"The Fable"
Scientology has a 40 year history of RUTHLESSLY attacking critics or
former members who publicly exercise their rights of free speech or
religious freedom in discussing their negative experiences or opinions
concerning this "religion." Scientology tries to crush critics because it
foolishly believes that by killing the messenger it can kill the life and
power that the message holds.
Because of this history of repression, the following mythological fable
should, among other things, be considered as a theoretical discussion of
religious and non-religious opinions. As such, this fable is also intended
to foster the discovery of social or moral lessons and to stimulate
additional dialog about the growing public controversy surrounding the
true nature and actions of the "religion" of Scientology.
No claim is made by the anonymous author(s) that any statement in this
fable or its accompanying appendices is factual. To help the reader
evaluate the relevance of this fable in the proper skeptical state of
mind, treat this document as purely fictional and layered full of
allegory, metaphor and symbolism, waiting for each reader to decrypt and
interpret its meaning each in their own way. Also treat all names and
places in this fable as fictional. Any similarity of names or places in
this fable to any place or real person living or dead is purely
coincidental.
Any information that was used in this fable by the author(s) that did (or
didn't) come from other prior stories and fables about Scientology should
be considered a simultaneous exercise by that author or authors of all
their constitutional rights of petition, free speech, freedom of opinion,
satire, participation in government, or freedom of religion in
researching, evaluating or allegorically dialoging on any matter.
Finally, this fable may have been transferred to you by translating it

translation process. Also consider that this fable may contain content
errors due to language translation or electronic duplication (floppy disk)
or (modem) transfer failures or problems.
Because this document is not copyrighted feel free to correct any format
or translation errors. This fable may be used in any way the reader's soul
and spirit deems appropriate.
Some time in the future ...
There are many questions being asked about what Scientology really is. Is
Scientology the "Religion of Hollywood" being marketed by mega-celebrities
like Tom Cruise, John Travolta and some of Hollywood's biggest moguls? Is
it a pseudo psychotherapy cult or con game?
Is it a secret society or UFO group trying to go mainstream? Is it the
"Brotherhood of the Beast" and host for the incarnation of the Antichrist
as touted in the document that Scientology defectors call OT-8?
Others are asking: "Is Scientology a worldwide criminal organization? Is
it a bizarre new form of mystical Nazism and fascism? Is Scientology the
next Jonestown, Waco, Swiss Solar Temple and Japanese Aum suicide\murder
tragedy waiting to happen, or is Scientology all of these things?
This fable cannot address all of the questions that are now being asked
about this most unusual organization. Many of the above queries have been
adequately answered in other reports widely available on the Internet.
This fable will although pierce through the many layers of initiation
secrecy, security clearances and fear that cloaks the real Scientology -
and answer some of the most difficult and intriguing questions listed
above.
This fable will focus exclusively on the secret satanic elements of
Scientology, (part 1) the Hollywood celebrities and politicians involved
with this group (part 2) and the reports of member suicides, attempted
suicides and member induced psychotic episodes (part 3) At the end of this
fable (part 4) the reader will find a "Moral of the Fable" section as well
as other appendix sections which contain challenging ideas and additional
research resources available via the Internet and bookstores to further
assist him or her to independently evaluate the many questions and moral
and social dilemmas this fable presents.
Secrecy
Scientology's obsession with secrecy has developed for a purpose. It has
been deliberately designed to hide its abuses, casualties and its real
purposes and nature.
Less that 2% of the individuals within Scientology have ever seen the
inner secret initiations and information of this story. Significant parts
of this story have never been seen before in any form. Scientology members
who have been exposed to Hubbard's secret writings are required to sign
nondisclosure agreements for the rest of their lives. To attempt to
enforce secrecy Scientology has even registered Hubbard's secrets as its
"trade secrets".
This story is the result of decades years of research from the work of
many different researchers and sources. Often in unexpected ways, the
style and structure of this story will seem to suddenly twist and turn as
it tries to unveil the convoluted secret Scientology and the layers of
deception and misinformation used to hide it secrets from uninitiated
outside eyes and ears. In discovering the secret Scientology for yourself
keep in mind that the overall context of Scientology and its actual
actions IS as important as specific initiation details.
Why Now?
The release of this story is important because Scientology's global growth
and its activities should stimulate grave social concern. Scientology has
a claimed 6,000 staff members. It is estimated that it makes three hundred
million dollars a year in income and has two billion dollars in worldwide
assets.
