An Anonymous Email
I’m sharing with you an email I received last week via YouTube. First a clarification: My primary concern so far has been making the evidential information freely available that Scientology has been trying to hide or dismiss, so that people who know little about the organization or are curious about it can make up their own mind or at least conduct their own research before the lies and propaganda of Scientology get to them first. There are two types of Scientologists we are talking about. The first one consists of the likes of the late L. Ron Hubbard and David Miscavige, top leaders whose sole purpose and intention is monetary gain, political power, and the destruction of anyone who stands in the way, i.e. enemies of the church. There are, however, decent Scientologists that were simply tricked and brainwashed into it and have not the slightest idea of what is really going on. They don’t know anything about the Fair Game policy; they think Operation Freakout or Operation Snow White are just some Cyber legend made up by “terrorists against the church”; Disconnect is thrust upon them whereas they are led to believe that it is for their own good. How does this happen? Because the Scientology corporation has either been carefully restricting their access to such information or brainwashing them so thoroughly that members only believe what their “religion” says. What these innocent people choose to believe and practice is none of my business, although I do hope that they have equal access to the legal and journalistic documentations as well as personal and judicial testimonies against Scientology that we take for granted; it’s the top level officials and the organization’s militias who set up front groups raving about religious freedom and human rights but in fact are practicing everything they publicly denounce and condemn that I’m speaking out against. Scientology itself is not a religion; I am even reluctant to call it a cult these days. Scientology is a commercial enterprise and a political organization that preys on innocent people on the one hand, and networks individuals with nefarious purposes in the fields of mass media, politics and the entertainment industry on the other; a “church” that hides behind the shield of religion, who will not turn the other geek and will do anything to silence or even destroy critics.
I wish people would ask more questions about Shawn Lonsdale.
But I regress. The email makes several interesting points and suggests some very good ideas. So feel free to pass it on to anyone willing to take a stand against the Scientology corporation. keep reading… »
