fact, he agreed with just about everything I told him about
it.
Spending time with my new family has taught me that
the goals of Scientology are not monopolized. It taught
me that there are other means to achieve those goals, and
people were exemplifying that in their conduct in the
world. This lead to a curiosity about hO\v society and
philosophy and the study of the mind had evolved during
my years within the machine. I read and read and read
some more. The more I read, the more I saw Scientology
as aligning with, agreeing with, and potentially having tools
that could help \vith other bodies of \visdom and routes to
happiness and realization. I also began to see more clearly
how Scientology Inc. had alienated and segregated itself
from the rest of society, leaving the world at large with the
inclination to steer clear of Scientology.
I never preached Scientology to Monique. But, the
subject arose many times, when she would ask me about a
good quality in me that she had noticed, which I would
attribute to some aspect of Scientology. On three
occasions I used simple Scientology techniques to prevent
illnesses from taking hold of Monique' s body. This
increased her curiosity. The more she learned of
Scientology from me, the more she considered that it
aligned with what she knew to be good, healing, and
empowering.
As we learned more of each other, I found that beneath
Monique's courage, strength and \visdom she carried hurt
and despair like everyone else. She reached for auditing
and I provided it. I audited her up the Bridge, through the
Grades and Dianetics to Clear. But I audited her up the
Bridge with absolutely none of the Black Dianetics
additives that have been detailed throughout this book.
No attempts were made to have her believe anything, no
effort was made to control her behavior and life, nothing
was done to get her to view people in any other way than
the way she saw appropriate to view them. My goal was
solely to help her to recover more of herself, to assist her
146

to take off those synthetic personality jackets that didn't
belong to her inherently and were making her
uncomfortable - just as Hubbard prescribed when he
spoke directly of the actual auditing technology. Though I
had audited many dozens of people in my time within
Scientology Inc. (including virtually all of its A-list VIPs), it
was only during my auditing on the outside that I began to
truly appreciate the power of the technology of
Scientology.
There was no limit to the effectiveness of Scientology
when it was offered and delivered with the sole,
unadulterated intent to service and to help. It was
completely acceptable and understandable to people when
it was not marketed, sold, or covertly forced upon them.
It enhanced and reinforced the good lessons that people
lea.med from any number of sources, when it was not used
to dissuade people from listening to or learning from other
sources. After another three years of delivering
Scientology on the same basis to former members of
Scientology Inc. and to people new to the subject
altogether, those observations have been further validated.
Scientology works wonderfully when it integrates with
society, civilization, and the philosophies and religions of
others. Scientology haims when it seeks to segregate from
society, civilization, and the philosophies and religions of
others. If Scientologists do not learn to integrate, they will
disintegrate as a potential meaningful influence.
If corporate Scientologists cannot wrap their wits
around thinking conceptually \vi.th the subject and
integrating with society, but instead feel they must
continue to act robotically, only according to literal
conunands of L. Ron Hubbard, then a good start for them
would be to aspire to live literally by this central tenet of
Hubbard's: "A being is only as valuable as he can serve
others."
If one truly attempted to live up to that maxim, he or
she might begin to see the light. To Sdentologists who can
think conceptually and have not cut themselves off from

September 26, 2009 7 Comments
I am confident that my friends who saw me evolve over the past couple
years will attest that what I posted in February on my little web page was
true. Particularly, the following description outlining my intentions and
objectives:
"A lot of folks seem to be suffering from the inculcated idea that once they
depart or cease to slavishly follow every arbitrary dictate they
automatically forfeit any spiritual gains they may have attained along the
road. Natively conscientious as most beings are, such an evaluation can
begin a pernicious dwindlng spiral of self-invalidation and unhappiness. I
understand this phenomenon and the internal dichotomies extant within
the organization that bring it about. In the process of reversing the decline
in myself and in others certain lessons were learned that might be of some
assistance to those who have experienced the same.
"I offer a simple program of rehabilitation of previously recognized abilities
and education on universal truths and principles of spiritual growth. I do
not offer a substitute for Scientology nor am in competition with the
Church. I am only offering to share all the skills I have learned - from a
wide variety of sources - to help those in need who once formally
participated in Scientology but who now hold no hope nor intention of ever
seeking help from the Church. //
(
I was on no mission to replace the Church or even the Church leadership.