There are now hundreds of Scientology and Dianetics groups and Scientology
"front group" recruiting organizations. Scientology and Dianetics are now
operating in almost every country in the world. It is making inroads into
global political systems and it appears to be taking over a significant
part of the Hollywood media machine.
The recent scientology raids and this story
To crush the free speech of its Internet critics and bar the free
religious expression of its former members from publishing, using and
distributing information on the matters contained in this story
Scientology has recently conducted a series of outrageous, highly
publicized "copyright infringement" seizure raids all over the world. In
these raids Scientology itself (not the government) was able to directly
seize private property and records concerning the secret Scientology
initiations from numerous individual homes and a non profit library and
archive. And it was able to do this without legal "due process" and under
falsely sworn affidavits.
Part of Scientology's real reasons for these raids was not the alleged
"copyright" infringement, but to prevent and limit the public exposure and
debate on Scientology's most secret initiations and the member casualties
surrounding the secret initiation processes. (At last review there are
over 100 regularly changing locations on the Internet where you can review
these secret initiations and enter into this heated free speech and
religious freedom dialog. Appendix 1 will help you find them. They are
contained in what is commonly called the "Fishman affidavit" or "Fishman
Geertz documents.")
At the very center of these "Fishman affidavit" copyright infringement
raids is a super secret, (highly disavowed by Scientology) document called
OT 8. In the OT 8 document which defectors claim to be authored by
Scientology's deceased founder, L Ron Hubbard, the highest initiates of
Scientology are instructed by Hubbard that Hubbard really is Lucifer the
Antichrist.
In this document Hubbard goes on to declare to Scientology's highest
initiates that Lucifer has really been unfairly maligned by Christian
churches and it is really Christ who is the evil and Lucifer who is good.
Hubbard then goes on to say that Christ was really a pedophile and child
molester and that Hubbard will soon return to human form from the
afterlife as a powerful politician to lead the world into a new era.
Commenting to the media after the raids, Warren L. McShane, President of
the Religious Technology Center, the Keeper of Hubbard's copyrights and
trade secrets, reiterated the necessity of keeping Hubbard's secrets away
from the minds of the uninitiated: "McShane said the church had every
right to aggressively protect its text. And, he said, certain advanced
texts could "do harm" if studied by people not yet deemed ready for them
by church officials.
"It's like jumping in an 18-wheeler and not knowing how to drive," McShane
said, adding, "Spiritually, a person has to be ready for it." McShane was
reflecting Scientology's internal views on these secret materials. In the
actual secret materials themselves initiates are warned that premature
exposure to the secrets will cause the individual to die, get very sick or
go insane.
The authenticity of the OT 8 document which discloses Scientology's
satanic nature, and information about how so many celebrities and
politicians have become involved in promoting this group has become a
stormy and ongoing discussion involving tens of thousands of people on and
off the Internet. This allegorical story will do much to help stimulate
the reader to independently evaluate the authenticity of the OT 8
document, the claims that Scientology is the world's largest secret
satanic society and understand how Hollywood's biggest names got involved
and could be promoting this organization.
PART ONE: SCIENTOLOGY RECRUITS HOLLYWOOD
Introduction
Part two of this report is a candid look at celebrities in the Church of
Scientology: how they are recruited, how they are used, and how they are
controlled. It explores how the secret society of Scientology is trying to
take over and control large numbers of Hollywood celebrities to use
Hollywood's media influence as leverage to recruit new unsuspecting
members from the public. (In appendix 2 you will find the largest list of
Scientology celebrities that has ever been assembled.)
The origins of Scientology's Hollywood fascination
L. Ron Hubbard and his alter ego Scientology have always had a fixation
for recruiting Hollywood celebrities. As far back as 1955, Hubbard
acknowledged the value of famous people to his fledgling, offbeat group
when he inaugurated "Project Celebrity."
According to Hubbard, Scientologists should target prominent individuals
as their "quarry" and bring them back like trophies for Scientology. He
listed the following people of that era as suitable prey: Edward R.
