Das System Scientology 2010 Bayerisches Staatsministerium des Innern Das System Scientology Fragen und Antworten Vorwort Was ist die Scientology-Organisation (SO)? Warum befassen sich staatliche Stellen überhaupt mit ihr? Was macht sie so gefährlich – für den Einzelnen, aber auch für die Gesellschaft? Diese und andere Fragen will die Broschüre beantworten. Denn Aufklärung über die Organisation ist das wirksamste Mittel, um ihre Ziele und Mechanismen offen zu legen und ihr den Nimbus einer vermeintlich um uneigennützige Lebenshilfe bemühten, selbst­ losen Gemeinschaft zu nehmen. Erkennt man erst einmal das System Scientology mit sei­ nen menschenverachtenden Zügen, wird die Organisation auf das reduziert, was sie tat­ sächlich ist: ein internationaler Wirtschaftskonzern, der nach Gewinnmaximierung strebt, der aber auch ein weltweites totalitäres Herrschaftssystem nach eigenen Vorstellungen errichten will. Das System Scientology lebt von der lückenlosen Kontrolle des Einzelnen, der im System funktionieren muss. Menschenrechte sind diesem Denken fremd. Sicher ist: Bei der Auseinandersetzung des Staates mit der SO geht es nicht um religiöse oder weltanschauliche Fragen. Was der Einzelne glaubt, geht staatliche Stellen grund­ sätzlich nichts an. Verfolgt aber eine Organisation verfassungsfeindliche Ziele, gilt es hierüber aufzuklären und dem entgegen zu wirken. Der Staat darf nicht zusehen, wenn eine Organisation Menschen wirtschaftlich ruiniert, geistig abhängig macht, Familien zerstört und versucht, Wirtschaftsunternehmen, Behörden und die Gesellschaft zu will­ fährigen Instrumenten ihrer Welteroberungspläne zu machen. Seit Mitte der 1990er Jahre steht die Organisation verstärkt im Blickfeld der Behörden. Bayern hat früh einen ressortübergreifenden Maßnahmenkatalog erarbeitet, um den Aktivitäten der SO zu begegnen. Die Maßnahmen richten sich dabei gegen das System Scientology, aber nicht gegen den einzelnen Scientologen, der oft nicht Täter, sondern selbst Opfer der totalitären Organisation ist. Für sie wurden spezielle Beratungseinrich­ tungen geschaffen. 2 Die SO hat die selbst gesetzten Ziele bislang nicht erreicht, was sich auch am Rückgang der Mitgliederzahlen bemerkbar macht. Insbesondere durch staatliche Aufklärung und eine breite Darstellung in den Medien wurde die Organisation im Laufe der Jahre immer transparenter. Hierzu hat vor allem das Internet beigetragen. Es gibt nichts „geheimnis­ volles“ mehr hinter der Organisation, was sich teuer verkaufen ließe. Die SO ist „ent­ zaubert“. Allerdings hat sich ihre Ideologie nicht geändert, so dass sie nach wie vor insbesondere für den Einzelnen, der in ihre Fänge gerät, höchst gefährlich ist. Mit Fragen und Antworten will diese Broschüre die Funktionsweise des Systems Sciento­ logy in Grundzügen erklären. Von Los Angeles/USA aus gesteuert arbeitet die SO überall in der Welt übereinstimmend nach den Methoden ihres Gründers L. Ron Hubbard. Bei der Auseinandersetzung mit der SO darf man sich nicht von Science­Fiction­Geschichten täuschen lassen und ihre Anhänger als „Sektierer“ verharmlosen. Wer das System ver­ standen hat, kann die Gefahren richtig einschätzen und wird nicht mehr leichtgläubiges Opfer. Diese Broschüre berücksichtigt auch die Ergebnisse der im Auftrag der Bayerischen Staatsregierung von Prof. Dr. Heinrich Küfner vom Institut für Therapieforschung (IFT), Prof. Dr. Norbert Nedopil von der Psychiatrischen Klinik der Ludwig­Maximilians­Uni­ versität München (LMU) und Prof. Dr. Heinz Schöch vom Institut für die gesamten Straf­ rechtswissenschaften der LMU München erstellten wissenschaftlichen Expertise „Aus­ wirkungen und Risiken unkonventioneller Psycho­ und Sozialtechniken“ (Expertise), die Ende 2002 im Pabst­Verlag unter dem Titel „Gesundheitliche und rechtliche Risiken bei Scientology“ (Scientology–Gutachten), ISBN 3–936142–40–8, herausgegeben und ver­ öffentlicht worden ist. Die Neubearbeitung dieser Broschüre beruht auf der 6. Auflage der Vorausgabe aus dem Jahr 2004. Sie ist konzeptionell und inhaltlich fortentwickelt und berücksichtigt auch neuere Erkenntnisse und Entwicklungen. Das System Scientology 3 Inhalt I.

