Between 1981 and 1992, Pierre Ethier was Flag top auditor every single year. Pierre Ethier spent over 20 years as a staff member of the Church of Scientology studying the religious technology and helping people through religious counselling. Staff members of the Church are volunteer Ministers, who work full time on a charitable volunteer basis without a pay. After his departure from the Church in 1992, Pierre builds a very successful IT career dating back from the beginning of the internet era with the start up of the second largest ISP in the province of Quebec. Pierre Ethier holds a number of current prestigious professional certifications in the IT field. Pierre Ethier is now an applied scientology auditor who, among other rundowns, mastered the famous “Ls “Rundowns in their powerful original. He speaks fluently English, French, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish. © 2013 Pierre Ethier Selected Essays by Pierre Ethier and other Authors, Volume 1, First Edition 4 THE BAOBABS OF TOMORROW Pierre Ethier has been providing advanced Spiritual Counselling to people seeking to become more able by strictly applying what has been demonstrated to work and helps people attain self-fulfilment to lead more successful and happier lives. As people go closer to the Advanced Spiritual levels and find increased joy in life, their lives are affected for the better. Pierre Ethier writes: “Being a Class XII does not merely mean trained to audit the Ls as some misguided people who got hold of part the Ls and started auditing them might think. Being an authentic Class XII is many light years beyond that.” The partial list of PCs Pierre Ethier has audited and published by the Church of Scientology consists of roughly 3500 people. It is by no means the complete list of the over 5000 people Pierre has audited at Flag. With virtually no exception he enjoyed auditing each of those people. Pierre is going over the list and recalls the gains and life changing improvements. His ultimate desire is for each of these people to reach happiness and spiritual Freedom, whether they achieve it in the Church of Scientology or in another. A lot of those names have not been on Flag completion list for a very long time. Each and everyone should be told that © 2013 Pierre Ethier Selected Essays by Pierre Ethier and other Authors, Volume 1, First Edition 5 THE BAOBABS OF TOMORROW “NO CHURCH HOLDS A MONOPOLY ON SPIRITUAL FREEDOM OR THE STATES OF BEINGNESS PROMISED BY L. RON HUBBARD“. Anyone can move forward from whatever point they have been stopped, betrayed or given arbitrary actions that were not designed to help them. About Pierre Ethier from the people who have known him the best, up close and personally: “Pierre is charismatic, articulate, fun, and energetic. He exudes confidence and has great integrity, believes in honesty over little white lies, and compassion over cynicism. He brings passion to everything he does and to the people around him. He is naturally gifted and intelligent individual with an engaging personality.” “Pierre Ethier is professional, very busy, very successful, unique, unfinished, fabulously flawed, perfectly imperfect, outgoing and very loyal. He has genuine taste for the finer things in life. He is passionate about passion in life”. “Pierre is a versatile individual who can conform to just about any situation. He loves learning, traveling, theatre and music. Pierre is competent in many areas and able to turn with ease from one thing to another. He is open-minded and non-judgmental. He cares about people.” “Pierre has a fondness for all the natural beauty of the great outdoors and loves to explore what Mother Nature has to offer. He is an individual with a passion about his favourite museums, art galleries and traveling abroad. Pierre loves spending a tranquil afternoon at a picturesque chateau / winery and also he appreciates the art of true fine dining with the whole culinary experience in a luxurious setting in addition to some stimulating conversation. Pierre is giving back to his community as often as possible and brings social value with the results of his professional work.” “Pierre climbed his way up the technical bridge whilst at Flag, despite enormous counter intention, to become one of the most highly trained and productive auditors at Flag. When Flag became untenable under the new regime Pierre left and continued his work in the field as a FreeZone Auditor and Case Supervisor. Pierre has audited a record number of hours and cases and has cracked more cases than anyone else In the FreeZone and possibly at Flag when he was there also. Pierre continues to audit, c/s © 2013 Pierre Ethier Selected Essays by Pierre Ethier and other Authors, Volume 1, First Edition 6 THE BAOBABS OF TOMORROW and crack cases that have been stalled for years. Pierre is totally unreasonable when it comes to standard tech.

