It always seemed weird and interesting to me that while Scios viewed "wogs" with some disdain and condescension, that the "ex-Scientologist" was/is viewed with near total hatred.
In other words, the person who entered the candy store, looked around for awhile, finally decided that nothing sparked his interest, and turned around and WALKED OUT, was viewed far more severely than a person who never entered the candy store.
There is a historical precedent for this. When Hubbard wrote Dianetics, he seemed to have the delusion that the academic community would run to him with open arms as providing the ANSWER to all man's problems. But, they didn't. And, in the end Hubbard developed a very severe hatred of all things that refused to accept him and his creation - modern psychiatry and psychology.
I had the notion that possibly Hubbard, more than anything else, really couldn't tolerate rejection.
In some tape on the PDC Hubbard states that, and I paraphrase, "all a thetan is trying to do is mock up things and get other thetans to agree with the mock-ups". I think the statement is accurate to a certain degree, but I might rewrite it as "all the human EGO or fleeting personality is trying to do is mock up things and get others to agree with the mock ups".
A "mock up" is something or anything that you create and put out there for others to see and experience.
But, either way, Hubbard no doubt was mocking up an entire universe of ideas (the Scientology paradigm) and working VERY hard to get others to agree completely and without reservation. I have some opinions about it all being part of an intention and plan based on "magic", but that doesn't really matter for this idea.
Hubbard REALLY HATED anyone who looked at some aspect of his mock up and then decided that it wasn't interesting, useful or valid.
This resonates intensely with the idea of declared SPs. The WORSE thing any person can be, in the minds of a Scientologist, is a "declared SP" (a special-case version of the "Merchant of Chaos", and/or "anti-social personality") A person who came, checked it out, and then decided to LEAVE on their own accord, because he or she found some aspect of Hubbard or Scientology NOT to be as presented in the mock up, uninteresting or undesireable. Look at a few of the examples of suppressive acts, such as "publicly disavowing Scientology", or "holding Scientology executives or key figures up to ridicule". In other words, the HIGHEST CRIME in all of Scientology is rejecting Scientology or Hubbard, AFTER having checked it out.
Hubbard has taken this idea to an insane limit when it involves the scorning of HIS creations:
"Hell has no fury like a woman scorned".
So, that is why a person who came and went is FAR WORSE (in their minds) than a person who never checked it out in the first place.
The basis of so much of the High Crimes may very well be rooted in Hubbard's horrendous insecurity and fear of rejection. He set it up so that anyone who rejected his mock up would be consigned to the WORSE POSSIBLE category - a declared SP. A person with NO RIGHTS, who can be cheated, lied to, and harmed without ANY restrictions of doing so by his Church organization. And, OSA functions as the arm of the organization that actually goes out and actively tries to cause trouble for these various people who have pissed on Hubbard's mock up. Cripes, look what they did to Paulette Cooper!
What are these people really doing that is so wrong? They are refusing to accept Hubbard's mock up (Scientology) with the attitude and spirit that he wants.
Hubbard may have set up certain machinery, based on exact policies, that will continue to create disdain and trouble for ANY person or group who chooses to reject HIS MOCK UP. To think that so much of what exists as nonsense in Scientology (and causes real trouble for real people) may have been based on Hubbard's intense fear of rejection (a trait of a sociopath).
Just a passing idea. Just a theory.
