This is why I think ex members need to read widely, and compare, so as
to put Hubbard and Scientology into context and let Scientology lose
it's grip on them.
This article mentions the character flaws of even the great Nobel
prize winning novelist William Faulkner, who is uncomparably greater
than Hubbard, but this short excellent article (I think by a Pulitzer
Prize winning journalist, http://www.hofmag.com/content/view/369/30/
) mentions even Faulkner's post WW I false front presentations of
himself, that just made me see how much lesser but similar, Hubbard
was.
An article like this just cuts right through a lot of life, and puts
things into context.
I highly recommend ex members read good journalism and good current
smart writers.
There are so many smarter minds out in the world commenting on life.

ANSWERS below:
> Chuck:
In my opinion, I think it is a combination of things.
1) Being
assigned to the RPF, means one has areas of supposed transgressions
which the group expects (and Snr C/S Int Office, who do the final CSW
approval to graduate) expect to see that the areas of transgressions
are dealt with "standardly" meaning "charge" is shown to be found and
dealt with to the expected "end phenomenon." The actual literally
accepted requirements for graduation are on paper demonstration,
through the evidence in the preclear folders, and in writeups by the
RPFer, like his "success stories" of having addressed and actually
stated either in session or in his success stories, that he's dealt
with the areas of transgressions and also the notations by the auditor
(the person's RPF twin who keeps the preclear folder notes and who
writes the after session Knowledge Reports) that there is evidence
mainly in the pc folder that the correct needle phenomenon all add up
to the areas of transgressions having been handled. Complications to
this occuring:
a) RPF twin is a dolt, incapable of auditing skilled
enough, and quickly enough, effectively enough, to supposedly get all
the necessary evidence onto worksheets, and produce in the person
sufficient "case gain" that the person utters the words that they have
"changed" for the better and also the person writes the necessary
"success stories" at the end of the auditing actions (the FPRD Forms,
the sec checks or other auditing actions which as you know are all
neatly specified as a certain number of questions, and all questions
taken to "no reaction" upon checking those questions on the meter, and
all TA (Tone Arm action) "run out" on the question, and the person has
the indicators of being "clean" on that question, and all questions on
all necessary Forms (FPRD forms) all so handled, all evidence in the
pc folders, all Knowledge Reports written, and the person does "lower
conditions" addressing all his admitted transgressions, amends,
apologies, etc, and ALL this evidence neatly boxed up, sent to through
the local RPF internal superiors for "okay to graduate" and then
through about 3 or 4 other layers of external positions in the local
Cont Senior Case Supervisor Office, to the Int Senior Case Supervisor
Office, and used to go to a Tech person in RTC for the final okay to
graduate. It is a months long process. And EVERY damn goof on every
possible sec check question, is looked for in the pc folders.
Everything has to all be in order. There are hundreds of sec check/
FPRD questions asked, all have to be handled to end phenomenon all
clearly shown in the worksheets, so that the external superiors can
"okay" the person to graduate the RPF and go back to Sea Org duties.
(whew, and this is just the first answer)
b) The targeted RPFer assigned to the RPF, has to maneuver himself
just right so as NOT to appear a victim, even if he was a victim,
meaning a victim of genuine injustice. Some people have such a long
history in the Sea Org of injustices, that they are almost in a mental
unhandleable situation after years of injustices all intertwined with
genuine "transgressions" on their parts. Some people have the
supposed problems of PTS A-J (like me, I was chronically "open-
minded", "reasonable", I sided with investigative journalists, I side
with judges who sit in judgement AGAINST Scientology, I side with
outside people who cannot but find fault with Scientology). That's
just A-J PTS points, I had/have about 3 chronic unhandleable ones.
Also there is the Green Form Resistive cases points: unhandled drugs'
unhandled earlier practices; exposure to psych treatment or drugs, and
all the rest of the Green Form 40 XXX "resistive cases" problems.
Well, as you might guess, the Sea Org members who end up on the RPF
have one or more likely those 7 "resistive cases" problems. All
RPFers are considered to have "evil purposes" which is one of the 7
resistive cases "problem." And all RPFers have to deal with their
"evil purposes" and that is done with the sec checking for evil
purposes, called False Purpose Rundown. Now, admidst bad auditing,
lousy metering, lousy TRs, lots of possible years of unhandled
silently resented injustices one's accumulated, and amidst possible
deep beliefs like the fact that one might think still, after years of
being in Scientology, one might be like me, and think that the outside
world just might be right, and Hubbard and Scientology might be all
wrong, well that is one of the PTS A-J points (I had several) and it's
also one of the Green Form 40XXX resistive case points, and ON TOP OF
THESE GENUINE CASE reasons are legitimate problems that lengthen one's
stay on the RPF, there are the injustices NEVER handleable, because
one's injustices if connected to fellow Sea Org members who are in
good standing, for instance make this easy, let's say David Miscavige
was responsible for one getting about 20 injustices, there is no way
in hell one is able to get out of the RPF, since one cannot deal with
the injustices forced on one by Miscavige, because one HAS to also NOT
have any charge on David Miscavige when asked about David Miscavige in
the final final "clean assessment" which is a list of questions one
has to herucleaunly withstand being asked on the meter and the meter
has to NOT react one slightest quiver and the "clean assessment"
questions relate to principle seniors in the Sea Org.
