This just gets sicker and sicker, Hubbard’s quackery pseudo-therapy guilts the members into a dismal trapped mental framework.
The exorcism of Xenu’s “body-thetans” is more innocent than the Hubbard pastlives “whole Track Sec Checking” (False Purpose Rundown) quackery pseudo-therapy.
Hubbard’s mental trap world is malign.
I wish this were studied by some psychologists someday, let them look into the case folders of some deceased Scientologists to investigate how the Hubbard quackery pseudo-therapy contributed to the demise of the dead Scientologists, and warn publicly what this Hubbard quackery is doing.

Scientology Lawyers Whole Track Sec Check
1) In a previous life, did you overbill Scientology?
2) IN a previous life, did you upset David Miscavige in any way?

I wonder what Rick Moxon’s Tailor Made Sec Check’s questions look like.
Does anyone ever wonder if it may occur to DM that maybe he pushes people just a bit too far? Or is his brain so alcohol and steroid soaked that he’s too far gone?
Well, no one knows better than those of you who have been in and made the decision that enough was enough how all this works. Some will probably never leave because they sincerely believe this is a righteous cause, some because this is one big ego trip for them, and some because they have more money than they know what to do with it.
Thank you Loosing my Religion and donotkwetch,
I can’t imagine when someone begins to wake up what an emotional toll it takes. Possibly the same stages of grief. It would take time to come to terms with what a person had dedicated so much of their life to.
Peggy. Thanks. What you say is right and also profound.
In reality it is always an individual experience. For my part, when I realized that it was all a rip-off and a scam then I felt free and validated all those insights I had already had but not dared to look at.
I have never personalized it by giving myself blame for having been there. If I had, I would have kept asking my ego to carry me around again on some other mental trip. LOL.
A dear friend of mine related a story to me about one of their part time jobs. They were doing a guided tour and one of the groups was a group of Native American children (along with some of their elders). One of the places they were going was an area where they related that this tribe would come to this area when winter came because the spring there was always flowing and it was a good place to shelter. They asked if any of the children knew why this place was chosen and one young boy raised his hand and said “Because we are Strong, Brave, and True”. I think strong, brave and true applies to all those here who found their way to a safer place 🙂
Loosing my Religionsays
Peggy. Nice story. Certainly what matters is to have come out aware of what it was.
Times are changing fast and the cult will disappear precisely because of its social uselessness and its fixation on being already perfect because hubbard has already written everything.
I often repeat that when I think about it I am reminded of the Titanic sinking with all the people running away but the orchestra continues to play like it doesn’t matter. Stay well.
Dotey OTsays
I received an email from the local org “Your first step to being back on services is being in the know.”
“Get in the loop. Life as we know it has changed.”
“The event is shown daily.”
“This is a must see event for every scientologist.”
The space is limited cuz the Idle Morgues are closing their doors due to lack of interest in Sciendollatry. Wogs everywhere know Sciendollatry is a scam. Good job SP’s for stopping Scienscamology from working.
“I’m not rushed into making a decision by how limited the space is for your special event.
I think the problem is your brain limitations. Xenu did not cause the Wall of Fire, nor do humans need to exorcise off of themselves any of Xenu’s earth dump of “body-thetans” by doing the Hubbard Scientology OT levels 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.”
I don’t subscribe to the Keeping Quackery Working Scientology outfit any longer. Hail Xenu’s “body-thetans” on you!
Title: The Ontology of Suppression: Apostasy, Disconnection, and the “Suppressive Person” Type
Publication: The Mellon Mays Undergraduate Fellowship Journal 2019
Abstract: Previous research into religions, New Religious Movements, and cults detail the structural elements that lead to the social phenomenon known as apostasy, the abandonment of one’s religious beliefs. Apostasy is not simply the act of disassociating oneself from a religious organization but requires a person to completely renounce their former beliefs and actions while affiliated with the organization. Apostasy from an organization like the Church of Scientology does not come without a price. Persons who publicly renounce Scientology are deemed “Suppressive,” a speech act that within the social domain (Agha 2007) of the Church leads to the social action of disconnection (the shunning of that person by other Scientologists). This paper examines discourse data from the Church of Scientology to analyze how the Church constructs and voices (Wortham and Reyes 2015; Bucholtz and Hall 2005) the social type of the Suppressive Person. My data comes from statements intended for a general public audience outside of Scientology: the “Frequently Asked Questions” section of the Church’s official website. I argue that through the description and profile of the Suppressive Person in the FAQ section, the Church attempts to create the reality of the Suppressive Person in order to align itself with mainstream organizations and the interests of the general public. Using Bromley’s classifications of organizations, I show through a critical discourse analysis how the Church, in a vulnerable state of illegitimacy in mainstream culture, uses the discourse outlining the “Suppressive Person” as a social control mechanism to control both current members and apostates. By trying to control the apostate narrative through the ontology of the Suppressive Person, the Church shows its vulnerability to criticism and to apostates who threaten its credibility.
It’s always one step forward, two steps back with the cult. Interpreting strange feelings as if they were spiritual breakthroughs sure is expensive.
Great and succinct RB. Classic and True. And funny.
Hilarious RB. Paying for past life freeloader debt, ha ha. Stop giving Miscavige ideas!!
I went Clear last lifetime on Book One auditing. I was at Saint Hill in the ‘60s when Hubbard was there.
When you’re immersed in the cult like I was, born into it to devout parents, it just seemed logical to me at the time.
I reject these fantasies now.
Guess you were me last life … wait, this is confusing?!

I wonder what Rick Moxon’s Tailor Made Sec Check’s questions look like.
Here are the sec check ? For Moxon
Did you know Scientology harmed people but the money mattered more to you than the fact Scientology was shattering lives?
How did you justify your daughters suicide?
Do you have overts and withholds on electricity?
I look forward to every week’s “Regraded Being!!”
Love it! 💜
Does anyone ever wonder if it may occur to DM that maybe he pushes people just a bit too far? Or is his brain so alcohol and steroid soaked that he’s too far gone?
Peggy. I think both hypothesis are valid.
One step leads to another. Too late now to steer
that ship onto survival.
Well, no one knows better than those of you who have been in and made the decision that enough was enough how all this works. Some will probably never leave because they sincerely believe this is a righteous cause, some because this is one big ego trip for them, and some because they have more money than they know what to do with it.
Yes Peggy saving the world – and later on the universe – it’s a unbelievable trip for their ego. But just for the ego. The true awareness is sleeping.

I laughed until I cried.

You could answer:
“I’m not rushed into making a decision by how limited the space is for your special event.

Couldn’t he have remembered being Napoleon like everyone else?

Hilarious RB, just freakin hilarious. I see a ‘past life clear’ is now an expanded sales opportunity. How Lronic.
In theory, wouldn’t (re-)joining Sea Org obviate the need to pay it back? Would still put the brakes on bridge progress, of course.
So, for the next billion years, ALL sleaze ogres have to pay freeloader debts for their period of time at the implant station?
If dropping yr bod isn’t blowing the sea org, well, I’m superconfused 🤔