It was purely an offer to help those who had made the determination that
they would never again seek help from the Church of Scientology; for
whatever reason.
Within days of that posting I caught wind of Miscavige efforts to pull the
plug on that offer of help. Church informants reported on some of those
who initially reached out to me. Those people were intercepted and
offered large incentives to turn on me, turn over all communications with
me, and to return under the control of the Church. When I did not attempt
to compete for those souls, adhering to my word that I wasn't interested
in those even harboring a desire to remain under the control of Miscavige's
outfit, Miscavige had OSA send informants to try to infiltrate my home and
life.
What I had posted was not a threat in any way, shape or form to
Miscavige's fiefdom. It was never intended to be competion. I meant what
I explicitly stated about the category of people I was reaching out to.
People that the Miscavige regime had zero interest in, other than
apparently, in keeping in a dormant, sleeping, effect state.
His reaction confirmed what I believed to be true about Miscavige: the
very concept of anyone helping someone - particularly for no motive other
than purely the desire to help one's fellows - was so abhorrent to him it
caused irrational impulses to stop and destroy. "Helping others is an
activity which drives the antisocial personality nearly berserk." - LRH
Since that time a lot of water has passed under the Bridge. That includes a
lot of Miscavige generated toxic waste. That also includes a lot of pure,
clean and beautiful outpouring of theta from folks who fit the exact
description set forth in the italicized text above.
Several people have challenged me to demonstrate that I am able to take
over Miscavige's position or to create an organization mirroring his. I do
not have any desire to do either. Some people have criticized me of
irresponsibility for exposing the truth about Miscavige's church without
offering all the bells and whistles of Church membership they find
comforting or necessary. People who are in it for the bells and whistles
probably ought to stay parked right where they are. Ultimately, they will
be served nothing but bells and whistles.
(
(
I have learned quite a lot since February. First, there are far more people
who consider themselves Scientologists, or at least use what they learned
from Scientology in their every day lives, who fit the description of having
no intention of ever again being affiliated with the Church than I initially
thought was possible. Second, many of those people fear retribution if
they publicly discuss their feelings on the subject. Third, many of those
people lead unhappy lives because they miss the ability to share
community with others of similar philosophic disposition; a subset of that
group, may have also suffered financially by having to cut ties with
business networks they nurtured for many years. Fourth, some portion of
that public are ill physically and spiritually because they have dwindled
down to apathy and below and found refuge with the only ex-Church
member forums that have existed - ones that make anonymity and hiding
a virtue, and make criticism an end, rather than a means to achieve any
improved state of affairs.
When I started blogging more and more people contacted me about
helping them to reverse the spiral they found themselves on. In order to
cope with such an overwhelming number of individuals, I began simply
connecting former Church members up with similar thinking ones in
proximity to one another. Lo and behold, such people began to report to
me truly phenomenal phenomena. Here is a list of the types of things they
have reported more than once:
1. A rehabilitation of states attained in Scientology by simply having
someone acknowledge with reality what he or she has been
through.
2. An enhancement in states attained through Scientology by now
receiving regular acknowledgment of theta phenomena that up to
that point they had no one to share with who could truly understand
and appreciate it. Sadly, many folks have reported being invalidated
by Scientology public and staff for such origins when they were
affiliated with the Church.
3. Feeling de-pts'd by virtue of feeling some strength in numbers -
even if the increase went from one to two - and all that comes with
that.
4. Physical disabilities healing. Not a bit surprising to me. In the
Church's "Freedom" magazine in response to the St Pete Times
Truth Rundown series, my former wife attributed a long list of
physical problems I had the year I left the SO. It was one of the few
(
(
relatively accurate statements of that scandal sheet. All of those
ailments rapidly resolved upon my cutting all connection to the SP.
5. Great artistic, career, and or business opportunities suddenly
appearing, attributed by people reporting them to beginning to
socially network again with newly discovered friends sharing their
philosophy.
6. The increase in frequency of OT perceptics and abilities.
I don't have ultimate answers to questions of how to set up widespread,
uniform delivery of the tech, nor how to administer whatever form that
might some day take. I don't even purport to have the background,
training or experience to answer such questions.