Murrow, Marlene Dietrich, Ernest Hemingway, Howard Hughes, Greta Garbo,
Walt Disney, Henry Luce, Billy Graham, Groucho Marx and others of similar
stature. "If you bring one of them home you will get a small plaque as a
reward," Hubbard wrote in a Scientology magazine more than three decades
ago. Although the original effort faded, the idea of using celebrities to
promote and defend Scientology survived and is now being expanded though
Hubbard's successor David Miscavige.
Celebrities are considered so important to the movement' s expansion that
the church created a special office to guide their careers and ensure
their "correct utilization" for Scientology. The church has created a
special branch that ministers to celebrities, providing them with
first-class treatment. Its headquarters, called Celebrity Center
International, is housed in a magnificent old turreted mansion on Franklin
Avenue, overlooking the Hollywood Freeway.
In Miscavige's Hollywood, Scientology has assembled a star-studded roster
of followers by aggressively recruiting and regally pampering them at the
church's "Celebrity Centers," a chain of country club like clubhouses that
offer expensive counseling and career guidance. Adherents include screen
idols Tom Cruise and John Travolta actresses Kirstie Alley, Mimi Rogers
and Anne Archer, Palm Springs mayor and performer Sonny Bono, jazzman
Chick Corea and even Nancy Cartwright, the voice of cartoon star Bart
Simpson.
Why Scientology pursues celebrities
Celebrities are of vital use in Scientology for numerous purposes: to
recruit the masses, to endorse L. Ron Hubbard's teachings, to give
Scientology greater acceptability in mainstream America and to forward
Scientology's secret goals of world control. In a society that often
equates celebrity with credibility, using highly recognized celebrities to
help hide, deflect or overcome Scientology's horrendous public relations
problems is understandable.
The roles that celebrities play in Scientology are dictated by a series of
Scientology policies called the Opinion Leader Policies that were written
by Hubbard. These policies state that you need to get your people into the
power points in society, (points where you are the opinion leader or you
control the opinion leader.) The Celebrity Center Program is nothing more
than an extension of Hubbard's plan of world domination by taking over or
controlling opinion leaders.
To create a favorable environment for Scientology's expansion, church
executives are working to win allies among society's power brokers and
opinion leaders. This theme is expounded in church publications, "We need
to be able to approach the right people in order to get things done,"
wrote Heber Jentzsch, president of the Church of Scientology
International, in the newspaper Scientology Today. "We need to find out
how to reach key people in the media, in government, in the control points
of society, the people who rule things." Underscoring the campaign's
breadth and determination, a pullout questionnaire entitled "Communication
Lines to the World" was inserted in the Scientology newspaper. It asked
Scientologists to list their connections to people in six areas:
POLITICS: "This would be political figures on a local, state or national
level, such as local city officials, mayors, governors, senators,
congressmen, and members of parliaments. It would also include government
agency officials and civil servants."
MEDIA: "This would be any media terminals that you know, such as owners or
proprietors of magazines, newswire services, newspapers or publishing
houses, and radio networks or stations and publishers and editors of any
type of news media." LEGAL: "This would be any judges, law enforcement
officials, lawyers, barristers and so on."
FINANCIAL / CORPORATE: "This would be any members of the board or
presidents, vice presidents or other senior officials/executives with
banks or other financial institutions (such as savings and loan companies,
credit unions, etc.) financiers (this could be government or private
industry) stockbrokers, financial advisers and commodities brokers."
ENTERTAINMENT / CELEBRITIES: "This would be any producers or directors in
the stage, motion pictures or television; actors, artists, writers and any
opinion leaders in these areas."
In HCO PL 12 January 1973 policy letter, Hubbard States: "The most
important action to undertake when going about making a Safe Point is to
carefully and painstakingly find out who exactly are the Top Dogs in the
area in financial and political circles and their associates and their
connections, and to what each one is hostile."
All of this information is sent to the intelligence branch of Scientology.
(Keep in mind one of the major activities of a secret society is turning
its members into deployable agents who will fanatically use their
resources and connections to forward the goals of the group or knock out
the enemies of the group.)
How celebrities are recruited into Scientology
The first thing to realize about recruiting celebrities in Scientology is
that they are kept ignorant about what is really going on until they are
hooked. The celebrities are shielded from all bad news. They are pampered
and isolated in the finest buildings in settings like country-clubs.
They're kept totally away from all the cruelty and the abuse that goes on
inside the organization, and at Scientology's gulag-type concentration
camps and punishment centers.