Scientology ist ein Kunstwort, gebildet aus „scire“ (lateinisch für „wissen“) und „logie“ (auf das griechische „logos“ zurückge­ hend: „Lehre von“). Gemeint ist eine „Lehre vom Wissen“. Die­ ses Kunstwort hat der US­amerikanische Science­Fiction­Autor L. Ron ­Hubbard als Bezeichnung für seine von ihm entwickelte technische Lehre zur Veränderung des Menschen verwendet. 2. Wer war L. Ron Hubbard? Um Lafayette Ronald Hubbard (1911–1986) haben seine Anhän­ ger ein Netz von Legenden gesponnen. Hubbard war in den 1940er Jahren als Autor von Science­Fiction­Romanen tätig. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg diente er der Familientradition folgend in der US­Marine. In Zusammenhang mit seinem Kriegseinsatz kam er in psycho therapeutische Behandlung. Dort lernte er die Psycho­ analyse Sigmund Freuds und dessen Therapie­Verfahren kennen. Aus Teilen dieser Lehre und anderen psychologischen Konzepten entwickelte Hubbard seine Lehre und sein Verfahren zur Manipu­ lation der menschlichen Psyche, die er in seinem 1950 veröffent­ lichten Buch „Dianetik – Die moderne Wissenschaft der geistigen Gesundheit“ vorstellte. Die SO selbst leitet den Begriff Dianetik von „dia“ (griechisch für „durch“) und „nous“ (griechisch für „Seele“) ab. 1983 wurde Hubbard zum letzten Mal in der Öffentlichkeit gesehen, 1986 starb er. 6 Das System Scientology | Fragen und Antworten 3. Dianetik – wie fing alles an? Nachdem Hubbard 1950 sein Dianetik­Buch veröffentlicht hatte, in dem er seine Technologie zur „Heilung psychosomatischer Krank­ heiten und geistiger Störungen“ darstellte, wurden in den folgen­ den Jahren in den USA Dianetik-Zentren eingerichtet. Hubbards „Heilverfahren“ liegt seine Anschauung zugrunde, dass das menschliche Gehirn ein Computer sei. Die menschliche Psyche ist für ihn durch „elektronische Schaltkreise“ im Gehirn bestimmt. Sein dianetisches Verfahren versteht er als technische Prozedur zur „Reparatur“ fehlerhafter Gehirnschaltungen, es unter scheidet sich daher laut Hubbard gänzlich von herkömmlichen psycho­ therapeutischen Verfahren. Hubbard nannte seine neue vermeint­ lich „wissenschaftliche“ Disziplin eine Ingenieur-Wissenschaft. Das System Scientology | Fragen und Antworten 7 Mitte der 1950er Jahre erfand Hubbard ein „Ich“, das sich mit Hilfe von ihm entwickelter scientologischer Übungen vom Körper tren­ nen könne. Hubbard behauptete von nun an, der Mensch sei ein „Geistwesen“, ein Thetan. Sein bishe riges Kursprogramm Dianetik behielt er bei. Er nannte die dianetischen und die sich anschließen­ den scientologischen Übungen Brücke zur völligen Freiheit und gab seiner Bewegung den Namen Scientology. Die 1952 gegründete Hubbard Association of Scientologists International (HASI) erhob allerdings bezeichnenderweise noch nicht den Anspruch, eine Reli­ gionsgemeinschaft zu sein. Als Hubbard jedoch wirtschaftliche und steuerl iche Vorteile einer Umwandlung seiner Organisation in eine Kirche erkannte, gründete er 1954 die erste Scientology Kirche in Los Angeles/USA. Scientology-Symbol Hubbard standardisierte seine Prozesse und Trainings im Lauf der Zeit immer weiter und entwickelte hierfür eine Vielzahl präziser Verhaltensvorschriften, deren Einhaltung er unter immer schärfe­ re Kontrollen stellte. Daneben entwickelte er für den Geschäfts­ betrieb von Scientology eine bis ins Letzte ausgefeilte Organisa­ tions­ und Management­Technologie. Die Kunden seiner Dienst­ leistungen beschrieb er darin als von der Produktionsmaschine Scientology herzustellende Produkte. 4. Wer führt die SO heute? Nach dem Tod Hubbards übernahm David Miscavige die Führung der Organisation. Er steht dem Religious Technology Center (RTC), der Befehlszentrale der SO in Los Angeles/USA, vor. Das RTC ist Inhaber der Markenzeichen, die von der SO weltweit verkauft wer­ den. Die oberste Autorität dieses als Kirche getarnten Wirtschafts­ konzerns ist somit ein Wirtschaftsmanager. Nach Hubbards Tod war es in der neuen

  • 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.

  • Scientology - a Masked Branch of Masonic Judaism
    Scientology - A Masked Branch of Masonic Judaism Most Scientologists believe that Scientology is a route to full recovery of native abilities such as exteriorization with full perception, telepathy, ability to create MEST, Cause, etc. Most of them, being very bright, had already correctly rejected the various Bibles as not being the truth and not presenting any valuable wisdom, with endless pages of who begat who. Scientology, on the other hand, did present some factual and useful information such as the truth that you are a Being and what some of your capabilities are. The other religions said the highest level of spiritual attainment was for you to realize you are an inferior Being who was nothing more than a creation of God, and your role in existence was to worship and serve God, your creator. In other words, you are a Creation, not a Creator. Thus, at long-last, a religion finally appeared to offer some hope for what Beings sought. The spiritual drought and stagnation offered by the other religions appeared to be over. Scientology was different! Or so it seemed… No one in Scientology has attained these higher states described in Scientology materials, and no one in Scientology ever will. The reason for that will become abundantly clear herein. Those who reach the end of the Scientology bridge are in for a rude awakening. They were subjected to a bait and switch. Bait and switch is a marketing technique used by unscrupulous salesmen. They advertise a decent car at a low price, but when the customer comes in they tell him that car was sold.