I do know that I have been working on an Ethics paradigm - sometimes
referred to as Ethics Program Number One. I do know that I have seen
many people rise from apathy and below to 4.0 and above on the Tone
Scale as they become de-PTSed from Miscavige's Church. Most of those
people never received a formal session nor even had the opportunity (yet)
to meet in person. The several I have met in person tend to confirm my
estimate that most folks reporting incredible gains by handling the
suppression in their lives are not exaggerating.
I am of the view that those phenomena listed as 1-6 above have been
suppressed in Miscavige's Church. I do not have the slightest hesitation in
continuing to facilitate more free, independent Scientologists experiencing
what appears to be the miracles attainable with the subject when studied
in the fashion Hubbard originally advised it be done. That is with a keen,
critical, and independent mind. That increases the ability to as-is. Isn't that
what the entire aim of the subject is, to increase people's ability to as-is?
Having operated with this viewpoint, I have been pleasantly surprised to
learn of another natural, positive byproduct of as-ising lies with truth and
making it safe for the well intentioned to congregate and share ideas. I
have learned that there are a number of very capable folks who are
approaching the subjects of tech and admin in the same fashion I have
tried to approach Ethics. They are not motivated by money. They are not
motivated by fame. They are motivated purely by making it possible for
others to experience gains similar to their own.
I believe that the behavioralism, twisted moralism, materialism and
induced fear of disclosure of confidences practiced as standard operating
(
(
(
procedure in Miscavige's church are the reverse of Scientology. Those
practices increase mental mass, and convince a person he needs to
become a slave in order to become free. All too often, rather than increase
one's ability to as-is, it results in people who specialize in creating mental
mass for others (guilt, fears, self-invalidation, and for those who have
been to Int for any substantial period, actual text book engrams).
People who have simply exercised their abilities to be there and
comfortably confront when faced with Church intimidation tactics - and
not allowed themselves to be drawn into flash fights and the resultant
creation of ridges - have as-is'd the invaders. That has happened most
frequently when the person being targeted by the Church has the comfort
of knowing he has people who are behind him or her with unconditional
love. It is quite remarkable.
I am fairly certain that if a decent percentage of independent
Scientologists stand up, identify themselves, and freely associate with like-
minded friends in the light of day at least three things will happen:
a. Many individual lives will regain meaning. Many more lives still will
reap the gains from each of us who independently and freely use
Scientology with no other motivation than to help others reach
higher states of beingness.
b. Scientology (the subject and community) will experience a
renaissance within society at large.
c. Miscavige's church will be forced to either radically reform by
reversing its suppressive operating basis or face its inevitable
demise (note the intransitive is used; it is not because of anything
that you or I will do to it that will cause it other than being their
comfortably - it will be a self-inflicted fate).
At this point, at this Ethics stage, I am advocating that independent
thinking Scientologists think hard about being proud of exercising their
independence. That they make themselves known and use the title
"Scientologist" without shame or embarrassment. That they create
community with other independent Scientologists and make it that much
safer for those people to get their strength up and flourish. To the extent
we tip toe around imaginary egg shells, we are PTS. We cripple our own
(
(
ability to as-is. If we walk tall, we rehabilitate one another's abilities to as-
is. The Lord knows that this world could use some more of that.

After watching Clint Eastwood's latest mas terpiece Hereaft er last night I was inspired to open a new
foru m. I highly recommend Hereafter to every Scientologist. There are many parallels in the
experience of the protagonist (Matt Damon) to Scicnt ologists and other spiritualists who perceive and
act in the theta universe. The built-in prejudice and violent denial reaction to matters spiritual in this
civilization was well portrayed . Doesn't ex ist ? Then, why were Mose)' and I surveilled during the movie
and all the way home? Contempl ating the absurdi ty of such expensive spying at such an innocuous
event , made me recognize that ultimately, this is why Miscavige s pends millio ns in att empts to thwart
us. It is our r ecognition of the thet a universe, our agreement to not invalidate perception of it, and our
use of Scientology to make it more real and permanent.
