But suppression is one of Scientologys' specialties among its followers. According to Scientologists, all answers to life's problems lie within the teachings of Scientology's founder, the late L. Ron Hubbard.
Hubbard, a quack sci-fi writer, con man, and scam artist taught his followers that a person would be considered "out ethics" if they didn't handle those emotions. Hubbard considered these emotions weaknesses, and if a member does not handle these emotions and get them under control, then that person is labeled a "PTS" or potential troubled source. To make it even sillier, things such as colds, headaches, injuries, or any other health problems, can also cause yo to be labeled a PTS.
What if someone is exhibiting mental problems? Well, they simply don't exist according to Hubbard, and he also stated that anyone with a mental problem is a degraded being. Which really did not make a whole lot of sense to me, due to the fact that if mental problems don't exist according to Scientology, then how do degraded beings exist? *scratches head*
Simple, because Scientologists are conditioned and taught to believe and accept whatever they are told according to Hubbard's teachings, even though the contradictions are rampant.
How did Hubbard feel about homosexuals? He considered them perverts and that they should be cast from society and institutionalized.
In Hubbard's own words from HIS actual babblings from the Science of Survival, Book 1, Chapt. 13, at 90.
"Such people should be taken from the society as rapidly as possible and uniformally institutionalized; for here is the level of the contagion of immorality, and the destruction of ethics;"But then Scientology offers an alternative, from the same babblings from Science of Survival Book 1, Chapt. 13, at 89:
"The only answers would seem to be the permanent quarantine of such persons from society to avoid the contagion of their insanities and the general turbulence which they bring to any order, thus forcing it lower on the scale, or processing such persons until they have attained a level on the tone scale which gives them value."
So according to Hubbard, a person who is gay should be quarantined and that their insanities (gay) are contagious to other people in society, and they can only have value if they are processed through Scientology and then and only then they can attain a level that is on their Tone Scale. So... did Hubbard think gays should be removed from society and institutionalized? Or they should be "processed"? Well, which was is it?
Both are beyond deplorable, and how anyone can follow and pay for these teachings, makes my blood boil.
I can only imagine how John must feel about all this wacky mumbo jumbo rolling around his brain which makes no sense what so ever. As far as Kelly goes, I am a bit confused about how she is handling her grief. I think she accepts just about anything she is told through Scientology's teachings more so then John. I am not saying that she is not as distraught over her son's death, I just think that she is handling it the "Scientology way" and erasing the feelings of grief and guilt and is moving on a lot faster than John. Of course one parent being able to move on faster than the other after a child's death, is also normal. Especially for the fact that there can be a much more deep rooted connection between a son and father and mother and daughter or vise versa. It's just that Scientology's methods of "healing" are not only harmful, but down right despicable, as they charge you to "heal". Keep in mind, you are not really healing, you are blocking and suppressing your normal emotions. Continued on the next page
