As anyone can see, Hubbard claimed on the cover of his book
_Scientology: 8-80_ that he was a Civil Engineer and a Doctor
of Scientology. See alt.binaries.scientology for the image.

I went to buy "dianetics" in 1974 because I had gotten a flier from a
franchise holder in Paris. The flier said Hubbard was an engineer in nuclear
things...

And now, we can see all sorts of lies about him in full books published by
the Liars Main Company, scientology Bridge Publications. Like "L. Ron
Hubbard the adventurer; L. Ron Hubbard the poet; L. Ron Huybbard the
Musician; L. Ron. Hubbard the Humanist (that's certainly the worse
allegation about this crazy egocentric liar).

Scientology: 8-80

EDITORIAL NOTE 1952
L. Ron Hubbard was one of the first students of nuclear physics in the
United States.

In 1932 he believed that Life and its behavior obeyed natural laws of
the same order as electrons and other particles of motion. He began a
study and search which led him through many fields of science and across
many continents.

In 1948 he published the Original Thesis on his findings for the
medical and psychiatric professions. In 1950 he permitted a popular work
to be published and was considerably astonished that it became a best
seller quickly. Since 1950 he has worked constantly upon the original
project of discovering and conduiting the source of Life Energy and with
this work announces the attainment of that fact.

Yes, it is a fraudulent claim. Not only is it a fraudulent claim by
Hubbard, but you have just made a fraudulent claim about the picture.
The "Dean Emeritus of Science Hubbard College" is not in the picture
Warrior posted.

Nevertheless, here is how L Ron Hubbard lied:

From
http://www.factnet.org/Books/ScandalOfScientology/sos-20.html

In his biographies Hubbard conveniently omitted or altered his
educational qualifications. In his Brief Biography, he said he had
graduated from Columbian University and in Who's Who in the Southwest
(they claim he supplied the data) he said he graduated in Civil
Engineering from George Washington University. (He has sometimes used a
C.E. after his name.) Hubbard has even dedicated one of his books to
his "instructors in atomic and molecular phenomenon, mathematics and
the humanities at George Washington University and at Princeton," and
in his Brief Biography he said he "excelled in but thoroughly detested
his subjects."

Actually his grades were appallingly low. Although he did do well in
his engineering and English courses, the man who frequently calls
himself a nuclear physicist got a D in one physics course, an E in
another, and in the atomic and molecular physics courses that he most
often emphasizes (to the degree of thanking his instructors for it), he
received an F. With those grades, along with similar ones in
mathematics, it is not surprising that Hubbard was placed on probation
after his first year in college and didn't return for his second -- and
of course never received the degrees that he claims he has.

As for the Princeton School of Government that he says he attended, it
was the Princeton School of Military Government, and he went there only
three months in what was possibly a war service course.

Hubbard also claims to have a Ph.D. from Sequoia University. Sequoia
was originally called the College of Drugless Healing, and might have
been called the College of Instant Learning, since it has been traced
by the United States government to a residential dwelling in Los
Angeles which operated through a post office box and delivered mail
order doctorates without the formality of exams, or for that matter, of
classroom attendance.

In fact, Hubbard didn't even have to pay for that degree -- it was an
Honorary Degreeor his work in Dianetics. A Harvard student discovered
that Hubbard was also on the staff of the school; might Sequoia be
another name for one of Hubbard's own establishments? (Hubbard's
establishments have variously been called Hubbard College, Hubbard
International School for Children, The Apostolic Church of Theological
Scientologists, The Academy of Religious Arts and Sciences, Church of
American Science, Church of the New Faith, Scientology Consultants for
Industrial Efficiency, National Academy for American Psychology.

Nonetheless, Hubbard apparently considered this "doctorate" to be
significant because he renounced it in a public notice:

I, L. Ron Hubbard of Saint Hill Manor East Grinstead Sussex having
reviewed the damage being done in our society with nuclear physics and
psychiatry by persons calling themselves "Doctors" do hereby resign in
protest my university degree as a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.)
anticipating an early public outcry against anyone called "Doctor" and
although not in any way connected with bombs or "psychiatric treatment"
or treatment of such and interested only and always in philosophy and
the total freedom of the human spirit, I wish no association of any
kind with these persons and so do publicly declare and request my
friends and the public not to refer to me in any way with this title.

