Page 5 of 6 5. An Impossible Test To PassI sometimes wondered why those who leave Scientology seem to have a renewed thirst for sociology, history or similar subjects and whether their particular inquisitiveness matched mine? That my experience with Miscavige told me that there was something he did, some mechanism he used, that was not covered in the materials of Scientology, something reminiscent of the past that I could not put my finger on. And it irritated me until I came across it one day.I was reading a book on English history and there it was. In 1644, the first year of the English Civil War, when the Puritans (Roundheads and Parliamentarians) were attempting to wrest control of the country from King Charles (Cavaliers and Royalists). Almost at once the puritan parliament gained control and began to suppress the people. Later that same year they would ban the celebration of Sea Org Day for the whole country (sorry, Freudian slip, I meant to write Christmas) because allowing people to have fun ran counter to the intention of creating slaves. Amid the struggle one Mathew Hopkins came to prominence. He grabbed some power for himself and became the self-appointed Witch-Finder General to the Parliament of England, touring Sussex, Essex and others in search of witches. His technique was very simple. Contrary to what I had always thought about witch hunts, it wasn’t the accusation that was so damning for any intended victims, as that alone was not enough to convict. Hopkins and his peers were successful due to one thing and one thing alone. They applied a test that no one could pass, and that test “proved” the subject was a witch. To be condemned as a witch and punished a person had to have the mark of a witch upon them. This commonly was a boil or other similar defect of the skin. But where no boil was found Hopkins would apply the “cut test”, drawing a very blunt blade across their skin, if they didn’t bleed (and of course they didn’t) they were guilty. Or the prick test because witches had special “dead areas” on their bodies that produced no feeling. Of course Hopkins used a special implement that caused no pain so they didn’t react and were found guilty. It is said that four hundred witches were sent to the gallows by Hopkins alone, and countless others condemned to jail. At a time when the average wage was 5 cents a day, Hopkins was paid $2.00 per witch found, a very lucrative operation. But my point is this. The two work practices that Miscavige has constantly done throughout the time of his dictatorship are inspect and review. Other than events and goofing off that’s all he does. He’s either inspecting every corner of the Int Base or he’s reviewing submissions of all kinds. When he’s not doing that he’s out and about doing inspections of one organization or another. (So as not to present a false picture, Miscavige does spend a fantastic amount of time just goofing off -- going to movies, diving, football games, car races or golf). I challenge anyone to count up the number of inspections and submission reviews he does. His actions are that of someone incessantly searching. Now if you read the Data Series you will notice that at no point does LRH say or even imply that any area or activity would be without an outpoint* of some kind or another. It’s just not written anywhere. Other yardsticks are applied such as: is an area achieving its purpose or does it have some semblance of an ideal scene? Ultimate perfection does not exist and will not exist so having some locatable outpoints in any area or activity is just condition normal for planet Earth. *(An “outpoint” in Scientology is any illogical fact or something out of place like a teddy bear in an ice cream mixer. Conversely, a pluspoint is a logical fact or something in its correct place. Any scene contains a mixture of outpoints and pluspoints. The key is where a great number of outpoints exist... there you will find the majority of them trace back to a single cause called the “Why.” The Why opens the door to a handling since by addressing the Why, you solve the problem. The Data Series reveals the fundamentals of logic and the correct use of data. Miscavige has perverted LRH's Data Series technology to create a Witch Test: when he “inspects” your area or “reviews” your submission, any discovery of an outpoint establishes you guilt. Instead of receiving $2 per witch, Miscavige is free to remain the all-powerful “Chairman of the Board” who dictates his own level of income. So while every other Sea Org member receives $46 a week -- if they get paid at all -- Miscavige receives some $2,800 a week in addition to perks, such as his own mansion at the Int Base, and posh living quarters in Clearwater, Los Angeles, England, the Freewinds, etc.; plus a fleet of cars, vans, motorcycles; a continual rain of gifts from public and staff including cameras, lenses, and every kind of gadget; an enormous wardrobe comprised of $500 Egyptian cotton shirts, expensive suits, spandex uniform pants(?); his own personal entourage including a 5-star chef, hair dresser and makeup artist who travel with him wherever he goes; plus access to ALL the millions brought in by Scientology that he can spend on private investigators to harass his enemies or in any way he wants. -- Thoughtful) Same goes for a submission (any proposal might have a locatable outpoint) but the question should be, will this proposal do the trick? Now I don’t know about you, but anyone I’ve ever talked to has agreed with me that if Miscavige was good at one thing it was walking into a room or area and sniffing out any outpoints within seconds. It was eerie, I think he could have done it blindfolded. After some years seniors even began to brief their juniors not to attempt to hide or cover up any outpoints because Miscavige would find them anyway and any attempt to hide them would just make him all the more angry (and prove you all the more guilty). Same went for written submission, man he could smell an outpoint from across the room. Again, I’m not saying the odd outpoint is anything out of the ordinary I’m just saying that Miscavige made it his business to be very good at finding them. Remember those inspections? Knowing he’s coming, perhaps standing at attention, some people doing all they could to hide the fact