I've been in since 1965. Things changed a great deal. Many now in the FZ have commented that they
followed Scn but the CO$ changed.
Which is what my prior post stated.
The point you overlook (or else can't seem to grasp) is that the evidence clearly demonstrates that for hubbard scientology was always about him. From the beginning he slapped his name on everything, demanded attention as founder (if not outright adulation), and creamed off income from the church. It's a pretty strong indicator that for hubbard he was in it primarily to promote himself.
The same is not true for others who adopted scientology for its perceived utility.
It took hubbard's creation of the Sea Org ('67) and another 15 years (Mission Holder's '82) finally to make his "vision" of a cult centered on fulfilling his every wish take hold completely in throughout the larger church.
