The Indie 500
Monday, 22 February 2010 13:29

Your life belongs to you. Not to corporate Scientology, a self-appointed dictator/sciopath, or his PTS sycophants. Let's move Scientology toward normalcy by ending the heavily-abused practice of enforced disconnection. Get your name on the list, be one of the first 500 indie Scientologists and take your life back. The ranks of indie Scientologists are growing daily. With enough names on the list we will break the back of disconnection, not because of this list, but because of the power of your communication lines being restored.

Names appear in random sequence. As an independent Scientologist you are your own leader.

ANYONE WHO USES ANY PART OF SCIENTOLOGY TECH, even if other parts are not true for you, is welcomed to be on this list. LRH said what's true for you is what's true for YOU. A person who blindly accepts everything is a robot not a Scientologist. Anyone who retains the right to their own integrity belongs on this list. Freezoners are naturally invited.

[Wisened One]

I'm an Ex and am happy to be on the Ex-List.

But I do not fault nor ostracize those who wish to continue practicing scn (or a version/parts of it, etc.).

My biggest and main thing is to stop the corruption and abuse in the Co$ as a start...trying to make someone stop believing certain beliefs and concepts, etc..that's another thing, entirely.

From: From Scientology-Cult as of 07/19/10 - The Indie 500:

That is not really a July 19 (yesterday) copy. A week ago Steve added (at my request) a Yawnguy link to my entry. The actual list now includes:

84. Paul Adams, Class V, HPCSC, OT IV, 23 years in the SO, www.yawnguy.com

Perhaps it may interest some to know that the idea behind the list of those who had left the CofS was originated a lot closer to home than its current usage would suggest.

The original idea was to post a list of those willing to identify themselves as having left the CofS in protest over its crimes, corruption and abuses. It was intended originally to inform still-in scientologists of where their friends stood on the matter and why they had chosen to leave the CofS.

As a still-in scientologist scanned through page after page of names and faces they were bound to encounter someone (or many people) that they actually knew personally. The list was to include photos, Training Level, Case Level and CofS bona-fides etc. This, it was proposed, would give them cause to think.

It was (and probably still is) a good idea from that perspective.

I think that was another list, a list of those who have spoken out about the CofS, I'm on that list but not this one.

Hell, I'll go on this list too, I looked up a word in the dictionary yesterday.

 

[Alanzo]

I think that was another list, a list of those who have spoken out about the CofS, I'm on that list but not this one.

Hell, I'll go on this list too, I looked up a word in the dictionary yesterday.

I ran out of toilet paper last week.

Can I be on the list?

 

[Sign of Success]

Humm...
What about a list of those who are still in?

I guess it will take thousands of gigabyte to post it

 

[Royal Prince Xenu]

By $cn's own definition, I cannot be classified as an "independent Scientologist". Although there may be some bits and pieces that I use here and there, they only make up part of a huge stock-pile of mixed practices.

 

[Voltaire's Child]

Fluffy recognizes a name here & NOT from any postings

If not already listed, these people should perhaps be added to the "Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out" because they have left the official Church of Scientology. That is for others to decide.

I'm making a separate thread because the list raises some separate and distinct issues.

TL;DR summary of interesting points emphasized below:

1. "As an independent Scientologist you are your own leader." This may signal a move away from rigid, top down hierarchy and a fundamentalist, deductive and text-bound ideology. The proof will be in the conduct and behavior.
   
   .
2. "ANYONE WHO USES ANY PART OF SCIENTOLOGY TECH, even if other parts are not true for you, is welcomed to be on this list. LRH said what's true for you is what's true for YOU. A person who blindly accepts everything is a robot not a Scientologist." This may also signal a move from hierarchy, rigidity, and KSW No. 1 to a more flexible, "use the tools available," "professional judgment" view of the tech that appeared to exist in the 1950s and early 1960s before the creation of the Grade Chart and KSW No. 1 in 1965. Again, the proof will be in the conduct and behavior.
   
   .
3. At least a partial rejection of the practice of "enforced disconnection." However, the phrase, "heavily-abused practice of enforced disconnection" disturbingly seems to imply that a policy of "enforced disconnection" that is not "heavily abused" may be acceptable.
   
