I acknowledge and validate the many good staff and public Scientologists that are working assiduously to help others with Scientology. I acknowledge that great results are accomplished. It is hard work indeed. It is made harder by mismanagement.

Contrary to what we are led to believe, the church is not the fastest growing religion on earth, there are not 8 million Scientologists and the PR for Scientology is not good. It is in fact among the worst of all religions. This is not caused by "someone else". It is caused by the church management. As one knows when studying Scientology and attaining spiritual freedom, one is causing one's own enemies. It's time to stop the technology of L. Ron Hubbard from being dragged down by misapplication and the ensuing bad PR. As of 2009-08-07 I am no longer a member of the Church of Scientology.

As part of me following the formula for sorting out a condition of doubt I hereby publish my whole write-up. This is public domain - I hope this will serve as a small step in the direction of separating the public notion that the Scientology philosophy is equal to the Church of Scientology. I will do my utmost to help people realize that the Scientology teachings is not the same as the church - and thereby making it easier for people to reach for and use the philosophy regardless of what they feel or think about the church. There is brilliance in the philosophy. There is havoc in the church. I have left the church, but not Scientology itself.