I could go on, but this is turning into a major paper, and it deserves
a detailed chapter, all written up smartly and summarized better than
I can do here.
Call me, on the phone, and I can go back and forth, in detail, and you
will someday understand why the RPF, why the procedures of the RPF,
all lead to locating transgressions, as the mainstay action, in the
end, in the end, and skilled skilled "good" auditing, or a person
lucky enough mentally to have their own innate mental equillibrium to
basically withstand this whole procedure.
I'd say unquestionably, that the whole operation is a gruesome mind
bending experience, it is cutting edge Orwellian mind manipulation,
occuring live, in the spaces in the photos.
I can only stay on the question so long, I drift off.
c) Whole track is where all evil purposes are required to end up. So
one goes whole track, until the BD F/N meter phenomenon occurs, and
one finds (imagines, makes up in my opinion) some "whole track"
incident (and after years of auditing, one makes up a whole long
imaginative whole track history for oneself that one convinces onesel,
or not, sufficiently of, that this sort of transferance of
responsibility of one's this lifetime transgressions somehow relate to
one's long ago deeply instill behavior due to one's overts or
predicaments in some last life on some far away imagined planet and
galaxy, etc, and it takes time to build up to skill in creating this
whole track crap for oneself to tie one's this lifetime supposed
transgressions and "evil purposes" to). Some people are dolts at
making up their whole track history sufficient to "blow" their evil
purposes to satisfactory bits, and get floating needles and so forth
in the process of this fictionalizing all their this lifetime supposed
transgressions into a "chain" one has supposedly dramatized in many
lifetimes stretched on end. It takes goddamn time to make all this
up, so people in the rooms behind the walls in these photos are
sitting there making up all this whole track history, creating their
own relations to their this lifetime behavior, trying to get those
floating needles, and the evidence to prove they are now okay to
return to duty as "cleaned up" Sea Org members who will NOT do bad
things again, once they are let free from the RPF.
(whew again!)
> Any reasonable human being can write up their O/W's on their whole current
ha! You have not had a couple thousand hours auditing my friend!
You have barely gotten into creating (remembering supposedly) the
vastness of your past lives, and all of the transgressions of those
past lives that you are dramatizing in your every waking moment, my
man! You are a blocked case if you cannot see the vastness of your
past lives! Boy are you in for some fun!
> Why does it take them so long to do this for?
You must have a block on your wholetrack, is all I can say.
No seriously, if you were in tech, if you were to spend a week sitting
in the RPF co-audit, and you were to track with all of the slow case
progress, and were you to Case Supervise the RPF for a couple months,
and you were actually a trained tech person, you would not ask your
question.
Simple Scientological answrers: Green Form 40XXX resistive cases (all
7 of them); PTS A-J policy letter. And the False Purpose Rundown
auditing series bulletins, which contain the difficulties, one of case
blocks is inability to go "whole track" easily (in otherwords invent
your supposed space opera history and satisfactorily connect your
invented case to your this lifetime "transgressions" to produce the
needle phenomenon to graduate, balancing with your fellow dolts on the
RPF, balancing with your having too many injustices perpetrated
against you by Scientology leadership who are "good guys" so you can't
blame them for those injustices they perpetrated against you, which
all resuls in a bad "needle" and you will NEVER get your "clean
assessment" done, because you just got TOO MUCH militating against
you.
> And, if they are in the rooms you describe, they have air conditioners in
I'm getting new info, as I got the floors wrong. Once I get the
updated info, I'll correct my posting errors on what floor does what.
Things changed, I am learning.
> RPF'ers with air conditioning? Do they also get continental breakfast served
The air conditioning will likely be the course rooms. That is what I
am waiting to confirm. Auditing is done in the course rooms, and air
conditioning for the auditing, with the "higher standards" today,
since video'ing of the needle to present with one's evidence of
satisfactory handling of all one's "evil purposes" relating to why one
was RPFed, the session setup requirements are not too hot, not too
cold, and air conditioning is a must for sessions, thankfully, even
for the RPFers.
> Their are upstat Sea Org members at Flag whose berths have no air
> Larry
You need to contact a few dozen ex members personally. Email Mike and
Donna Henderson, they had air conditioning.
Ask more ex Sea Org members who post on Clambake, and you will see.
I had air conditioning at almost all the Florida and LA berthing
building rooms I stayed in. I'd say only about 30% of the time did I
live in a dorm that didn't have air conditioning.
Some Sea Org members buy their own air conditioners!

> If any scientologist cares to enlighten me about their "religion" by
Agreed the prices are way too much. Only upper class to slightly
higher than middle class people can afford the highest OT levels, and
thus the FULL Scientology bridge. One has to return next lifetime, be
smarter and more successful, and then buy the rest of the Bridge that
one cannot afford this lifetime!