Even so, Hubbard is referred to as "doctor," has used the title
himself, and he does indeed have a D. Scn., or Doctor of Scientology .
But that even this degree is haphazardly awarded became apparent when
Hubbard's son, L. Ron Hubbard Jr., who also has a D. Scn, testified at
the United States Court of Claims that he didn't have to do anything
special to get the degree, and in fact, wasn't certain whether he got
his Bachelor of Scientology before or after he got his Doctorate of
Scientology .

Yes. Hubbard was not a Civil Engineer. I'm talking about his 1952
edition of the book. See alt.binaries.scientology for a scan of the
cover.

It's been over a month since I answered your question of what is below
the policy in my packs. You've repeatedly called me a liar and have
claimed I didn't answer your question, when in fact I answered it long
ago. Why you have continued to avoid acknowledging my answer, while
repeatedly calling me a liar is beyond me. You're like many other Scienos
I've known, in that you only see what you want to see.

Find out who you really are. :)

>I like very much to continue running...

Jogging is good exercise. But trying to have an intelligent conversation
with idiots like you is a waste of time. And I've now spent all the time I

You ARE a liar, I have saved all the threads where we discuss the subject.
It is NOT there. You don't tell us WHERE you answered that, also you REFUSE
to reiterate that respons.

Funny, so much text claiming that you did respons, instead of simply saying
what it says underneats all those references in the pack!

Yes they do, and your presence, space-for-brains, conduct and lame

than banning it.

Why Dianetics is so Hard to Read AND how Shock Therapy helped Win WWII

Want to know why Dianetics is so well known as being hard to read
and uses so many odd words ?

That's because Hubbard , who bragged about how fast he was able to
type out Dianetics... used William Sargant's pre-publication paper,
which he got while he was in the same navy hospital that William
Sargant was a clinician in...( Sargant, from UK, served a stint as a
visiting professor at a nearby university in the US) After taking a
copy of William Sargant's paper, ( which was being circulated amongst
recovering wounded for comment ) he placed it on one side of his
typewriter, he then placed a synonym book on the other side, you see
Hubbard had to replace the key words that William Sargant had used
with words out of the synonym book, to disguise the TRUE SOURCE of
Dianetics.

Which is why Hubbard demonizes Psychiatry -or- how Shock treatment
helped win WWII

So that you will NEVER NEVER read William Sargant's Battle for the
Mind, you see William Sargant was the top PSYCHIATRIST in UK,
who developed techniques and was searching for ways to treat shell
shocked british soldiers reeling from the Blitzkreig tactics of Rommel
in the northern Sahara.

In Dianetics, Hubbard demonized 'shock treatment"

Background: Pavlov did many scientific and famously well documented
studies of conditioning techniques using dogs... some dogs were
trained to SALIVATE when a very small electric current was run through
their PAWS....

One day in an early spring thaw, the ice on the river broke up, and
jammed up at a bridge, creating a flash flood of icy cold water.
It was on a weekend, and no one was at the lab and the roads were
blocked by rising water... by the time Pavlov's assistants got to the
lab, they found the dogs in a terrified state, swimming for their
lives, noses at the tops of their cages.

Because the cage doors were lower down, they had to pull the terrified
animals DOWN through the icy water, and then up again to safety..

This TRAUMA, this "shock" caused Pavlov to make his most important and
now famous discovery... he found that because of this 'shock'; the
dogs either LOST their prior conditioning or reversed it completely!

Because of the sheer quantity of walking shellshocked british solders
that were incapable of fighting due to Rommel's blitzkreig tactics,
William Sargant was searching for a means of treatment that was FASTER
than the long winded, and often ineffective ABERACTIVE
THERAPY....(dianetics) and based on Pavlov's discoveries, another
fast technique was tried that was very very workable. SHOCK
treatment. - be it shock treatment by ice-water bath, insulin shock,
or electro shock.....

or in my case...

Skydiving....

