After 27 years in the lifer staff “religious order” BS label of the movement, training officer, compiler, computer guy, and 7 years on the lifer staff “prison/though reform” program for the charge of disloyalty, I summarize the whole shebang as:

a) Stress Test to lure the dupes in
b) Dianetics to give you some attention to your “case”
c) The “lower levels” are talk therapy, non peer reviewed, protected by “religious freedom” and thus won’t be peer reviewed anytime soon, especially since Hubbard’s a dead sci fi writer still not taken seriously.
d) The “upper levels” that’s the Xenu story which only explains why all earthlings, meaning us, are infested with tens of thousands of dead and mentally damaged alien souls, and Hubbard’s high volume talk therapy exorcism are us poor earthlings only chance to rid our bodies and minds of our infestations of these dead alien souls (souls that Xenu mass murdered and Xenu implanted all these souls, and us, with 36 days of mental implanting, 75 million years ago)

So, in summary, summary:

a) Lure then in with Stress Test
b) Prep them to be “cases” who need the Hubbard “spiritual therapy”
c) Give a couple years of the “lower level” personal therapy
d) Hook ‘em good, and give them the “secret” high volume exorcism, and tell them they CAN’T talk about Xenu and their surplus souls problems publicly!

And make ‘em pay through the nose.

But, today, people can do ALL of the above for free or next to nothing, just surf the internet, find the whole Hubbard layout of therapy processes, all the commands, all the therapy program lists, even the Xenu story, even the alien soul high volume exorcism procedures, ALL FOR FREE.

Thank goodness for the internet!

There is no church of scientology conspiracy but every word of this article is true.

While the beliefs of scientology are no more fantastical than many other religions the church of scientology is is a corrupt, corrupting and dangerous organisation.
