd and lead us back to the
fold. Couldn't be better set up if it were a program.

Me, I'm not going. I don't like cockroaches chewing on my body, and I
don't like being thrown overboard.

LRH attempted to throw a net over everything that is perceived as
workable by labeling it "Scientology."

Pardon me, but I thought we were in the free world, and not in a Scientology
org where the execs dictate the fate of the members. Are you attempting to
apply the rules of a past time to present time events?

When I want your services, I'll be sure to pay you in advance so you'll know
when to begin. Don't expect the first payment any time soon.

I think the Church is irrelevant compared to the ideas set forth by LRH.
It's a defanged, declawed entity that once was more threatening than it now
is.

I think his heart is in the right place, but I don't see a total reform
happening - at least to where the church and the free zone are unified. I
see more a scenario where the CoS and the free zone are similar to the Roman
Catholic Church compared to the various Christian sects in the sense of
leading a peaceful but separate coexistence. In fact, I would be very leery
about all the power being in the hands of one entity again. I believe the
schism of 1982 was the best thing to happen to the scientology movement.

I'm sure that's the way it's supposed to appear. It's not. It never was.
It's vicious and it's ruthless and the end justifies any means in that
worldview.

Neither has denied it yet. From the information I'd gotten long ago it was
an legal arrangement similar to what David Mayo signed. I have no problem
whatsoever with that. I just wanted to add the mitigating factors as to
their position on scientology.

Their pursuit isn't about finding their spiritual origins, it's about
delving further into the physical universe in order to further be able to be
in control of it as bodies.

I don't see where science in general has been a big factor in man's
spiritual growth. In fact, a case could be made for quite the opposite, or
at least a dead end.

It was'nt that I liked it or disliked it, like I said it just did'nt
connect at a gut level.

I need for things to connect in more than just the words and
concepts, in other words it's not enough that it's intelectually
sound or fundamentally correct.

In fact I don't even think it is spirit in essence until it passes beyond
that threshold.

Now I'm not saying you have to be inspiring Robert, that is an unecesary burden
to put on anybody.

I just think there is more in making a cake than just mixing the ingredients
properly and following the instructions, the underlying intent is to
nourish and pleasure.

As you said it is a difficult task...but I think you did a fine job
with the words, the real difference here is in the telepathic vs the
empathic.

But it's no secret I find Scientology to over emphacise the mental aspects
of living and livingness, the recent LRH quote about considerations is
a perfect example of that slant.

I don't even care for the term viewer as it tends toward slanting things
toward the mentals aspects and excluding things that when viewed rather
than experienced fully including those sort of gut level feelings leaves
the job half done and a sort of ungrounded condition sets up.

Well, you got a lurker to come out of hiding on this one 'cause I was
just thinking about the subject.

I was doing some positive recalls the other day and remembered being
at the Toronto, Ontario org at a time when I had or felt around me
what you might call 'the spirit of scientology'. (This was a 'long'
time ago).

To me, the true spirit of Scientology is EXCITEMENT - the ADVENTURE,
LEARNING, DISCOVERY about and RECOVERY of life itself. It's learning
what makes 'people' tick and for that matter what makes the universe
tick.

It's about knowing the 'secrets of the universe' and feeling superior
about it :)

It's the relentless search for and revelation of TRUTHs and the
UNDERSTANDING that results - oh WOW man, I just had a huge cog :)( -
when they are found.

Of course another element of that spirit is echoed in the army
recruiting slogan 'Be all that you can be'.

It's about helping yourself and others to gain or recover abilities.

A real sickningly sweet analogy about Auditor/PC relationships - It's
kind of like the good feeling you get when you teach a child how to
ride a bike. It can be rough going at first, the kid screws up
repeatedly, gets scared senseless and suffers some scrapes and
bruises, but eventually comes flying past you with a look of sheer joy
and exhiliration on his face when he finally gets the hang of it. It's
hard to tell who gets more benefit from the ordeal - the kid or the
teacher.

Hardly. Has it ocurred to you that your remarks were offensive? I
think ONLY my awareness of your intention allowed me to joke rather than
nuke!

Neither do I.

Please! Try and see HOW offensive your original remark was.

I felt falsely accused by a friend, ie: you.

Thank-you, Ted. Quite right!

The most distressing thing is that Robert does not perceive how
offensive that was/is, or how much of a wrong indication it is and how
deeply that sort of blind spot can alienate one's friends.

I would say it involves making outrageous claims about your achievements
and abilities and pretending that you have invented a way for other
people to do the same.

Were you looking to be inspired into accepting scientology as a belief
system? With your background in scio, I hardly think my words should make
any difference to you one way or the other. A veteran hardly needs a sales
pitch to get him going on something he's well familiar with.

So why don't you describe to me your idea of the ideal religion as you would
make it if you were a messiah?

I'm being sincere about the question. For once I'm not being sarcastic. I
would really like to hear your ideas on how your model would differ from say
Buddhism, Scientology, Christianity, Hinduism, etc.

My original statement in context was this:
=========================================
Non Scientologists:

Christine: But insists on scientology basics being applied by
practitioners. Ambiguous.
Ted: Ditto
Alan: Purportedly signed an agreement with the church to not offer scientology.
Enid: Purportedly signed an agreement with the church to not offer scientology.
Homer: Possibly non-committal
Roland
Lightnin'
============================================

I wrote "purportedly" because I couldn't verify the information with written
data. The word "reportedly" would have been more accurate.

I wrote the rest because it would give one a legal reason for the
non-scientologist label. It was simply to show mitigating circumstances
that COULD or MIGHT (but not necessarily WOULD) influence a person's
decision as to whether to refer to himself a scientologist or not. So, I
included that information to put the list in perspective, especially since
Christine repeatedly asserted that you and Alan rejected the label
"scientologist".

To put it simply, my point was basically "well, they don't have any choice
about it, so your examples are not a fair assessment of the situation". Any
perceived offensiveness was totally unintentional.

Hope that clarifies things somewhat.

Robert

Dear Robert:

Gee!

Do you think only people who have run UCP can SEE that you are a
stupidified out-of-valence rondroid clingly so tightly to his service facs
he can barely shout "ASSHOLE!"?

NEWS FLASH!:
Even WOGS can see that!

Insults, like beauty and everythin else, are in the eyes of the beholder.
One can take a very obvious insult and answer it with literalness, levity,
sincerity or whatever else - not that I think Robert's question was intended
in the way you said. "IF I were a messiah, what would my ideal religion be?"
Hmmm. Could be a very self-enlightening question.

RELIGION???? Bah Humbug. In my opinion, LRH made a major mistake in
letting a workable philosophy become a Religion because then it became a
Church and then a cult and so on down the dwindling spiral which he had
written earlier. Oh well, it just proves that even a man made God makes
mistakes. I could say much more but this will suffice for the nonce. Ray
