"The lure of the pseudoscientific vocabulary and promises of dianetics cannot but condemn thousands who are beginning to emerge from scientific illiteracy to a continuation of their susceptibility to word-magic and semantic hash."Kind of funny, she got involved in 1998, me in 1987 thanks to the Dianetics ads on TV saying Dianetics was a science of the mind, whereas she was religious. Only 10 years difference.
I was not religious in 1987 nor a seeker of religion, what appealed to me was the science. She was appealed to the religion because she was a seeker of religion.
That fucker Hubbard managed to appeal to science, logic, philosophy and religion to persuade. He covered all the bases.
Scientology is a applied religious philosophy. Scientology is science study of.
That fucker duped us. No doubt about it.
As an 80s kid, to me Scientology was always a "spiritual practice" aka religion. The science part was being toned down in the 90s, I think partially because of the "practicing psychotherapy without a license" threats.Kind of funny, she got involved in 1998, me in 1987 thanks to the Dianetics ads on TV saying Dianetics was a science of the mind, whereas she was religious.

yep, I used to promote that to my friends to try to get them involved. I said getting auditing was like getting high but no drugs. I said once you have a cognition about something, you feel on top of the world. You have that "oh ha" moment, and it seems so clear, like I get it."Get high without drugs" got some baby boomer hippy types in the door in the 1970s. Getting a floating needle was probably some kind of endorphin release so maybe it wasn't a total lie.
Yep, things did in fact change and not just during the transition from the Hubbardian era to the Davidic era.there you go.
I'm a 1960's kid who got involved in 1987. All those scales and words of wisdom were supposed to be logical and/or scientific.
That's exactly what it was."Get high without drugs" got some baby boomer hippy types in the door in the 1970s. Getting a floating needle was probably some kind of endorphin release so maybe it wasn't a total lie.
Nah - The floating needle is caused by sweaty hands. Scientific fact. No Twelve Step recovery program necessary.That's exactly what it was.
We were Scientology junkies.
Scientology "eras" - hmm. Scientology has gone through several changes, evolutions, phases in its brief seventy year history. Maybe someone will write a History of Scientology book, maybe not.Yep, things did in fact change and not just during the transition from the Hubbardian era to the Davidic era.
My own terms entirely. As far as I know nobody else uses it, but I find them to be useful terms. We might as well call them the megalomanic era and the extortionist era. Or the narcissistic phase and antisocial phase.Scientology "eras" - hmm. Scientology has gone through several changes, evolutions, phases in its brief seventy year history. Maybe someone will write a History of Scientology book, maybe not.
you could probably say that about any religion (or so called religion).That's exactly what it was.

actually somebody has written a history of dianetics, it can be found here:Scientology "eras" - hmm. Scientology has gone through several changes, evolutions, phases in its brief seventy year history. Maybe someone will write a History of Scientology book, maybe not.
The book could be made into a screenplay with a docuseries like they did with the Rajneesh Movement. Hubbard at sea with his own goddam navy is just as interesting as Rajneesh with his 92 Rolls Royce cars.