Most Scientology celebrities are victims that don't know that they are
being systematically deceived and rendered suggestible by use of
counseling processes that are no more that covert hypnosis. A very few of
them know about Scientology's secret goals, but most of them have no idea
about the suicides or the attempted suicides at the Celebrity centers or
other centers. Any time they hear anything negative they are told "It's
all lies. Don't listen to it"
The battle-plan
To recruit a new celebrity, Scientology staff members at a Celebrity
Center often create a battle plan. This battle plan in many cases could or
would contain a flowchart of the celebrity's key connections, their
"psychological buttons" and their "emotional buttons.
Everything is done to learn as much as possible about the target
non-Scientology celebrity. The following are just a few key areas of
information that are assembled on the target: who are the celebrity's
closest friends, their business contacts, places most often frequented,
credit histories, public records and police reports.
Any information on the targeted celebrity is fair game. It can be used to
manufacture an "innocent" or coincidental recruiting opportunity or can be
used to produce a recruiting influence leverage over the target.
Wherever possible, a Scientology celebrity is used to help set up and
recruit a non-Scientology celebrity. Because a Scientology celebrity's
loyalty to Scientology can be absolutely blinding, Scientology celebrities
would not be beyond divulging almost anything they know about the non
Scientology celebrity target.
Once all this information is assembled the Celebrity Center staff
implements the Battle Plan. They try to set up a meeting scenario that
looks like a chance meeting. The best "set ups" are enacted where a lot of
unknown Scientology shills can be placed around the target celebrity. Some
other Scientology celebrity friends are there too, (Scientology has been
using charity events lately for this.)
Once the meeting is started some general communication is first
established to relax the target. They can't obviously just walk up and say
"Come to the Scientology center"; first they have to establish a rapport
with the person. Once they have got a conversation going they gradually
try to steer the discussion over to the target's emotional or
psychological buttons, and\or they start "admiration-bombing" the target.
When the emotional button "hook" has been placed into the target then they
start telling them about Scientology and invite them to an event or in to
the center.
The late Yvonne Jentzsch, the original head and originator of the first
Celebrity Center, said the way to hook celebrities is to "admiration-bomb"
them. (This means you emotionally over flood them with attention and
admiration.) From her teaching and example, the Scientology staff quickly
learned as a method of invisible but powerful control to give celebrities
the excessive God-like admiration they are vulnerable to.
A former celebrity center staff members reports watching her handle
celebrities. Yvonne demonstrated that she could "push these admiration and
attention buttons" on the celebrities to get them to do just about
anything. On one hand, she'd say "We really can use these celebrities to
bring in more people", and on the other hand she would talk derogatorily
about the various celebrities that she was manipulating. About Karen Black
she said. "Karen's just a dingbat, and so promiscuous." Chick Corea was a
puppy, she said. "I can get him to do anything for me, just give me the
phone."
Keep in mind that celebrities are usually not college graduates with
Doctorates. Most celebrities have no idea that there is such sophisticated
and pervasive hidden manipulation governing every step of the recruiting
process used to get them into Scientology.
Generally celebrities got into show business to achieve fame (attention
and admiration.) These are ready made hooks for them. The Scientology
recruiting con is so good that during the recruiting meeting the target
celebrity is made to think that the new friends (hidden recruiters) are
friendly, VERY knowledgeable and the offers of help or benefit being
suggested are just the perfect coincidence to provide what just happened
to be needed.
Targeting celebrity vulnerability
A low point in her career led Karen Black, 36, into Scientology 10 years
ago. "It made me real happy," she says with a smile. "Mr. Hubbard has a
very formidable technology for the relief of the despair that people carry
around with them. It makes you very free."
When Scientology targets celebrities, it focuses on three kinds: those who
are on their way down - they have a reason to listen; those who haven't
made it yet, they also have a reason to listen because they want to get on
top; and those who have made it but have some sort of severe problem in
their lives that makes them vulnerable.
Scientology also exploits celebrities' vulnerability by providing a false
but seemingly "meaningful" new role for their celebrity power. Scientology
involvement suggests to the celebrity that they are going to be more than
just fluff and frill, or another Hollywood empty headed pretty face or a
sex symbol.
Scientology gradually suggests to targeted celebrities that by joining
this world movement they become part of a secret and special elite and are
gaining a "world historic destiny" for their celebrity power. In the
shallow celebrity world of Hollywood this is a powerful initial
intoxication and inducement to get involved.
