The 'Church' is working overtime to discredit and slam Andrew Morton's new Unauthorized Biography on Tom Cruise and Scientology. Everywhere I turn on the net for news about this book I see Blogs and websites (owned and operated by Scientologists) saying nothing but bad things about this book. I wonder if they have even read it?
This Blog by the "Church" says:
"The recent media feeding frenzy about the really badly written unauthorized biography on Tom Cruise has put attention on how the Church of Scientology is organized and run."

Really badly written? Why? How? Why don't they explain?
This person in the article goes as far as calling Andrew Morton a liar.

A lawyer for Tom Cruise said that the book is, "outrageous, sick stuff."
He goes on to say, "Clearly the book is actionable, but I'm not commenting on anything to do with legal issues." He said Cruise has no plans to read the book.
But why? Why don't these people read the book? Why don't they explain what is not factual about what is written in the book? If the book is just complete lies, then that is one thing, but if the book tells the truth and the only way to bash it is to use ad hominems and false logic then they are just doing more of what Scientology is known for. Scientology needs to change their policy of looking the other way of the truth and to stop speaking out against Entheta regardless of it's factual base.
The other news going around is the noise Scientology is making about a possible lawsuit against the publishers of Andrew Morton's book. How can you sue over the truth? You can't. So if you can't sue over facts, this must be just another attempt by the 'church' to scare would be critics and authors of future books on Tom and the 'Church'.
How can this "religion" ever become a real bona fide religion if it keeps on being so closed minded? People will forever look at Scientology as a dangerous cult until they wise up and change their evil ways.
Maybe I don't know what I'm talking about here but it seems to me the only way to be accepted by society as a real religion is to accept criticism and change their current ways, instead of doing more of the same.
Learn about the evils of Scientology and then educate others!This is a Scientology Blog that shows Scientology videos to find out what is Scientology. One of these critical videos is the South Park Scientology episode. There is the also the "Chef returns to South Park" and "Super Best Friends or Blainetology" episodes too. You can watch all the South Park Scientology episodes at ScienTOMogy.com. The first critical movie of Scientology to ever to be released is the Bridge movie. Watch this and then learn about the people that have died because of Scientology like Jeremy Perkins and Lisa McPherson. You can learn more about this cult by reading the real Religious Freedom Watch website. This is a site devoted to the critics of Scientology. Make sure you are careful when you ask questions about Scientology because you will become an enemy of the 'Church" and L. Ron Hubbard. They will make you an SP and you may become a target of "Fair Game". One of these questions they don't want you to ask is anything about is Xenu, who is the main belief of Scientology and who is in the story of OT3. It is important to learn about this dangerous cult and then educate others!
From Scientology 'Church' insider - "blownforgood"
THE ENTIRE BRIDGE IS BEING REVISED! THE ENTIRE THING. WHEN DAVE MISCAVIGE IS DONE, THE ENTIRE BRIDGE WILL HAVE BEEN COMPLETELY RE-DONE. EVERYTHING FROM BOOK ONE TO THE HIGHEST OT LEVELS. IT ALL WILL BE REDONE COMPLETELY. This is not an understatement.
Why? You ask. Because they are incorrect. Here are some good reasons why Dave thinks they should be redone.
GRADES – The grades are being stripped back to what they were when they were referred to as “quickie grades”. I kid you not. See someone somewhere revised the Grades in the late 80’s/early 90’s. See, you used to do a list of say 30 questions on the each grade. You would get asked these questions and somewhere along the line you would reach the EP and then you would be DONE. Next grade.
Well, if you did not reach the EP on the first 30 questions on the list, there were additional questions that could be assessed until you did reach the EP. Some people might go another 2 questions, some another 20. There were an additional 300 questions drawn up that could be assessed.
Whoever revised the Grades (probably on David Miscavige's orders) ADDED ALL 300 QUESTIONS to EACH level in order to attest. So, you would reach the EP at maybe 20 questions and then have to assess another 280 questions in order to complete. Along with shear boredom and frustration comes going to Review, no longer having F/N’s, and just weeks and weeks of useless questions that mean nothing and cause little or no reaction except for driving the person off of the Grades.
When Dave Miscavige re-releases the new streamlined Grades, I am sure he will work out a terrific spin on this on how countless hours were spent comparing LRH (L Ron Hubbard) originals to the new materials, countless numbers of pilots were done to ensure that the results were no less than perfect in every instance etc. The TRUTH IS that all DM was doing is taking off whatever arbitraries HE HIMSELF ordered added on when it was last revised.
This insane pattern will repeat itself for the rest of the entire Bridge and many new courses and releases that were completely wrong from the beginning.
Let’s list a few:
KEY TO LIFE or KTL – This course was doomed from day one. After being a Pilot Course for 20 years, it was NEVER correct. A few of the people compiling the course, had (believe it or not) had a misunderstood on the instruction LRH had laid out for putting the course together. He had mentioned having some sort of glossary or reference that a student could look up words in.
This “reference” became the ENTIRE COURSE for the most part. THIS WAS NEVER MEANT TO BE. Both SUE KOON and RAY MITHOFF were declared Suppressive Persons in 2000 for this exact screw up. The course is supposed to take 2 weeks not 2 years and it is supposed to be a few processes and a few clay table items and you are done. Instead it is the largest, longest course in all of Scientology and takes at least a year if you do it part time.
LIFE ORIENTATION COURSE or LOC – Same deal as KTL. The people compiling the course just could not figure out what LRH had intended. Anyone who has done this course will tell you that it seems weird. Whatever job or post you have, you “Hat in Life” will end up being, that is what you come up with as you hat in life. Since that whole part of the course is screwed up, the clay demo of your personal org board is just a waste of time and a primer for knowing how to clean clay out of all parts of your hands for many weeks.
L RUNDOWNS – I love to see Dave gets himself out of this one. The L rundowns are one of the, if not, THE most money making processes the church has. They are quick and they are expensive. They were also written by David Mayo. The materials that Auditors are trained to do these are still on BTB’s and are NOT WRITTEN BY LRH. Dave Mayo audited LRH on these and then wrote up what he did and left out what he thought did not work.
LRH NEVER READ WHAT DAVID MAYO WROTE. He never read anything that David wrote, he never side checked them, LRH told David Mayo to issue them and audit others on them and get them through the levels. To this day, these processes are one of the few that have gone on completely unchanged because there is an original writing that is completely intact and it is exactly as it has always been, unaltered and NOT LRH.
OT VII – This one is exactly the same as above – David Mayo wrote it. He audited LRH on this level and wrote it up. Trouble is that he did not really write up that much. This is where Dave Miscavige has come in and made the level much more than it was. He had people cull out all of the auditor skills and make drills for each of them and added this to the Level so that all auditors would at least have an area to concentrate on when doing the level. The level itself has not changed from what David Mayo wrote, it just has had an insane amount of Dave Miscavige drills added to it so that he can at least feel he tried to alter as much as possible and still not figure out a way to make it be from LRH in the end.
The list goes on and on and basically it covers ALL books, Courses, lectures, etc. As each item is modified or changed, all other materials that relate to it, cover similar ground or technology ALSO have to changed. This is why it will cover most all materials that get re-released, they all sort of refer to each other at some point.
We used to have a saying at the Int Base, “At least we have ONE STABLE DATUM that we can always count on – CHANGE!”
Until next time…
BFG