Hereafter illustrates how lonely and desperate li fe can become for those who recognize the spiritual in
an environment that willfully remains ignorant of it. It prompted me to realize the corporate church's
war has had its toll. When I am do ing what I do fo r a liYing, counsel Scicnt ologists with Scientology, and
I am in communication with those peo pl e to whom I apply Scientology, magical t hings happen quite
routinely between us. Telepathic communications, effortl ess postulate realizat ion, premonitions of
great acc uracy, the power of ARC over great distances, you name it. At bottom I att ribute it to
validation through recognition of theta and the theta univ erse as t ra nscendent to the physical universe.
Mos t importantly, the movie artistically represented how as-isness occurs when a person seemingly
alone with what the non-s piritually inclined write off as ethereal, nutty ideas unites with one or more
others who see wha t he sees.
See the mov ie, please.
In t he meantime, il.l osey and I arc preparing to move into new q uart ers down t he canal from the Shac k.
We arc doing so in o rder to be better prepared to deli\ er. Since the place is a little larger than a shack,
and since it has a distinct all white ex terior, and because South Texas is 65% latino - and once was
Mexico until the US pulled off what Pr esi dent Ulysses S Grant called the most unjust land gr ab in the
history of the world -we have named her Casablanca Tejas (original Spanish spelling fo r Texas),

As a coincidence, what goes on at Casablanca is much like the classic motion picture by the same name.
All manner ofrefugee, patriot, spy, and counter spy find neutral territory by which to make safe
passage to freedom in Casablanca. In addition to delivery of services we'll cont inue to do what we can to
get Lazlos on their flights. Besides, we all know now that I've been known to smoke and drink like Bogie.
Ultimately, in addition to the playful nature of such titles, there is a long term purpose for dealing in
such parables publicly. This will become abundantly clear later this week.
There is much to do on a number of fronts, offensive and defensive, to assure the survival and
expansion of independence. And so Moving On Up A Little High el' will continue to expand. Many
disparate viewpoints and even reasonable amounts of antagonism will continue to be entertained. But,
in order to keep my focus - and others similarly inclined to keep theirs - and never again lose site of
what the real purpose of this movement is, I have created a new blog: Casablanca Tejas, at
http://casablancate jasmyblog.wordpress.com/ . That forum is dedicated to people with a strong reality
on the theta universe. I won't be allowing trolls, antagonists and materialist commentary. It is
dedicated to the spiritual, wins in attaining that with Scientology and enhancing that with continued
study of wisdoms.
Welcome to Casablanca!

Reverse Scientology: Hypnotism
Posted on September 26, 2010 by martyrathbun09 I 372 Comments
A lot of people have noted that Misca\'ige's e\ents and speeches are taking on more of an hypnotic sounding tone,
and yet his sheep don't seem to notice. There are also many comments here wondeiing aloud how on ea1th kool
aid drinkers can keep compulsively drinking kool aid in the face of the abuses escalating within the church. I
believe the following may shed a bit of light on those concerns.
David Miscavige developed a technique that he called "rolling thunder" for his event presentations. Mike Rinder
and others who worked on event s over time can describe this far more competently than me since I was not so
intimately involved in the event evolutions as they were. But I know this much, Rolling thunder consisted of a
series of "facts" and "stats" of the church - all exaggerated, and some made up out of whole cloth - being
forcefully communicated to the audience and accented with overwhelming and building music, lights and
graphics being flashed in the recipients' faces - until the climax of an "applause line" is reached. "Rolling
thunder" is considered achieved if, and only if, the entire crowd is swept to their feet in adoring, accepting, and
rapturous AGREEMENT with the "applause line" of the speaker. Miscavige was obsessed with ensuring his
speeches in pa1ticular had several "rolling thunder" moments. Over the years, he weeded out the involvement of
other speakers in the events until over the past few years there has only been one, David Miscavige. When you
add to the equation that virtually all church of Scientology staff have been forced, coerced and conditioned into
immediately and savagely punishing the slightest indication of "doubt" about the infallibility of David Miscavige
that manifests itself with any church staff or public, you've got a pe1fect recipe for disaster. That is, mind
controlling hypnotism on a mass scale.