What do the celebrities get from Scientology?
Scientology celebrities aren't endorsing Scientology just because they
personally like it. They are getting a lot more than the average member
gets. What they get is:
1.) Some free services and discounted services. In the HCO PL 1 January
1963 policy letter Hubbard says: "Central Orgs (organizations) are
instructed to process selected celebrities who are just beyond or who are
just coming into their prime. The pay is to be any contribution you would
care to make if we have helped. No other pay is demanded."
2.) Commissions. In some cases they get commissions of ten percent of the
take from people coming in the door.
3.) Special perks. One of the perks that celebrities get is a considerable
amount of free use of Scientology's private country clubs and properties.
The following recent revelations were made about typical celebrity
treatment in a affidavit to Los Angeles lawyers by Andre Tabayoyon, a
Scientologist for 21 years.
I, ANDRE TABAYOYON, declare as follows:
115. I witnessed money from various non profit Scientology organizations,
and labor provided by various non profit Scientology organizations being
used for the personal benefit of Miscavige, Tom Cruise, other Scientology
senior executives and other Scientology celebrities (such as John
Travolta, Chick Corea and Priscilla Presley).
117. Miscavige, other senior Scientologists and certain celebrities would
also use the movie theater we constructed on the base to view first run
movies provided to him by his acquaintances in the movie industry. The
cost of this was easily $150,000. This cost does not include labor (again
slave labor) or expensive film projection equipment.
118. During the 1980's, Miscavige befriended the actor Tom Cruise and they
spend a lot of time together on the Hemet base. Their special chef, Sinar
Parman, would prepare them fancy meals. Often they would hang out alone in
the space designated for L. Ron Hubbard on the Clipper Ship we built in
the desert. This space had a small kitchen, a little dining room, a little
bar and a bed. They also had the exclusive use of the officers lounge. On
other occasions Miscavige and Cruise would work out in the expensive gym
we built for exclusive and restricted use.
No one else was allowed to talk to Tom Cruise when he was on the base. One
time one of the gardeners spoke to him and this caused a major flap on the
base. At Gold, Miscavige is known by his initials DM and Tom Cruise by his
initials TC. From the late 1980's until I left the Gold, Tom
Cruise was provided a personal and exclusive apartment and storage
facilities by the Scientology organization and at Scientology's expense.
Tom Cruise kept two Yamaha motorcycles, a Mercedes Benz automobile and a
large motor home at Gold. These were stored in what used to be Hubbard's
garage and parking lot. Obviously, Miscavige and Cruise have developed a
special relationship. One is a young world-domineering celebrity. The
other is a young domineering cult leader who seeks to 'clear' the world
and to rule it according to Scientology beliefs and practices.
119. When Tom Cruise got married to Nicole Kidman, they and David
Miscavige went to a Colorado Ski Resort for the marriage ceremony. A Sea
Org staffer (Sinar Parman) was taken along to do personal cooking for Tom
Cruise and Miscavige at the expense of Scientology not for profit
religious organizations. This left only 3 cooks at Gold to cook for 800
people three times a day.
120. I personally participated in the construction of an apartment at the
Gold base, using extensive funds from various non profit Scientology
religious organizations, for the personal and exclusive use of Tom Cruise.
This was done on the orders of David Miscavige. Even though Miscavige has
claimed to be Chairman of the Board of RTC, here he is directing the
expenditure of CSI money and the deployment of CSI labor -- both paid and
slave. Other apartment cottages were built for the use of John Travolta,
Kirstie Alley, Edgar Winters, Priscilla Presley and other Scientology
celebrities who are carefully prevented from finding out the real truth
about the Scientology organization. The labor used to construct Tom
Cruise's apartment was provided by Gold, a division of CSI, and persons
from a myriad of Scientology organizations serving time in the RPF.
The RPF (Rehabilitation Project Force) is the Scientology gulag or
concentration camp. Using RPF'ers to renovate and reconstruct Tom Cruise's
personal and exclusive apartment at the Scientology Gold base is
equivalent to the use of slave labor for Tom Cruise's benefit. The Tom
Cruise apartment at the Gold base is located at the golf course end of the
Gold base, closest to State Street. When Tom Cruise visits the Gold base,
and stays in his personal apartment, he is cared for by a Sea Org steward.