  • Scientology: CRIMINAL TIME TRACK ISSUE I by Mike Mcclaughry 1999
    Scientology: CRIMINAL TIME TRACK ISSUE I by Mike McClaughry 1999 The following is a Time Track that I put together for myself and some friends at the time, in 1999. I originally used the pseudonym “Theta” at the request of Greg Barnes until he was ready to “go public” with his defection from Scientology. I also used the pseudonym “Theta 8-8008” around this same time period. Bernd Luebeck, Ex-Guardian’s Office Intelligence and then Ron’s Org staff ran the website www.freezone.org. In 1999, just after my time track was released privately, Bernd used it on his website as-is. He later expanded on my original time track with items of interest to himself. Prior to my doing this time track, Bernd, (nor anyone else involved with Scientology on the internet), had ever thought of the idea to do things this way in relation to Scientology. Mike McClaughry BEGIN An open letter to all Scientologists: Greetings and by way of introduction, I am a Class 8, OT 8, who has been in the Church for many decades and I am in good standing with the Church. I am a lover of LRH’s technology and that is my motivation in writing you and in doing what I am now doing. It came to my attention, sometime in the not too distant past, that the current top management of the Church, particularly David Miscavige, is off source. One of the ways he is off-source is that he has made the same mistake as the old Guardian’s Office staff made, engaging in criminal activities to solve problems.

  • Church of Scientology and 128 Members V Sweden (Adm
    CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY AND 128 MEMBERS V SWEDEN (ADM. DEC. ON APPL. NR . 8282/78) SYNOPSIS OF DECISION This case derived from a verbal attack on the Church of Scientology by a university lecturer, which was reported in a newspaper. The Church submitted a penal complaint about this attack to the Chancellor ofJustice, claiming that it constituted "agitation against a minority group", but the Chancellor decided not to instigate criminal proceedings. The Church then brought a civil action for damages against the lecturer, on the basis of the alleged breaches of the criminal law. This action was dismissed on technical legal grounds. Before the European Commission of Human Rights ("the Commission"), the Church claimed that the absence of effective criminal and civil legal redress violated, in particular, the right to freedom of religion, and constituted discrimination; and that Swedish law did not accord them an effective remedy against these violations of the Convention. The Commission, in its decision on the admissibility of the case, first recalled that, in its earlier decision of X and Scientology v Sweden, it "recognised the competence of a church [in casu, the Church of Scientology] to lodge an application in its own capacity". It went on, however, to find that it is not an element of the concept of freedom of religion, as set forth in Art. 9 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), that religious bodies or their individual members should be able to bring proceedings of the kind sought by the Applicant. While the Commission held that particular creeds or confessions do not have a right to be free from criticism, they nonetheless expressly did "not exclude the possibility of criticism or 'agitation' against a church or religious group reaching such a level that it might endanger freedom of religion and where a tolerance of such behaviour by the authorities could engage State responsibility." However, such a level had not been reached in the case at hand.

Surviving with Spirituality: An Analysis of Scientology in a Neoliberal World Abstract The neoliberal system has expanded fertile ground for markets to produce and distribute spiritual commodities. This paper examines how the Church of Scientology profits by selling spiritual goods to the modern neoliberal consumer. To accumulate data, I conducted interviews and participated in various rituals at the Church of Scientology in St. Paul, Minnesota. I outline and examine the data in four sections: the initiation process of the latent member, their consumption patterns in the Church, social interactions between members, and how these interactions bridge the Church into the public arena. I conclude that the Church is a market institution that promotes neoliberal ideology. Introduction “God is dead!” Friedrich Nietzsche declared in a narrative about a madman preaching in an 18 th century marketplace (1954: 95).
