Wendy,

Yes, Scientology has a language of its own . . . I call it “Hubbardese”.

I would LOVE to get in Miscavige’s face when he is jabbering in “Hubbardese” and say THIS !

Well, thank me very much!

IWO love you 🙂

Oh, Jesus, help me, LOL! I should just retire. At this rate I may have to.

Emilio Barzini and BrunoTattaglia twinning on Objectives:

“Look at those cannolis…Thank you…Walk over to those cannolis…Thank you…Touch those cannolis…Thank you…what’s happening?” Tattaglia: “I’m fuckin’ sicka doin’ this, that’s what happening!” Barzini: “Too fuckin’ bad, I’ll repeat the auditing command…Look at those…aaaaaahhhhhhhh!…” Tattaliglia slits Barzini’s throat, Supervisor yells, “Flunk!”.

“45 years in has made Kevin unintelligible to normal people. Is that even English? I hate what Scientology has done to the language. Words have meaning!”

I agree. I was never in, so I often have to do internet searches to figure out what people are talking about in the Comments here. Not very long ago, I discovered that some lingo I picked up in “New Age” circles entered that subculture via Scientology. Some terms (e.g., “havingness”) I always considered stupid, but other ideas (e.g., “validation”) I still find useful. (Of course I still don’t know if the specific way I learned to use these words even matches how Scientologists use them. This is the trouble with jargon.)

Still, I don’t think the English language is in much danger from Scientology jargon. The words that have the greatest impact from Scientology are usages such as Xenu, clams, and disconnection. I think most never-Scientologist English speakers would still find Tom Cruise’s “Get your manners in” bizarre. I’m very glad Hubbard was so fond of coining his own terms so I can continue to use “unconscious” and “subconscious” without fear of pollution from what he did with “the reactive mind.”

RCK, By buddy, Karl, owns the Ziebart shop just down the road from them. Had we had time we could have come up with some good signs…….about Xenu and elron!

I lived in Cleveland Heights back in the 50s and it was one of the wealthiest cities in the US at that time. Also had (at that time) a Jewish temple (CH population was about 97% Jewish) with the largest dome in the US. And right next to it was Shaker Heights, another city with many millionaires. There is only one university nearby, but it’s at the bottom of the “heights” and would hardly pull students in. It’s truly a “different” part of the area.

I had this idea. To get the necessary permits and pass out necessities in high traffic areas. Unfortunately, I don’t live anywhere close to where this idea would be helpful.

I just want to show that this world doesn’t have to be scary and people are generally good.

Try to answer.