121. We also had to renovate the Tom Cruise apartment at the Hemet Base
after it was damaged by a mud slide. The repairs had to be performed on an
emergency basis. Both the Gold crew and the RPF'ers were placed on
extended hours to restore the apartment. Again, Tom Cruise was benefiting
from the use of what is essentially prison slave labor being worked almost
around the clock.
122. Tom Cruise also enjoyed use of facilities constructed on the Gold
base that were not available to any Scientology staff except the senior
most Scientologists on the base, particularly Miscavige and his
lieutenants. For example, I saw Tom Cruise use the exercise room which was
off limits to at least 98 percent of the staff. Tom Cruise also had
unrestricted access to the Ship which has a sauna, Jacuzzi and a large
Olympic sized swimming pool. With regard to the Miscavige/Cruise gym this
was built in conjunction with the estates facility in approx. 1989.
The gym building cost approx. $150,000 (again using slave labor) and
contains a complete lineup of the most modern weight training equipment.
It is one of the most incredible gyms imaginable and is for the exclusive
use of Tom Cruise, David Miscavige and other specially and specifically
approved by him. It also has an incredible shower area.
123. To assure that Tom Cruise's stays at the Hemet base were enjoyable,
special provisions were made for him and restrictions were imposed on the
staff at the Hemet base. Millions of Church dollars were spent so that
millionaire Tom Cruise could regularly visit the Scientology base and be
friends with Miscavige. For example, Tom Cruise received special meal
services, special room services and the Hemet base staff was restricted in
its access to Hemet base facilities. Indeed, a girl by the name of Jennie
Matsamura was assigned to take care of him and his renovated cottage. The
Hemet base staff was barred from going where Tom Cruise might be present.
Construction and renovation work that was done on the base for Tom
Cruise's benefit often had to be torn up and redone because the coloring
was slightly off or there were a few inches of group that didn't quite
match in color. Once we had to pour a concrete walkway so that Tom Cruise
would not have to walk on the desert soil. Before the concrete dried it
rained. The concrete was spoiled.
Miscavige went into a fury over that.
124. On one occasion, prior to a Cruise/Kidman visit, Miscavige decided to
redo the meadow in beautiful flowers; Tens of thousands of dollars were
spent on the project so that Cruise and Kidman could romp there. However,
Miscavige inspected the project and didn't like it. So the whole meadow
was plowed up, destroyed, re-plowed and sown with plain grass...
131. In 1989/1990 we also constructed a tennis court at Gold for the
exclusive list of Celebrities and Miscavige. Non profit Scientology
religious organization funds were used for this inurement project. The
tennis court cost at least $200,000 to build. The rubber coating alone, on
the tennis court, cost $80,000. Then there was the landscaping and rose
garden around the tennis court.
I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of
America and of the State of California that the foregoing is true and
correct. Executed in Los Angeles, California this 5th day of March, 1994.
Andre Tabayoyon
The IRS made the following comment in its tax ruling during the tax status
appeal of Scientology in U. S. Claims Court Number 581-88T, Ruling of June
22nd, 29th, 1992:
It is not unlike a commercial business strategically giving away services
in an effort to increase sales by obtaining a celebrity endorsement."
4.) The Faustian advantage. The story of Faust is about a person who gives
up its soul and spirit to the devil in order to obtain worldly success and
power. Here we have a Satanic cult wooing celebrities who are already
highly vulnerable to fame, attention and money. One can not help but
wonder if the celebrities who know Scientology's secrets have in a some
conscious or unconscious way made the Faustian bargain.
5.) Celebrities also get into Scientology because other celebrities
already did, and because some behind the scenes people are working to get
them lured in.
6.) People whether celebrities or not often join a cult when they are in a
"transition state," like starting in college, getting divorced, getting
fired, starting new job, etc. And actors are always in transition: after
having completed an assignment, they have fears: Will the film, musical or
play be a success?
Will they get a new job? This must be terrible, and totally new for most
of us, since we get paid every month and only search a new job every few
years. The last one makes actors very vulnerable to someone selling
certainty or confidence.
What's expected from celebrities in Scientology
Every possible effort, pressure, and sales tactic is brought to bear on
existing celebrity membership to recruit other new celebrities into
Scientology. Celebrities are heavily indoctrinated to their duty and
responsibility of recruiting new celebrities.