If you are a spirit (I don't believe you or I are), but let's say I'm
wrong, and we all actually are spirits, then all of Scientology could
be right.
We could be infested with other amnesia trance clusters of spirits,
the excess leftover dead spirits from the conceivable other space
civilizations around our sector of the galaxy.
I don't believe any of this for a second, but if we are spirits, then
this could be conceivable.
Just like right as we speak there could be other civilizations in
space out there, that's how this could all be true.
And if we are spirits, "ghosts in the machine", or spirits, plunk, in
our heads, running our bodies like puppets.
The Scientology "bridge" takes you up to realizing you are a spirit,
and sometimes people during the trek up the bridge pop out, and "see"
their surroundings, have their out of the body experiences, and thus
conclude that they are indeed spirits, or "ghosts in the machine",
spirits in bodies, thus immortal, thus will return, conceivably, next
lifetime to inhabit another body, and so on, and so on, and all your
prior lives, well those were just hidden due to your between lives
"implants" that you recieve each time you die, because right after
death, you get sucked up to one of the neighboring "implant" stations
that track and suck up all the dying spirits, implant you neatly, so
you stay pretty dull and ignorant about all your status.
Earth is supposedly a "prison" planet.
Scientology is supposedly waking you up to all this whole space opera
drama that is going on in this sector of the galaxy.
Of course this is just too alarming to dicuss, and might cause those
"guys" out there who are enslaving earth, from making a quick trip
down here to earth to do something nasty to us, if everyone here gets
all "OT" and peppy and mutinous to the whole neat dumb state of mind
(namely atheists and people who DON'T believe in the spirit stuff are
GOOD slaves from the Marcab Confederacy people who have designated
earth a slave planet).
So that's why it is insignificant the amount of money you pay for
Scientology, or how bad Scientology treats ANYONE on earth.
In the bigger scheme of things, Scientology is the ONLY group freeing
spirits truly on earth, from this whole amnesia implanting scenario
that is all earth people's ignorant fate.
Thus no matter what Scientology does, it is doing the right thing.
You don't read in the newspaper about the Marcab Confederacy having
earth under slave conrol, but that's our fate unfortunately. It's all
hush hush!
You're only going to figure this all out, once you get up the
Scientology bridge, see the millions years long history of earth, put
all the pieces together, go do the various LRH lecture series that
contain all Hubbard's other speculations about the history and purpose
and status of earth, and then you will be a "hatted" "OT" and know the
huge responsibility you have in helping get the people of earth up the
OT levels, and able to withstand the between lives implanting that you
will surely face when you die this next time (which you don't even
realize was a problem or option, since you were endlessly implanted
all your past string of lives, that you didn't even have a clue about,
did you?).
Okay, so that's sort of how Scientology's/Hubbard's secret doctrines
could all be right, and you should be shelling out the big bucks to
get it all straight and standardly within official Scientology.
All the bucks the movement has, are for keeping it all setup, so that
no matter who fails getting all the way this lifetime, the movement
will be here for your next lifetime, and try to be born in a western
civ country or choose a profession so you can afford this body of
truths, so you eventually are freed of the endless dying and between
lives implanting and anmesia trance stuff you get hit with each time
you die.
Stick with Scientology, remember Scientology next lifetime, and you
can try to get up the OT levels and free yourself, so you KNOW you
won't get stuck in the implant routine next time you die!
Get up to causative exterior movement and "cause" as a spirit, per the
definition of OT, which is being cause without the need of a body, and
when you get there, you will one of the "old time" (from past space
civilizations) type "OT" that hung out in meat body civilizations but
you didn't have to have a body, you were a free floating powerful
spirit, sans body. LRH is a couple lectures mentions when he so
existed and the trouble he one time caused, and why here on earth,
free OTs without bodies "scare" the powers in control, and free OTs
without bodies are so feared they are then enslaved and degraded back
into accepting and being limited to life in bodies since the humanoid
leaders of planets can't trust those pesky free floating free OTs who
do things without bodies.
I mean it is all fantasy, I agree.
And it all goes back, in my opinion, to the cosmologically unproven
"ghost in the machine" argument.
I finally in the end of my 27 year Sea Org staff career, had to admit
there are NO "OTs", no free flying spirits.
If there were, then earth would already have been transformed, and
Scientology wouldn't be facing any problems. In fact Scientology
wouldn't even be in existence, if the "ghost in the machine" theory
were true. There's been plenty who have believed, and have failed to
convince the world of this spirit in the body theory.
That's to me, how this all came crumbling down for me.
But, it only makes sense, if there is this possibility that we still
are spirits in bodies.
I don't buy it though. And my current favorite rational scientist
that I recommend ex Scientologists listen to, Steven Pinker, in this
almost 2 hour lecture, where Pinker covers a lot of ground that is
relevant to the Scientology belief in spirits, which Pinker clearly
states, and I agree, there is simply NO proof:
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5328790388262397286&q=steven...
But if I were a Scientologist still, then all my other statements
above are what I would tell you!