While reading a section of the Phoenix lecture - Axioms, Pait Ill, on the s ubject of how Scientology can be
reversed to effectuate hypnotism - all of the above came back to me. I believe the following passage sheds light
on what Scientology public have been subjected to, increasingly, for the past twenty years in very regular,
predictable intervals.
The whole of existence, actually, is ru11 very much like an hypnotic trallce. How do you hyptnotize somebody?
Well, you get them to agree with you. Alld then you get them to agree with you a little bit more. Oh, most
people think that it's dolle by watches 01 something or other. It's llOt dolle that way. It's done ill a very
interesting way.
I don't know much aboutWestem hypnotism. I myself studied hypllotism in the East and when I came over to
America again, I wondered what 011 earth this stra11ge practice was that these people were practicillg alld
calling hypnotism. Because it wasn't even vaguely what is taught ill the East to induce hw1ces. It's quite
remarkable that hypnotism is inducible on small 01 large groups.
Now, the worse off a group is, which is to say, the less commu11icatio11 they have, achtally, the more

commu11icatio11 can befoJ'cecl upon them. And you can get a form of hypnotism there. But the interesting
thing is that they must have been prepared by an enormous number of agreements before they got into that
state. In other words, somebody else prepared them, so they didn't care who they agreed with after a while.
Anybody in a uniform walks up to a soldier, if that uniform has a higher rank on, the soldier will obey them.
Well, this is a farm of hypnotism.
Now, you can take an audience and simply get them to agree with you. And you get them ta agree more and
more and more and more and more and the next thing you know - and, by the way, when I say 'agree with
you', I mean you could get them to agree first that you were simply standing there.
And then, the next thing that you could get them to agree to is the fact that they were listening to you. And then
you would give them a few little things 011 which they would agree with. And the next thing you know, you
could tell them that the world was onffre and the audience would rush out to find out. Or maybe they just sit
there and bum. It's quite interesting. But you could move it out that way.
Now, what is this all about? Does that mean that anybody bringing about an agreement would bring about
hypnotism? Oh no. The reason why in Scientology we do not bring about a hypnotism, even by Opening
Procedwe by Duplication - every Case V, that's had this run on him claims, it's a way to induce a trance - but
every single one of the tenets of Scientology could be reversed and with a bad intention, and so forth, could be
worked out in the opposite direction.
We are undoing the agreements which people have been making far 76 trillion years. Only we're undoing
them, so this makes themfreer and freer and freer.
Now, show you this fellow on the stage who simply gets the audience to agree and agree and agree and ag1ee
and then tells them the place is on fire. Oh? He isn't really going in the direction of making them freer, is he?
His i11te11tionfor this is entirely different.
It isn't that intention is above agreement. It's that consideration is always above agreement. And he is trying
to work them into a situation where they will accept what he says without question. We're not interested in
Scientology, in anybody accepting what we say without question. We ask them to question it. We ask them to
please look at the physical universe around you, please look at people, at your own mind and understand,
thereby, that what we are talking about happens to be actual. This is the series of agreements. These aJ'e. They
aren'tjustfancy ideas.
Let us also consider the following facts. First, over the past thirty years the church's Bridge has altered to consist
on average of more than fifty percent security checks. And those security checks are done within an imposed
mores that considers the highest clime one can commit is to question the infallibility of David Miscavige.
Second, over those same thirty years church staff have been pressured and coerced into immediately, and
ruthelessly, punishing anyone who might manifest the slightest doubt about the veracity of the utterances of
Miscavige. Third, RTC has been programmed to immediately target and destroy the life of anyone who dares
report on false reports delivered in events by Miscavige. Those are people who actually observed arrogantly
announced Miscavige "facts" to not in fact exist in the physical universe. Fourth, church policy has evolved that
has any member seriously punished for exposing himself or herself to any source of information (by personal
contact, by way of media, or the internet) that does not agree with Miscavige's official state of Scientology

I think it takes more to come out of agreement than it does to go into agreement. Even those who
left the church cling to many of the agreements we shared while inside. Which brings me to a
point.
Why do some leave when others do not, given the same level of exposure to agreement/hypnosis
overtime.
