So true, “…To believe that is not supportable, only a bad joke….”

It’s a joke I wished I’d not pursued and got suckered into. Xenu’s body-thetans on all of them!

Some of his short-to novelette fiction pre-MSMH is entertaining.

As is his false life story (upbringing, marriages and related activity), and ‘war’ experience, even more so when it is exposed.

Really, the true tales of his military career are hilarious.

Someone may write a new biography with a title something like ‘The Blowhard Buffoon Who Made a Cult then a Little Ersatz Pirate Navy’. Not a snappy title, but accurate.

I would guess that perhaps you, among other commenters here, were thrown overboard at some time.

It is such nonsense, not a point of pride.

Having two years of experience in a real navy, there was no throwing people overboard. Some bullying, sure, but never that.

It was just a confection by Fatty. As other cult leaders like Shoko Asahara and Jim Jones, he took sadistic pleasure in punishing cult members.

Many commentors here clearly believe that Fatty had pure teachings and only later was his clear vision betrayed.

To believe that is not supportable, only a bad joke.

In this case, while true that the cult has received recognitions for its television network, as there is money involved rather than accolades simply based upon merit one can only shrug and feel less than impressed.

1972 was Ron the 42nd member, of his church, who has connected himself with his higher self.
Thanks to the ne technology of Scientology!

The news outlets that run these advertisements are foolish for not demanding payment from the
ChurchofScientology-cult before publishing them.

Denny Owen,
Thanks for the link.
Hubbard’s ability to “think in futures” was dismal.
That he never considered penning himself as “CE” and “PhD” and calling himself “Doctor” as he does in the “Book Two” article of the above “ALL ABOUT RADIATION” of his, shows he really didn’t expect to be uncovered as a fraud.
I wonder if 1950s was chock full of frauds like Hubbard and he thought he’d get away with his charlatanism.

It’s so hard to read Hubbard today, he deserves no one’s time.

Dianetics (and placebo quackery of all kinds) only works psychosomatically, “by suggestion” or “positive suggestion” so it won’t work on actual physical damaged unfixable human body parts.

No one’s grown a leg yet that’s been amputated, or regrown a physically removed eyeball.

Best that can be done is “theta perception” which when the Matrix 3 movie came out, after Neo had his eyeballs fried, he was able to supposedly perceive by means of something akin to the Hubbard “theta perception.”

That’s how I as a Hubbardite used to justify the Hubbard con. It’s unjustified, it’s quackery, NEVER do the placebo-at-best Dianetics quackery, best to skip Scientology.

Run from anyone selling you Scientology, and to get yourself OFF their mailing and calling lists, be sure to repeatedly ask (stress is on REPEAT REPEAT REPEAT):

“Is is true Xenu caused the Wall of Fire?”
“Is is true Xenu dumped body-thetans onto earth and Scientologists have five steps of exorcism, OT 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7, to free those body-thetans off of their bodies?”

That will get you OFF their mailing and “call in” lists, and be sure to cut and paste the above two questions, and use them.
