Uncovering the Anti-Queer Sentiment in the Dianetic Perspective At present, there is a groundswell of public sensational interest in the subject of Scientology; and, in fact, in the time since I began this research paper, a nine-episode documentary series has premiered and reached finale on A&E titled “Scientology and the Aftermath”— a personal project hosted by sitcom celebrity, ex-Scientologist, and author of Troublemaker: Surviving Hollywood and Scientology, Leah Remini.1 I could not begin to enumerate the myriad exposés/memoirs of ex-Scientologists that have been published in recent years nor could I emphasize enough the rampant conspiracy theories that are at the disposal of any curious mind on what many have termed “the cult” of Scientology.

  • History of Earth
    What happened to the Church of Scientology after 1981? While reading this, THINK FOR YOURSELF! Do not just accept this without researching it yourself. The scientology technology works, but what about it inside the church? It has been a long and arduous search for the truth. It will reveal some shocking and relieving information. The information has been cross checked many times on different independent sources keeping LRH materials leading in its true form to make sure of its correct content. There are no confidential materials enclosed. Prefix Ever wondered while reading LRH materials and comparing that to present time that something is wrong? For example the sky-high prices, the push for stats, the mismatch between the real world and the stats seen on events, the bridge stop at OT8, the 2nd dynamic stop in the Sea Org, the termination of some books and texts (like ‘Dianetics Today’) Or questions like who is CST (Church of spiritual technology), that became the top of scientology in 1982, controlling RTC and everything below that? Why did LRH disappear in 1981 and Mary Sue, his wife, and 8 other top executives got thrown in jail, and why did thousands of scientologists leave the church after this? Who is the RON’S Org and the Free Zone that CST and RTC is trying so hard to hide and fight? What is going on with these implant stations on and around earth Ron talked about and who is controlling them now and do they know about us scientologists? Where is Ron now and is he still in contact with some of us here on earth? Who exactly are the SP’s Ron talked about in RJ67? Here you will find the answers! To give a complete understanding we will start out with the history and role of earth and go on from there.

Byron Department of Comparative Religion [email protected] The Church of Scientology has a notorious history of controversy. The sources of this controversy stem from both the legal realm (most notably in the acquisition of the legal label of “religion” and, therefore, tax exempt status) and the social sphere, with critics from both the Christian and secular “anti-cult” movements publishing polemics against the Church. There also, however, exists a third source of criticism: self-identified Scientologists who have chosen to leave the official institution of Scientology. These understudied groups, practicing outside of the Church, are known as Free Zone Scientologists, or alternatively as Independent Scientologists. United by a belief in the discoveries of their founder, L.

    International Journal for the Study of New Religions 10.2 (2019) 117–119 ISSN 2041-9511 (print) ISSN 2041-952X (online) https://doi.org/10.1558/ijsnr.42520 Editors’ Introduction Venetia Robertson and Fredrik Gregorius Welcome to the somewhat delayed issue 10.2 of the International Journal for the Study of New Religions. This issue is published in a peculiar time of both a pandemic that has spread across the globe and ongoing political instability in many of its corners. The challenges that have been presented in 2020 have been keenly felt by many in the academic sphere, but have also presented areas of study that scholars of new religions are perfectly positioned to inves- tigate. We intend to encourage this in a future issue, but as we are still in the center of the storm at this time such a perspective can be difficult to achieve. However, we present in this issue what this journal aims to do best—original and innovative research into the history, development, impact, ideas, and cul- ture of new religions in the world—and are very proud to offer to our readers research and review articles from both early career scholars and established members of the field. In this issue we have as the opening article “Engaging with the Church of Scientology and the Free Zone in the Field: Challenges, Barriers, and Meth- ods” by Aled Thomas. Thomas’ article takes up the challenge of studying the Free Zone, a term referring to groups that consider themselves to be practic- ing Scientology or Dianetics but act outside of the Church of Scientology.

  • Leaving New Religions
    Chapter 19 Leaving New Religions Carole M. Cusack 1 Introduction Early studies of joining and leaving new religious movements (henceforth nrms) exhibited deficiencies found in research on religious conversion in general. These include a tendency to sharply distinguish the pre- and post- conversion identity of nrm members, and to view leaving as a simple process. New religions were compared to established religions, and the vocabulary used to describe nrm members differed from that used for Buddhists or Christians. Terms like “recruit” for “convert,” and “affiliation” and “disaffiliation” for “con- version” and “apostasy” showed that nrms were regarded as social movements or “cults” not “religions” (Richardson 1993: 352–354). Disaffiliation, except in cases of alleged “brainwashing” involving deprogrammers (Melton 2004: 232–235), was rarely of interest. From the 1980s the study of joining and leav- ing nrms became more nuanced; it is evident that people leave for a range of reasons. All leavers (like all joiners) are not identical; some retain faith while abandoning membership, while others abandon both. David Bromley has posited three exit roles for leavers departing organisa- tions: Defector, Whistle-blower, and Apostate (Bromley 1998a: 145). The status of each leaver depends upon the degree of tension with broader culture that the organisation manifests. The majority of leavers do not engage in public airing of grievances, loss of faith, or dispute with religious organisations, but experience departure as an “uncontested leave-taking” (Bromley 1998a: 146). Whistle-blowers and apostates have more difficult exits; they are perceived as disloyal and may be voluble critics of their former religion. Apostates may re- ceive threats and even go into hiding.

    ORIGINAL OT 8 515 516 HUBBARD COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE Saint Hill Manor, East Grinstead, Sussex HCO BULLETIN OF 1 OCTOBER 1969 OT VIII SECRET WHY THETANS MOCK UP This question has been the most plaguing one in Dianetics and Scientology. This question has been the most plaguing one in history of Clearing. The ONLY way a thetan ever gets into trouble, the ONLY way he can get trapped or become part of a cluster is by mocking up and making pictures of bad experiences. And why record all bad experiences? This too is not good sense. One can explain it by saying that thetans become bored and have “a yearning for event or excitement” or that thetans mock up pictures as an aberrated form of “havingness.” Other ways can be invented to explain why thetans compulsively mock up bad pictures, but these do not factually lead to a total solution to the compulsion. The real reason stems from a basic characteristic of thetans and that is “a thetan never totally gives up.” There is, seemingly, a streak of resistance or resentment that makes a thetan wish to persist in the same place or location. If he cannot, he will do so covertly. The definition of “power” is “the ability to hold a position in space.” All power comes from the ability to occupy a point. In an electrical generator the base that separates two terminals must be firm or there will be no exchange of energy or power generated. The effort to weaken a thetan is to make him relinquish his point in space.