So if the British had used Aberactive Therapy ( DIANETICS) because it
took so long and didn't work well, and required so much training to
do,
many of those shell shocked soldiers would have been a very long time
getting back to the battle front in a state able to function
effectively.

So one might posit, that SHOCK Therapy helped win WWII

!!

And THAT my friends is why Dianetics is famously hard to read!

The key ideas were rewritten from the worlds biggest PSYCHIATRIST,
using a synonym book!

Is not the issue here... This post is about what Warrior says he has done,
has not done and all that. Does your respons mean that you defend him no
matter what? All you can do to help him, to help him locate where he
supplied the information he claimed he gave. There is nothing else you can
do. And if you can not supply that, then.. well.. then we know for sure what

No idea if he was actually, I don't care very much of some title someone has

Spacetraveler,

So you admit below that Hubbard claimed as you can see, on the book cover
that he was a civil engineer while the evidence proves that he was not and
held no such degree and, above you say that you do not like empty claims.

Spacetraveler, do you have even the slightest clue as to how ridiculous your
postings are to the readers of this NG? This is doing so much for the cult
of scientology.

Thanks,

Susan

Arnie Lerma is lying about where L. Ron Hubbard got Dianetics from. Ron
developed Dianetics on his own, he did not need any dishonest quack or
psych to inspire him.


Arnie mentions William Sargant as the real originator of Dianetics, but
check out what the
1977 Senate hearing found on William Sargant:


"In therapy, the British narco-analyst William Sargent recommends that
the
therapist deliberately distort the facts of the patient's
life-experience to
achieve heightened emotional response and abreaction. [27]" - page 32
(Note
they mispelled Sargant's name)


" 27. 27. Sargant, W., & Slater, E. Physical methods of treatment in
psychiatry. (3rd. ed.) Baltimore: Williams and Wilkins, 1954."


REFERENCE:
http://www.druglibrary.org/schaffer/history/e1950/mkultra/Hearing04.h...

That is not Dianetics.

Otherwise, Ron did not write the covers of books. Non-Scientologists,
people like Arnie Lerma, Roger Gonnet, the Rice brothers, Jesse Prince
and more infiltrated the SCN orgs before. What makes you think that
infiltrators did not made confusing or false claims to be later blamed
on L. Ron Hubbard?

Also, since when is Nibbs, an impostor "son", a credible source?

As anyone can see, Hubbard claimed on the cover of his book
_Scientology: 8-80_ that he was a Civil Engineer and a Doctor
of Scientology. See alt.binaries.scientology for this image.

Another one of Hubbard's many fraudulent claims can be seen
webbed at this page on Caroline Letkeman's website:
http://www.carolineletkeman.org/refund/docs/hco-info-ltr-1961-04-14-pe-handout.html
In the issue webbed at this link, Hubbard refers to himself as
"L. Ron Hubbard, C.E., Ph.D., a nuclear physicist". The issue,
HCO Information Letter of April 14, 1961 "PE Handout", was
first published in 1961. The same false credentials were being
claimed by Hubbard in _OEC Volume VI_, second US printing of
1976, on page 196. The same fraudulent claim is again repeated
in the 1991 edition of _OEC Volume VI_, on page 293.

Since the word "cabbage" is slang "money", I suppose it might
mean "Cabbage Earner". This is appropriate for Hubbard.

But then again, given Hubbard's bent for verbosity, C.E. could
also mean Chief Ear-bender.

It could also mean Canned Eightball, since "canned" means
"drunk", and "eightball" means "a maladjusted person".

I don't know really, and I dont' care about it either. I am more interested
in data. A person who could compile such a technology in my opinion is not
exaggerating if he had some of those things. Who am I to verify, it is
irrelevant.

By the way, LRH did not write this Info letter. then how could he be the

Seems he did sign the Info letter underneath, however it was misleading as
he was addressing it as him being in the second person. Must be the pamphlet
which he then did not write.

Data is a collection of facts. If certain facts are wrong, it
invalidates the conclusions one has derived from the data.

If L Ron Hubbard makes claims about himself and presents them as fact,
but these claims are not true, then it invalidates the conclusions one
has arrived at regarding L Ron Hubbard.

