Hubbard was born a human being on this earth, like you and I… So was Miscavige.

The chaos that we all experienced, and had to come to terms with, had it’s seeds planted long before Hubbard.

Scientology, like North Korea, is an extreme chapter in the story of human evolution.

Jeff often encouraged his readers to ‘dig deeper’… And it took me little digging to find some basic history lessons that put Hubard, Miscavige, et all into a rather cathartic perspective.

Great find by Jeff… And thanks for sharing it Mike…

Now that you have a South Korean lifestyle, don’t you miss your old North Korean lifestyle? Aren’t you nostalgic?

Maybe you need help?
Maybe you need some Adjustment Disorder Therapy. Adjusting to a South Korean lifestyle after years of North Korean lifestyle is not easy.

North Korea and Scientology are very much alike. Both are really creepy.

OMG!!

This is the most bazaar film. I mean, yeah, North Korea is strange. But watching this I see so many parallels between Scientology and especially Sea Org life. I don’t even know how to talk about it. Makes me feel creepy all over again.

Their main facebook page also demonstrates exactly how unpopular they are:

A great deal of the “admin tech” and nearly all of the Flag Orders the Sea Org operate on that LRH created are predicated in direct opposition to the “spiritual tech,” also created by him.

While the one half of his work espouses the virtues of “granting beingness” and “not being serious” and helping people to be “up-tone” the other half is unrelentingly serious, always evaluating and derogatory, and chasing the almighty buck with unholy zeal.

Frankly, the Sea Org is a nasty, viscous, and downright criminal organization. Its truly tragic that so many very good and well intentioned people get sucked into it. LRH did nobody any favors by creating it the way that he did.