   .
4. "Freezoners are naturally invited."

A final observation. Given the total number of official, "on-lines" Scientologists in the world, the current number of 126 independent Scientologists is not insignificant. This is particularly true given the training and auditing levels of the people on the list, and their time and effort investments in Scientology. My guess is that DM is not pleased.

WWP Thread: List of Independent Scientologists; Doctrinal differences

OMG! I recognize one of the names on here... I won't say which one. But she was one of the biggest ronbots and although basically a nice woman, still, she'd once phoned me (when we were both still in) about a situation I had with CofS, just SCREAMING at me for not obeying the party line. Just fucking SCREAMING. It reminded me of a couple massively scathing PMs I later got from a critic who'd been my friend and thought she was "helping" me. This chick I see on this list acted the same way. It caused me to think this chick would NEVER stop drinking the koolaid. I can google her. I've done it before. I know she's findable. Should I write her, ya think???

 

[Voltaire's Child]

I just emailed the person. I *know* this person on the list is she. Got to be. This should be interesting.

 

[Voltaire's Child]

Heard from person but only to ask if I'm the one she knew in this town. I wrote back "Yep".

Will be interesting to see if she writes back and what she says.

 

[HelluvaHoax!]

Hell, I'll go on this list too, I looked up a word in the dictionary yesterday.

I disconnected from an SP (Ron).

Please include my name.

 

[Voltaire's Child]

Yep. Exchanged sevl emails with the person. Not happy with the cult but still likes Scn as ology. See, they even piss off their most devoted adherents...

 

[Smurf]

Now they're sliming Marty's wife...

[NCSP]

Now they're sliming Marty's wife...

http://whoismoniquerathbun.com/

That site won't load for me. Is that Marty's current wife or his ex-wife?

EDIT: Never mind. Wikipedia is my friend. I got kind of excited for a sec that one of the David Miscavige Fan Club (as seen on Anderson Cooper 360) got out.

 

[Panda Termint]

There is no depth to which OSA will not sink.
Fuck you OSA, fuck you and the Cult you rode in on.

 

[Royal Prince Xenu]

There is no depth to which OSA will not sink.
Fuck you OSA, fuck you and the Cult you rode in on.

Would that be a Mitsubishi Cult?

 

[Panda Termint]

 

[Natalie]

This is such a low for OSA. It only makes the cult look bad. They must be taking PR tips from Charlie Sheen.

 

[me myself & i]

This is some kind of silly "feel good" exercise for accumulating as many people as possible - on a list - who've been tricked into identifying themselves as "Independent Scientologists."

Well, do you brush you teeth? Or maybe you don't brush your teeth but just think that you do? Hey! Then you're a Scientologist!

Yay!!!!!

I believe it gets worse, or is worse (than a silly 'feel good' exercise) Veda. For the simple reason in Spiritual affairs/considerations *Self-Identification* is Senior to all other affairs/considerations. As a practical matter any word (or words) used to follow the universal & unconditioned self-announcement, *I Am*, is unwittingly taken to being equal to the actual presence announcing itself. Which it is not. Thus we have (& see) religious absurdities trumping human decencies owing to individuals defining themselves as ______, fill in the blank, over and over again. Ad infinitum I dare say.

In other words individuals of any religious camp, company or persuasion that assume their fundamental Self-Identity of Being, as being I Am *that*, tend to unconsciously consign themselves to a life of conditional servitude to the furtherance of the intentions aims and or goals of that camp, company or persuasion, at the profoundly steep cost of their own Individualized & Unconditioned Reality of Being (i.e. their Higher Prior Being).

Being harmless at one level and insidious at another, at the same time.

Of course such gross Self mis-identification is not confined to the regulatory realms of religion alone, but it is here where such fundamental spiritual error rears its ugly head, in terms of a subtle (or not so subtle) absence of human decency, kindness, tolerance et al.

While KSW is a publicly known (or knowable) so-called spiritual policy, at present, a KISW policy is just around the corner, or just under the covers.