One would have to change one's perception of L Ron Hubbard, since we
now have a different set of data to work from. Honest people just look
at the new set of data, which now include a set of untrue claims, and
revise their perception.

After one has revised one's persception of the person who makes untrue
claims about themselves, one would naturally have to revise one's
perception of the claims that the person has made about other things.

If L Ron Hubbard could not be truthful regarding himself, then to what
degree was he truthful about the data that he presented as "fact"?

> > A person who could compile such a technology in my opinion is not

This is a remarkable "about face" on your behalf. You have consistently
told people to go and try out Scientology "tech" to verify its
effectiveness for themselves.

Does the verification process not apply to yourself? Does the
verification process not apply to facts about L Ron Hubbard?

If L Ron Hubbard is the source of your data, should you not first
verify the facts regarding your source?

If L Ron Hubbard lied then is not lying part of L Ron Hubbard's
methodology?

To what degree can you be certain that lying - as methodology - was not
used in the creation of Scientology "technology"?

Prince, Bob Dole, Elmo and a few other deluded rock-stars have referred
to themselves in the "third person".

L Ron Hubbard might have suffered similar delusions of grandeur (as in
some cases) or a child-like mind (as in the case of Elmo).

You assume that L Ron Hubbard did not write the document. Your
assumption is probably wrong. For you to prove that the document was
disemminated without L Ron Hubbard's knowledge or blessing the onus is
on you to prove that there were proxies for L Ron Hubbard that used L
Ron Hubbard's signature without L Ron Hubbard's awareness.

In this case you would also have to prove that these proxies intended
to do L Ron Hubbard harm, since they made false claims about L Ron
Hubbard.

Your avoidance falls into the category of over-used excuse that "L Ron
Hubbard did not write that" when - self evidently - the document bears
his signature. It was written when he was alive. It was written at a
stage at which he, historically, was "in control".

You will also notice that it is a scanned document i.e. it is a
graphic. The presenter of this document is being honest with you by
presenting a truthful rendering of the document.

You would find life a lot simpler if you stopped avoiding truths (or
data) that you find unpallatable.

I've asked people various times to back up that the claim was false. No one
so far forwarded any exact data about that.

Further we have a technology and we have L.Ron Hubbard. His technology I can
in fact verify by analyzing it, using it, relating the data and compare if I
chose to and so on. Whatever L. Ron Hubbard may be or not be where it comes
to credentials or what I may think about his personality is irrelevant to
that. This can even be faked, where a technology's workability can be
tested. I am a practical person, your proposal is not practical.

Compare with Clinton and that Monica girl. Does this make Clinton a bad
president all of a sudden, it's 2 separated things.

So, weird assumption based on this Info letter. Quite illogical in fact.

I said that he was probably just quoting the pamphlet that was being issued.
Further it is a fact that many issues were published carrying the signature
of LRH, without him being involved or even having seen it. Various issues
exist cancelling these and saying specifically that it was cancelled because
LRH had not even seen it.

False claims?, so far this claim being a 'false claim' I consider only to be
claim if no data or evidence accompanies it...

I have in fact both the old and new volumes wherein it was published. The
version found at the link you provided was not the full version. To some
degree thism atters as the part directly prior to that 'claim made by LRH'
was left out.

I assume this is all what you have seen of the issue? Well, and you start
immediately talking about LRH being delusional because he was writing in the
third person? How does this sound to you?

The claim (made by L Ron Hubbard, or made by people on behalf of L Ron
Hubbard) that L ron Hubbard had a Ph.D. is specifically false for the
following reason shown below (but this would require you to actually
read what is written below):

< Begin Quote >

From
http://studytech.org/study_tech2.php

In 1953, he decided to bolster his academic credentials with a degree
purchased for $20 from "Sequoia University," a notorious Californian
degree mill run by a Los Angeles chiropodist named Joseph Hough. On 27
February, Hubbard sent a cable to his agent in Los Angeles: "PLEASE
INFORM DR HOUGH PHD VERY ACCEPTABLE. PRIVATELY TO YOU. FOR GOSH SAKES
EXPEDITE. WORK HERE UTTERLY DEPENDANT ON IT. CABLE REPLY. RON." The
reply came through the following day: "PHD GRANTED. HOUGH'S AIRMAIL
LETTER OF CONFIRMATION FOLLOWS. GOOD LUCK." (Miller, 1988)

