The Church of Scientology is trying to contend with the greatest scandal its ever seen--the impending divorce of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.
Media sites are reporting that Holmes is leaving Cruise because he planned to indoctrinate their young daughter, Suri, and send her to a camp for young Scientologists. The church sent out an email instructing members on how to "stand up for their religion" and instruct sites like Microsoft and Google to take down anti-Scientology content.
Marty Rathbun, a former Scientologist who now blogs against the religion, posted the email.
It's from the Office of Special Affairs, which Rathbun describes as the "propaganda arm" of the church.

According to the founder of Scientology L. Ron Hubbard, XENU was the dictator of the “Galactic Confederacy” who, 75 million years ago, brought billions of his people to Earth in a DC-8-like spacecraft, stacked them around volcanoes and killed them using hydrogen bombs. Official Scientology scriptures hold that the essences of these many people remained, and that they form around people in modern times, causing them spiritual harm.
These events are known within Scientology as “Incident II”, and the traumatic memories associated with them as The Wall of Fire or the R6 implant. The narrative of Xenu is part of Scientologist teachings about extraterrestrial civilizations and alien interventions in earthly events, collectively described as space opera by Hubbard. Hubbard detailed the story in Operating Thetan level III (OT III) in 1967, warning that the R6 “implant” (past trauma) was “calculated to kill (by pneumonia, etc.) anyone who attempts to solve it”.
Within the Church of Scientology, the Xenu story is part of the church’s secret “Advanced Technology”, considered a sacred and esoteric teaching,[11] which is normally only revealed to members who have contributed large amounts of money.
The church avoids mention of Xenu in public statements and has gone to considerable effort to maintain the story’s confidentiality, including legal action on the grounds of copyright and trade secrecy.
Officials of the Church of Scientology widely deny or try to hide the Xenu story.
Despite this, much material on Xenu has leaked to the public via court documents, copies of Hubbard’s notes, and the Internet.
In commentary on the impact of the Xenu text, academic scholars have discussed and analyzed the writings by Hubbard and their place within Scientology within the contexts of science fiction, UFO religions, gnosticism and tribal creation myths.
That letter was awful!
But then again - it gave some good tips to Freepers if we don’t like a story on MSN or Google we can report, remove, rinse and repeat! lol
That's what I've always wondered, it is babble and no logic is found. I remember hearing Ron Hubbard in the 60s on radio, so I listened 2-3 times, he never made sense. Yep, it is strickly fiction and poor fiction at that.
Hubbard had to have taken some heavy drugs like handfuls of LSD to have come up with this idea.
Wow! The grammatical and spelling errors in that email are quite “telling”. I would suspect that Daniel has a plethora of negative engrams in his mind that are hurting his “Dynamics” more than any Internet posting. He should hold onto his tin cans a wee bit more tightly and clear them out as soon as he possibly can.
Doubt no that about.
It's not so much brainwashing, but the fact that you don't get OUT of the Rehabilitation Project Force UNLESS you write a sufficiently glowing "I love Big Brother" success-story, wherein you are thankful for the RPF getting your head right.

one person claims there are issues with Suri that Katie wanted to address.
Perhaps she saw the warning signs of what was to come after Jett travolta.
I remember reading one story of a Scientologist who needed meds and his father wouldn’t let him have them . He went to visit his father and the boy killed himself. The mother tried to sue but I think they held Scientology not responsible.
Because he established a religion that allows them to do anything that does not upset their conscience.
Now with the already loose conscience of Hollyweird, that is all the excuse they need to join.
If Katie wants a normal relationship with her daughter she has to keep Tom away.

Tom is going to have to agree or the dirt is going to come out.
I never thought I would ever say this but I admire Katie Holmes. It takes incredible strength to pull off what she is doing. I hope she can see it through.
I will say this though. She supposedly told Tom she wanted to get this apartment because of the underground garage. There is no reason for her to be walking Suri out into that madness out the front door. It is a constant barrage of flashes and people yelling.
It all started as a bar bet between Robert Heinlein and L Ron Hubbard. Given his writings my guess is that Heinlein bet that the religion would take off. And it either got away from Hubbard, or he just went along for the ride, getting wildly richer than he could ever have hoped as a writer.

A little of the incoherency is due to Scientology lingo. For example “hatting” is their scientolospeak for “training”, “write the matter to Ethics” means to rat out fellow scientologists for “ethics violations”.
Marty Rathbun is quite a bit more than a "former Scientologist". From his own blog:
I was Tom Cruise’s auditor (Scientology counselor) between 1996 and 2004. I was his liaison to Chairman of Scientology David Miscavige during those same years. I advised on all aspects of Cruise’s 2001 divorce with Nicole Kidman. I set up the initial Scientology indoctrination of Conner (then age 6) and Bela (then age 9), and supervised it subsequently. I was also the senior church official over Scientology Inc’s Office of Special Affairs (the dirty tricks and propaganda arm of Scientology Inc) from its inception in 1982 through 2004.He knows so much about Scientology's intelligence and "dirty tricks" organization because he's the one who set it up and ran it.
Well, that right there makes them a bunch of mad hatters...

One of the best South Park episodes, beating on Scientology.