I have always felt that it takes someone getting mistreated in order for the light to come on in their
head. Then all the agreements are put on hold . They are not done away \ ~ t h , just given a
temporary backseat.
The mistreatment can be any number of things and we all know what it was that sent us
individually out the door or into this blog or some other venue.
And to the extent the agreements we had built up over the years are still in force, such as "the tech
works", LRH was a genius", "managment sucks", etc, we are still willing to beat those drums. The
agreements are still there.
My point is people, especially public scientologists, "look" at this blog or at the st.pete times a1ticle
or AC360 AFfER something happened. They will still have their agreements for the most pmt and

The repo1t you will read tonight is living proof of the validity of a ve1y real concern that I expressed a year ago.
It was the prima1y reason I granted an interview with the SP Times. They did not print my reason, perhaps
concerned it was too inflammatory. I told CNN too; and they too were apparently afraid to run it. Fact of the
matter is, I only gave the interviews at thoses times because I had learned to what depths OM's house of
horrors had slid since I had left. After speaking to Tom Devocht, Mike Rinder and other (whose names must
still be protected) about what occured at Int after I had left , I was gravely concerned lives might be in danger. I
told the Times ana CNN, ana I'll tell you right now, I spoke in the ho es of preventing what I was
concerned might dete1iorate into a Jonestown situation. I predicted that, left to his own devices, OM could very
well become homicidal (in fact all"eady was, but it might grow to overcome any restraint he was able to muster
from fully dramati zing it). I doubted that he would have the common decency to do himself in to protect
others; but instead would go down in a hail of bullets in response to his own hail murdering as many
"treasonous bastards" as he could take down. In my ~ e w tonight's rep01t confirms my concerns. Think about
the Wild Animal Reaction Of The Missed Withhold. That is understandable, pa1ticularly when one knows - as I
do and he does - what we are b1inging to light over the next several months. Now, consider that OM planned
out today's events, with lengthy and meticulous b1iefings for days in advance. Think about the mind that would
so act . I've studied Koresh and Jones. They were Boy Scouts compared to Miscavige at similar stages in their
careers.

ARC is sacred

Thanks to Old Auditor I now have a brand new set of the Management Series volumes. Look what jumped off
the pages of the first PL in the first volume!
LRH from An Essay On Management (g January 1951):
He who holds the power of a11 orga11ization is that person who holds its co111111unicatio11 li11es a11d who is a
crossroad of co1nn1unications. Therefore, in a true group, conununications and co1111nunications lines should
be a11d are sacred. Co111111unicatio11 lines are sacred. They have been considered so i11stinctively since the oldest
ages of 111a11. Messe11gers, heralds a11d riders have bee11 the object of the greatest care eve11 betwee11 combata11ts
011 e11MESTmissio11s. Priesthoods hold their power through posti11g or being co111111u11icatio11 relay poi11ts
between gods and nten. And eve111nost governn1ents consider cults sacred. Communication lines are sacred
a11d who would interrupt or pervert a co111n!llnication li11e withi11 a group is entitled to gmup death - exile.
A11d that usually happens as a natural course of events. Comn11micatio11 lines are sacred. They 111ust 11ot be
used as cha1111els of viciousness a11d entheta. They nlllst not be twisted or perverted. They must not be glutted
with 111a11y words a11d little mea11ing. They must 11ot be severed. They must be established wherever a
communication line see111s to iuant to exist or is needed.
Any 111mwgement of anything ca11 raise tone and efficiency by establishing a11d maintaining zealously, as a
sacred trust, com111u11ication lines through all the group andfro111 outside the group illto the group a11d from
in the group outside the group.

The most vital li11es of a group me not operational lines, although this may appear so to management. They
are the theta lines between any theta and the group and the goal maker and the group. Management that
tampers with these lines in any way will destroy itself. These actually have tension and explosion i11 them. It is
as inevitable as nightfall that these lines will explode, when tampered with, at the exact point of the tampering.
This is a natural law of communication lines.
A line is as dangerous to tamper with as it has truth in its channel. It is safe and even preserving of a line to
cut it when it contains en theta. Fol' example when a true line is wt, it charges a little powe1 into the cutter and
he has autlwrityfor a moment thereby. But it is only the authol'ity of the cut line. If the line is thus made to
perish, the cutter loses his authority. If there is much truth in that line, it does not give authol'ity to the cutter,
it explodes him.