  • Language Appropriation in New Religious Movements: Identity, Conflict, Boundaries, and Pejorative Terms
    Language Appropriation in New Religious Movements: Identity, Conflict, Boundaries, and Pejorative Terms by Kristian Klippenstein A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Religious Studies University of Alberta © Kristian Klippenstein, 2020 ii Abstract As a broad classificatory category, new religious movements (NRMs) refers to groups as varied as they are unorthodox. As diverse emergent agents of restoration or change, the social transformations that their doctrines promote and behaviors achieve vary in both articulation and form. To cope with this diversity, one strand of popular and academic inquiry into NRMs stretching from 1960s anti-cult literature to the present utilizes a hermeneutic of meaninglessness. This widely deployable approach to reading new religious texts argues that NRM leaders (mis)use words in their efforts to befuddle and seduce potential converts – recruitment, rather than coherence, guides vocabulary choice in new religious doctrines. Promoters of this hermeneutic point to seemingly catachrestic deployments of familiar terms as evidence of NRMs as organizations that abuse and misuse language. While a widely applicable tool for examining new religious texts is valuable, the hermeneutic of meaninglessness fails both in its understanding of language and its depiction of NRMs as careless, incoherent language users. This thesis combines recent re-appraisals of religious studies theory with close readings of texts produced by Scientology, Peoples Temple, the Children of God, and the Jesus People to reject the hermeneutic of meaninglessness while providing an alternate analytical framework for approaching new religious texts. In particular, it identifies moments of pejorative language appropriation and adaptation in new religious texts as sites of identity and worldview construction, contestation and conflict with cultural interlocutors, and boundary maintenance.

  • 3. CRISIS and TRANSITION Sources of the Crisis the Developments That
    3. CRISIS AND TRANSITION Sources of the crisis The developments that took place in the ideology and organization of Hubbard's following emerged partly as the resolution of a variety of strains and conflicts in the Dianetics community, which existed between Hubbard and other leaders; between Hubbard's desire for a strong central organization and the amateur groups keen to retain their independence; and between Hubbard and other innovators of theory and practice. They were also, in some measure, a response to external vicissitudes: a hostile environment, and a declining market. The break between Hubbard and Purcell was the culmination of a series of strains in their relationship and even earlier difficulties with other coleaders of the movement. Ninter, for example, had broken with Hubbard over a number of issues, of which the financial precariousness of the Elizabeth Foundation was only one. Firstly, Winter found a difference between the ideals inherent within the dianetic hypothesis and the actions of the Foundation in its ostensible efforts to carry out these ideals. The ideals of dianetics, ar I saw them, included non-authoritarianism and a flexibility of approach; they did not exclude the realization that this hypothesis might not be absolutely perfect. The ideals of dianetics continued to be given lip-service, but I could see a definite disparity between ideals and actualities.' He had growing doubts about the possibility of achieving the state of 'clear', and was concerned at the extent to which the effects of Dianetic therapy were simply the results of suggestion. He felt that the effect of the techniques might not always be beneficial to the pre-clear, and that it might sometimes be positively dangerous in the hands of poorly trained auditors without adequate medical knowledge.

  • According to L. Ron Hubbard
    Anthropology: Earth and The Universe Time Track - according to L. Ron Hubbard By Mike and Virginia McClaughry This is an organization of various references arranged in time order, as to an alleged “factual history as beings” according to L. Ron Hubbard of the Church of Scientology. We first put this together in 2007/2008. Many of these references totally contradict each other. The term time track, is borrowed from L. Ron Hubbard: …It is a time track. It is the continuous record of time of the individual since the first moment he began to experience, straight on through till now; an uninterrupted 3D, fifty- two perception movie. And things happen to that movie, and it gets grouped and becomes unavailable to the pc. Becomes unavailable to the pe for various reasons: his inability to confront and the fact that the track itself can get grouped. Like you took a can of motion-picture film and it's all stretched out there, and so you just start taking it and crumpling it up in your hand in big wads, and so forth. And various things can happen to this consecutive record of experience. Various things happen to it. And all that auditing ever does is straighten it out and make it available and as-is it. Now I think that gives you a simplification of outlook. THE TIME TRACK A lecture given on 16 May 1963 Mr. Hubbard primarily uses “Implants” as his basis for dating things in his fictional account of history. An “implant”, is a supposedly a point in time where an invisible, all-powerful, unkillable, and eternal being suddenly, by some sort of inexplicable mystical event, loses all his power and becomes the “victim” of the evil MEST beings who attack him with energy, particles and what have you – while installing “command” which he then has to follow from there on out.
