There was a time when trusted Scientologists would be allowed out of
the orgs to 'confront and shatter suppression'.
This was a complete debacle. The Scientologists were completely unable
to keep their cool and ran about like small yapping dogs accusing
everyone of being Psychiatrists, Nazis, Jews or all three. Any neutral
observer would have realised there was something deeply wrong with
Scientology simply by looking at them.
The really interesting thing about Scientology is that it keeps on
failing at the things it should be good at.
For example..
Tommy Davis- Scientology spokesperson- cannot maintain his TR's and is
prone to nasty paranoid rants.
David Miscavige- supposedly an advanced spiritual being- cannot stop
hitting his own followers.
Even Tom Cruse- actor- cannot impersonate a mentally balanced human
being in public.
This would (just possibly) be understandable if Scientology valued
authentic emotion and being oneself. In fact the opposite is true.
Scientology has arduous drills prevent such outbursts- which fail in
real life.
I once asked a Scientologist why this way. Can you guess his response?
That is right. Hysterical screaming and ranting. Flunk! (Again.)
The hardest thing for a scientologist to do is to act normal...
I agree w/ all of this, except the bit about cruise (and I'm no big
fan of his work...@ all! But the jumping on the couch would have been
viewed as typical Hollywood immaturity, were he not a Scientologist.
Thus far all other supposed outbursts on his part have seemed rational
to my eyes.
Hmm, perhaps there is a TR that you don't know about.
One that requires rants and raves and screaming and yelling at the
suppressive individuals who are attacking mankind's only hope.