A group has the right to exile anyone it discovers to be guilty of tampering with any communication line.
A management which will pel'vert an affinity 01 sever one may gain a mo111enta1y power but the laws here are
the same as those relating to communication and an affinihJ tampered with will lower the tone of a group.
A management which will pervert 01 suppress a reality, 1w matter how "reasonable" the act seems, is acting in
the direction of the destruction of a group. It is not what management thinks the group 01 the goal maker
should know, it is what is tl'ue. A pri111a1yft111ction is the discovery and publication, in the briefestfor111 which
will admit the whole force of the data, the 1eality of all existing cil'cumstances, sittrntions and personnel. A
management which will hide data, even in the hope of sparing someone's feelings, is operati11g toward a
decline of the group.
A hue group must have a management which deals in affinity, realih.J and com111tmicatio11 a11d any gmup is
totally within its rights, whe11 a full and reasonable examination discloses management in fault of perverting
or cutting ARC, of slaughtering, exiling or suspending that management. ARC is sacred.

Know your rights
Posted on August 26. 2010 by martyrathbun09 I 220 Comments
To: Executives and staff of Int, Gold, OSA, etc
Know your rights.
I know you have heard horrific things about how former staff who left the church with evidence in their
possession will be prosecuted. You should know that that is propaganda.
That propaganda is directed to one public and one public alone: YOU.
And it is FALSE PROPAGANDA.
The intent of the propaganda is the same intent behind forcing you to periodically sign five year employment
contracts which make you think you have signed your rights to free speech away.
The purpose is to keep you in a state of electrified fear of ever even thinking a negative thought about David
Miscavige and his rein of terror, let alone ever doing anything about it.
Now, let's get to those rights of yours that you probably don't know about.
In the United States of America, and in most civilized nations, one cannot sign away his or her freedom of
speech. The fiats of David Miscavige do not trump the Bill or Rights nor the Universal Declaration of Human
Rights. Miscavige's bloviating does not even have the slightest effect upon settled California case law.
So, no matter what you have signed or been told to the contra1y, recognize it has no effect upon the follo\-ving
settled law:
If you harbor intentions to leave, and you have a reasonable belief that the church might pursue you in order to
coerce you to return to some form of environment where you lack the freedom of movement, speech, or
association you lrnve the right to take with you evidence that suppo1ts that belief.
If you believe people who were once in your position, who have already left, are being attacked by the church in
order to coerce them into giving up any of their rights to free movement, speech or association, you hm e the
right to take with you evidence of infringement of such rights.
Know your rights I Moving On Up a Little Higher http:// markrathbtm. word press .conv20 I 0/08/ 26/know-your-rights/
(
(
If you are leaving because you reasonably believe you have witnessed crimes against persons or acts that have
denied people their God-given rights to freedom of speech, movement, or association then you are \\ithin your
rights to take with you e\idence of those crimes and/or denials of Civil and Human Rights.
If any doubt exists as to whether you will be protected should you choose to exercise these rights, I personally
guarantee you_Qrotcction. The legal minds available to protect your rights on the outside make Misca\ige's
overpaid criminal cover-up artists look like the pikers they arc.
Miscmige is less and less seen by the average staff member because he is figuratively burrowing himself
fmther and fmther into his Hitleri.an bunker. He has good reason to choose his ground hog strategy.
His rein of terror is under intense scrntiny by people who make their lives' work to end effective slavery and
mafia-like intimidation tactics by dictators.
Which leads to the next bit of propaganda you would be ill-served to heed. That is the notion being broadcast
\\ithin that Misca\ige is being hunted by the forces of evil on the planet. Quite the contra1y, those investigating
him fitmly hold to the view that Scientology is a religion entitled to its own protections under the First
Amendment to the United States Constitution.
The fact of the matter is the biggest threat to the ,;ability of those protections for the future is Misca,ige's
continuous crimes committed in the name of the religion.
Think about 'it.
Or, if you cannot confront thoughts along those lines, tty not to think about it.