that they were trembling. Hoping that for once it would go well. Miscavige striding menacingly into the room, looking at you as if he knows your inner most secrets, enjoying your discomfort, confident he’ll find whatever you’re hiding, everyone hides something. He’s the big man in power, he has you and he knows it, and he relishes every minute of it. But you just want it over, the stress of the tension too much to bear. The one blessing being that it’s over quickly, as if by magic trick he goes straight to where you didn’t want him to go. Ah ha! Gotcha! Now here’s my point. Over the last twenty eight years Miscavige has found and made a lot of people (us) guilty. That has been one of the ways he has maintained his “superiority”. But it struck me when studying history that just like the puritanical witch-finder, he cheated. Miscavige applied a test no one could pass and we all missed the slight of hand, the ruse, the con, usually because it was our outpoint he’d found and rubbed our noses in and also because we were totally preoccupied at the time wondering what the sentence/punishment would be. Would it be yelling, a slap, the RPF? His inspection or review, resulting in his finding of “an outpoint,” was simply a test you could not pass. You never could. It was a trick. You were guilty before it took place. The only question was whether he was going to hang you or let it go. But in every instance one thing was for sure, you felt and knew the power that Miscavige, the self appointed Witch-Finder General, held over you. And the stress experienced during the inspection was the worst of its kind. I am not trying to make anyone feel good about some sub standard piece of work they might have produced in the past. What I am saying, based on review, is that I worked with some incredibly able people over the years in the Sea Org, I’ve not met any since who were more able, and those Sea Org members deserved better than the old witch-finder trick of a test no one could pass, which was designed to persecute not uncover real situations to handle. No inspection by Miscavige that I ever witnessed was done per any policy I could name. |

However, I dispute "It’s a fact that most Scientologists and most staff (including Sea Org) would forgive Miscavige anything, any level of destructiveness, if the purpose of Scientology was being achieved." This is one OT that won't. There is a pond at the Int Base waiting for Miscavige until the end of time. Maybe then, and only after all good beings have been set free, can he apply for readmission to the group.
Clive Rabey D/CO FLAG AO reported via email on 9/26/2009:
5,000 VIIS & VIIIS
WE HAVE PASSED THE HALFWAY POINT IN OUR QUEST TO GET TO 10,000 ON SOLO NOTS!
Rabey claims 5000, not the 6000 in your article.
Continue!
I FEEL LIKE WE ARE RUNNING OUT OF TIME AND OUR HOPE IS IN THE HANDS OF A MAD MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That my previous C/S Matteo has disappeared, that my following C/S Mark Campbel got almost blind. That the ep check was weird and getting nowhere. After I left, I realized getting informed on internet that I was right. But anyway I completed OTVII, OTVIII, L11, L12,L10 out of the church, because Scientology works and is to bekept alive.
What do you figure CST's role is?!
I think Miscavige is a puppet as all leaders and presidents are to the NWO.
Flat
I have no idea if Miscavige is working for anyone else. His destruction is of such an intensity and depth that it could be pure espionage -- he qualifies as an enemy agent under every point of HCO PL Counterespionage.
But in any event, the main target to achieve is his removal.
I know you don't know me and I understand the concept of "loose lips sink ships," but I am hoping you have a great plan to get rid of DM soon!
I have never been an admin person and even though I was on staff in the late 80's for 2 1/2 years, I don't really understand the terms for upper management, really had no interest in learning. For someone like me, this is hard to follow on who is who, like what is CO IXU? I was only doing my internship on staff at that time and wasn't involved with management in the Org.
What really got my attention while I was surfing the web was the data on "Friends of LRH" but it looks like there is not much more going on with that site. I totally understood it because that is where my interest lies, in the tech.
Your site is very informative. Another problem I have with reading some of the articles is that it seems like the writers are writing to ex-SO. So when names come up, it seems like we are to know who these people are, which of course a public has no idea.
But, as a reader will I still get the underlying facts, which of course are very upsetting to find out. DM is more than a sociopath, this is a term I would use for a wog with this type of behavior. For someone who lied his way to the top of Scientology, got rid of anyone he thought would be in his way, destroy Scientology Missions, caved in SO members with gang bang sec checking, destroy case gain and making a cases worst and degrading members of the SO by reading their auditing sessions out loud to other SO members, perverting tech... just to name a few of his deeds, is more than a sociopath.
He's solving a present time problem which hasn't in actual fact existed for the last many trillenia in most cases, and yet he is taking the actions in present time which solve that problem. The guy's totally stuck in present time, that is the whole anatomy of psychosis. (SH Spec 61. 6505C18)
Does this justify his behavior...of course not, he needs to be taken out fast. He is blocking our road out, is that the problem he is trying to solve, how to stop Being from taking the road out? Maybe, or maybe it is more sinister than that.
If someone on your site is interested in writing an article addressed to public Scientologist with buttons that would make one think, please do so and I will take it from there. The buttons would have to be hard hitting. Please make it printable for distributing.
Thanks
Whether this is due to influences from outside his own insanity, he is bringing disgrace to the whole subject.
The internet will be his undoing and I commend you on your work. I don't think he'll make it to the end of this year.
But what about the hopes for mankind?
