SCIENTOLOGY NEWS Just got the latest Scientology News. They claim all stats are way up, numbers can be lied about though. However they are expanding like wildfire by installing new orgs all over the world and US, and upgrading the the ones that are there. Money has to be coming in from someplace to pay for all that. And even if, worst case, the application of tech was terrible across all those orgs, at least the name of Scientology and LRH and his written/taped works is out there, even if for a price. And that makes me feel good seeing a Church on every corner, in every city or town. I don't think this Church is going away soon, and with all the money that is pouring into it, the Church probably deserves watching. I also been watching a lot of video's on you tube about Scientology and Anonymoose, and just as the Church can dead agent by fabricating lies out of whole cloth, so can the critic field. Simply ignoring the brilliance of the underlying axioms and grades is bad enough, but as LRH said, it was inconceivable that anyone could lie that much at a time. Personally I think the works of LRH speak for themselves, if you follow the whole track of them. Any error inserted into the tech might have been evaluating on what to run after or during the clearing course and above along with missing some who were already clear or OT. And of course leaving out NO and SOME during assessments :) Oh yeah and missing insanity = AND. He said that the exact point a person goes insane is the point he becomes totally devoted to stopping something. I would correct that to a person becomes insane the moment he becomes totally devoted to stopping AND starting the same thing at the same time. Along with "to live forever and to die forever," and "to be and to not be," AND's run like wildfire without a meter. Beyond that, LRH was a true master, for the times, at how to run things, he didn't do so well in the what to run department, in my opinion. Thus he gave us the Clam, and the clam is there to be run for those that are able, but LRH admits it was an implant, and science tells us the clam is not on the human genetic track, although that fact is not really relevant, as who knows what the human GE has been up to. Things are more complex than the snot nosed mortalityism of modern science can image. It is interesting that Hubbard's brand of LaMarkianism, where traits are passed on independent of the genetic line, is pretty much ignored by the critics. The example he gave was of the jelly fish killed life after life by being slammed against the hard rocks. The jelly then used the death engram facsimiles to build a hard back to become the crab and other similar animals. Standard genetic darwinianism could also 'explain' this kind of thing. His grasp on science was sometimes embarrassing, thus he gave us steady state theories of suns last forever, he also gave us OT III in volcanoes that don't exist and apparently according to science never did. The issue of terraforming however is handily left out by the nose crowd. The auditor is supposed to know the general, but by pretending to know the specific incidents of the preclear, the whole subject goes to hell. Its almost like LRH felt guilty for something he did to the preclear, so session goes like: "Hey you remember the time I did you in with that 36 day implant, you ain't been quite right since then, and I haven't slept well in 76 million years, can we PLEASE run it, so you can get over it, and I can finish my amends and fix and repair job and be able to sleep with a clear conscience again?" Thus many became left in the sticky dark alone indeed.