They also are expected to constantly promote and talk about Scientology.
Recruiting and other Scientology promoting activities proves their loyalty
to the organization and approves their security clearance to go to the
next secret level.
Celebrity activity is closely monitored. If they don't promote Scientology
in their media coverage or if they don't promote it at their events or do
special events for Scientology their loyalty is questioned. The following
are three examples of Scientology celebrity endorsements and promotions:
"lt's nice to know you can be a cause of your life as well as an effect,"
convert John Travolta, 23, says of his Scientology training. "lt's a
logical and very sane way of living. I don't get upset as easily as I used
to. I don't think I could have handled my success as well without it."

"The Road To Freedom" album of LRH songs released on CD! Attendees of the
23rd of June event were able to snap up the brand new edition of "The Road
To Freedom" album now available on CD and cassette. This album features
such leading artists as John Travolta, Chick Corea, Julia Migenes, Karen
Black, Nicky Hopkins, Amanda Ambrose, Gayle Moran and Leif Garrett. This
album is a unique and highly enjoyable collection of songs composed by L.
Ron Hubbard to impart to the listener some of the basic knowledge that
Scientology offers. Whilst viewed as controversial by those who seek to
oppose man's spiritual freedom, the lyrics on this album offer answers to
questions man has asked for eons."
Kirstie Alley is active in disseminating a new 47 page booklet on ways to
preserve the environment. The booklet, entitled "Cry Out," was named after
a Hubbard song and was produced by Author Services Inc., his literary
agency. Author Services is controlled by influential Scientologists. In
April, Alley provided nationwide exposure for the illustrated booklet
(which mentions Hubbard but not Scientology) when she unveiled it on the
popular Arsenio Hall Show. Since then, it has been distributed to
prominent environmental groups throughout the U.S.
Although the advertising isn't finished yet, the new campaign includes a
half-hour "documercial" entitled "The Problem of Life." It dramatizes a
couple who are looking for answers to the questions of life," a spokesman
said, such as: What's it all about? Where are we going? Wouldn't it be
good to have a job that is fulfilling? The couple unsuccessfully visits a
doctor, a psychotherapist and a marriage counselor. "At the end, they find
out Scientology could provide the answers," the spokeswoman said. The
documercial ends with a 10-minute direct-sales pitch from Jeff Pomerantz,
the soap-opera star (best known for his role in the "Dynasty" series) who
is one of the church's several celebrity members.
Celebrities are not only pushing Scientology and Scientology's non
religious alter ego Dianetics for multilevel marketing like commissions;
they are also heavily pushing the Scientology front groups, like Narconon,
the Way to Happiness, Applied Scholastics, and others.
A partial list of front groups set up and directly or indirectly
controlled by Scientology, and which are involved in recruiting for
Scientology or covertly or overtly attacking adversaries or defending
Scientology, includes:
the Committee To Defend The First Amendment
the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation
the Citizens Commission On Human Rights
Narconon
the Committee On Public Health And Safety
the Task Force On Mental Retardation
the Gerus Society
the Dianetic Information Group
the Committee To Re-involve Ex-offenders
the National Commission for Law Enforcement And Social Justice
the Foundation For The Communication of Culture International
Doctors For Religious Liberty
Vanguard, April, (a pseudo anti cult organization)
Alliance To Protect Religious Liberty
Committee For A Safe Environment
American Citizens For Honesty in Government
the Way to Happiness Foundation
the Whistle Blowers
Health Med
Criminon
Applied Scholastics
Concerned Businessman's Association of America
Sterling Management
Scientology's Front Groups play an important role. Scientology set up
reform groups shortly after Hubbard, in 1966, wrote:
"Churches are looked upon as reform groups. Therefore we must act like a
reform group."
Scientology and Dianetics are held in such disrepute that in public
Scientology must use front groups to defend it, speak for it, and attack
its enemies. Internal confidential documents seized by the F.B.I. show
that social reform activities were designed primarily to attack critics
publicly from the safe and respectable position of a humane social reform
group.
An example of Hubbard's thinking on this matter is policy directive HCO PL
12 January 1973 "The Safe Point":
"...Rule l...Get in a safe place and speak up. It is necessary of course
to have a safe place to get into, from which one can in safely speak up.