Hubbard thereby acquired wholly bogus titles as a "Doctor of Divinity"
and "Doctor of Scientology," and subsequently took to referring to
himself as "Dr" Hubbard. But this too became an embarassment when the
falsity of the degree was pointed out, prompting Hubbard to insist that
"I was a Ph.D., Sequoia's University and therefore a perfectly valid
doctor under the laws of the State of California" ("Doctor Title
Abolished," HCO Policy Letter of 14 February 1966). The latter
assertion was certainly untrue, as Sequoia was never accredited and was
eventually forced to closed by the Californian authorities. In the end,
Hubbard ostentatiously renounced the degree with an announcement in the
personal column of The Times of London in March 1966. He declared that

"having reviewed the damage being done in our society with nuclear

physics and psychiatry by persons calling themselves "Doctor" [I] do
hereby resign in protest my university degree as a Doctor of philosophy
(Ph.D.), anticipating an early public outcry against anyone called
Doctor."
(quoted in Miller, p. 335)

If he intended this to have a moral effect on the professions that he
chastised, it didn't work. The following day's Daily Mail pointed out,
somewhat churlishly, that the "degree" had never been valid in the
first place.

You're comparing apples to frogs. This called "False Analogy"
See:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_analogy

L Ron Hubbard is "source". What if the "source" lies?

Yes it does, see above.

It says quite lucidly at
http://www.whatisscientology.org/
that "The full body of knowledge that comprises the Scientology
religion is contained in more than forty million spoken and written
words on the subject-all by L. Ron Hubbard, the source and founder of
Scientology."

Again, if the "source" is a proven liar, to what degree does the "body
of knowledge that comprises the Scientology religion" contain lies?

Which is an admittance, by you, that L Ron Hubbard - the person - is
less than reliable regarding matters of truth.

Good, now if you "judge" that his "products" have been beneficial to
you, has it not occurred to you that the parts of Scientology
"technology" that you like are the parts that are the less than
truthful emanation from L Ron Hubbard?

To put it in real simple terms:
* L Ron Hubbard is the "source" of Scientology
* L Ron Hubbard is less than truthful
* Since Scientology emanates from L Ron Hubbard, there are probably
parts of Scientology that are less than truthful.

To what degree are you absolutely sure that the parts of Scientology
that you like are not the parts of Scientology that are less than
truthful?

This would be a grand opportunity for you to delineate all the
beneficial effects that Scientology has had on your life.

Can you point the readers to evidence that proves L Ron Hubbard

The claim (made by L Ron Hubbard, or made by people on behalf of L Ron

Referring to oneself in the third person is a red flag that there might
be a psychological disorder present.

For example:

"Persons with dissociative identity disorder [snip] may refer to
themselves in the first person plural (we) or in the third person (he,
she, they)."

Glad you admit Hubbard was attempting to mislead others with
his fraudulent claims as to his credentials. That he had to resort
to fabricating degrees out of whole cloth shows how desperately
he desired credibility and respectability.

>as he was addressing it as him being in the second person. Must

>Spacetraveler

He wrote HCO Info Letter of 14 April 1961 "PE Handout". Six weeks
before he wrote his 14 April 1961 Information Letter he had already
announced (in HCO PL of 2 March 1961) his intention to write four
new handouts. He then incorporated those four new handouts, along
with the existing one (HCO Info Letter of 22 February 1961), into his
HCO Info Letter of 14 April 1961.

If you bother to read his HCO Policy Letter of 2 March 1961 "Automatic
Evaluation Package for PE Foundation", you will see that Hubbard wrote
in this issue, beginning at the fourth paragraph:

"As soon as I write these handouts mentioned in 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, they will
appear as HCO Information Letters for your getting them letterpressed.
Number 7, State of Release, has already appeared in this form. (HCO
Info Letter of 22 Feb. 61)

"All sheets and plan of the Auto Evaluation itself now exist in Johannes--
burg.

"A packet should be made up also for all persons already evaluated in
the past and sent to them by mail.

"EIGHT UNIT PACKET IN ENVELOPE WITH NAME ON IT

"1. Graph, Evaluation slips.

"2. Form Letter giving IQ and future.
(3, 4, 5, 6 & 7 are letter-press sheets)

"3. What is Scientology?

"4. The Cheapest Way -- PE Co-audit.

"5. The Fastest Way -- Individual Processing.

"6. The Educational Way -- Books, Training.

"7. The State of Release.

"8. Two free tickets for a test they can give their friends.


"L. RON HUBBARD

"LRH:ph.rd
"Copyright © 1961
"by L. Ron Hubbard
"ALL RIGHTS RESERVED"

[Note: The above-referenced HCO PL 2 March 1961 appears on page
number 172 of _OEC Vol. VI_, 1976 edition. This same policy letter
appears on page no. 292 of the 1991 edition of _OEC Volume VI_.]

Now, did you pay attention to numbers 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 of that PL?

Good.

Now look at HCO Info Letter of 14 April 1961 "PE Handout". Notice
the bold headings which make up the various sections of this Info
Letter are as follows (I've included the corresponding page numbers
in the 1976 and 1991 volumes, respectively):

"WHAT IS SCIENTOLOGY" (page 196 / page 293)
"THE CHEAPEST WAY" (page 198 / page 296)
"THE FASTEST WAY" (page 198 / page 296)
"THE EDUCATIONAL WAY" (page 199 / page 297)
"THE STATE OF RELEASE" (page 199 / page 297)

Observe that HCO Information Letter of 14 April 1961 is signed and
copyrighted by L. Ron Hubbard.

Got it?

Good.

Now look again and observe numbers 3, 4, 5, 6 & 7, as announced
in his 2 March 1961 HCO Policy Letter:

"3. What is Scientology?
"4. The Cheapest Way -- PE Co-audit.
"5. The Fastest Way -- Individual Processing.
"6. The Educational Way -- Books, Training.
"7. The State of Release.

So there you have my evidence to document the fact that Hubbard
is the one who made the fraudulent claim; i.e., he not only wrote the
section titled "What is Scientology?" in his 14 April HCO Info Letter in
which he claimed he was a "C.E." and a "Ph.D.", but he had even an-
nounced his intention to do so six weeks earlier in his 2 March 1961
HCO Policy Letter.

Hubbard's fraudulent claim as to his credentials were published by
him at least as early as April 1961. The same fraudulent claim has
been repeated in publications (_OEC Volume VI_) which have been
published again in 1976 and again in 1991.

L. Ron Hubbard is a proven fraud.

A fraudulent claim by Hubbard

As anyone can see, Hubbard claimed on the cover of his book
_Scientology: 8-80_ that he was a Civil Engineer and a Doctor

of Scientology. See alt.binaries.scientology for this image.

Another one of Hubbard's many fraudulent claims can be seen
webbed at this page on Caroline Letkeman's website:
http://www.carolineletkeman.org/refund/docs/hco-info-ltr-1961-04-14-pe-handout.html
In the issue webbed at this link, Hubbard refers to himself as
"L. Ron Hubbard, C.E., Ph.D., a nuclear physicist". The issue,
HCO Information Letter of April 14, 1961 "PE Handout", was
first published in 1961. The same false credentials were being
claimed by Hubbard in _OEC Volume VI_, second US printing of
1976, on page 196. The same fraudulent claim is again repeated

in the 1991 edition of _OEC Volume VI_, on page 293.

You are manipulating, you are quite sick in your head. I think people have
started to understand that about you.

The claim can not be backed up, nor would it be relevant. The books that LRH
wrote display great knowledge about the subjects he discusses.

Briefly... not proven at all... it is entirely irrelevant. Anyway you spend
quite some time compiling all of this, I wonder why? Ego? Something was
done to you and you want revenge?

Also your presentation in the above is directed not to why the claims should
have been false.

And then you chose also not to continue the discussion about your claims
about the SP/PTS packs and it's relation to the mention of fair game.

It's too obvious you know...