One cannot defend himself in a point that has no defenses...Thus the Safe
Point takes consideration over Active Defense...a special unit must be set
up and run at full steam to make a safe point and gain viable PR Area
Control over all publics in the area...The PR Area Control action in a new
area can go so far as to create in the area of whole past and future track
for the activity being established. It can make it sound old-fashioned,
stable, reliable, expert, productive..."
The Scientology social reform front groups fulfill Hubbard's directives to
a "T." Very few people will attack a social reform group, so Scientology
now has its "Safe Point" from which these groups can get its own
propaganda messages across.
Front groups and charity events
Celebrities are expected to do charity events for the front groups of
Scientology. These front group charity events serve as very successful
invisible recruiting forums to for other non Scientology celebrities.
Here's how it works. One Scientology celebrity "innocently" contacts
another non- Scientology celebrity and says, "How would you like to do a
charity event with me to help raise money for drug rehabilitation?" Then
the other celebrity usually agrees.
He or she has no idea that it's a Scientology front group recruiting group
like Narconon or the Way To Happiness Foundation, or one of their
ecological or other Scientology front groups. Because the front group's
name sounds established credible, stable, reliable, etc. and the goal of
the charity event sounds benign and worthwhile, the non-Scientology
celebrities get sucked in to inadvertently having their names used to
promote or in association with the Scientology front groups. Then to make
things even worse they individually become the target of the powerful and
manipulative celebrity-recruiting machine if they attend the event.
Scammed by Scientology front groups:
Lee Brown, the U.S. Marshals and William Bennett Clinton's Drug czar all
got scammed by the Narconon program and a bunch of Scientology celebrities
helped con the U.S. Marshals into endorsing Narconon and Scientology. When
the U.S. Marshals found out what this was about, they withdrew it. A
similar case is William Bennett, the drug czar, who got stung by the
Narconon program because a bunch of celebrities were promoting "Keep Off
Drugs." When he put his name in it he had no idea that it was a
Scientology celebrity front action.
Gov. Jim Edgar rescinded a proclamation that declared March 13 as "L. Ron
Hubbard Day" in Illinois in honor of the late founder of the Church of
Scientology. Gubernatorial proclamations traditionally are issued to honor
deeds of individuals at the request of a variety of organizations. Edgar
aides said the Hubbard proclamation "slipped through the cracks" and was
issued without any thought surrounding the controversial author and church
founder.
In his original proclamation, issued Feb. 28, Edgar said Hubbard's
"writings on the mind and human spirit have helped millions of people lead
better lives. His literary works have enriched the lives of many readers."
But Tuesday, Edgar issued only a one-sentence proclamation, stating that
his original proclamation was rescinded.
Another Scientology-linked group, the Concerned Businessmen's Association
of America, holds anti- drug contests and awards $5,000 grants to schools
as a way to recruit students and curry favor with education officials.
West Virginia Senator John D. Rockerfeller IV unwittingly commended the
CBAA in 1987 on the Senate floor.
An October 1990 news release from the church [of Scientology], said
Senator John McCain and Reps. Jon Kyl, John Rhodes, Bob Stump and then
Rep. Morris Udall had written to the IRS asking it to explain why it was
targeting Scientologists. "I find it hard to believe these guys didn't
have a clue. Then again God hasn't blessed us with the brightest
politicians," Said a writer at the Arizona Republic on June 29, 1991.
How Scientology keeps control over its Hollywood members
In the beginning of the recruiting process for celebrities and non
celebrities alike, Scientology uses personality and other tests to cull
out which target members are the most suggestible from the least
suggestible. These tests and exercises inform Scientology staff about who
can and can't be put into hypnotic trance. If a person can't go in a
trance, they usually don't stay in Scientology long, because almost all of
Scientology's techniques are based upon covert hypnosis and the increased
suggestibility hypnosis produces.
The celebrities who are still in Scientology have passed the hypnotic
suggestibility culling process. That is not to say that celebrities are
statistically any more hypnotically suggestible than anyone else in the
population. It just means that through its clever culling process
Scientology has isolated them and has "worked" their other vulnerabilities
to establish and maintain their control over the celebrity.
In the next step of the recruiting process, Scientology celebrities are
bombarded with hyped-up, hypnosis imbalanced "success stories." Moments
after completing every suggestion pregnant hypnotic Scientology counseling
session the celebrity targets are then REQUIRED to write their own glowing
"success stories." (In many of these counseling sessions Scien
