During the time I've been on this message board I've noticed that the general consensus is that the benefits of scientology auditing on the lower levels seem to be similar to the effect that might be obtained through talk-therapy of some description, and that these 'gains' seem, in the main, to be only temporary.
What upsets me more than anything else is that after inner turmoil, and in spite of the dire warnings from the 'church' about 'losing one's eternity' by straying outside the fold, disaffected scientologists somehow find their way to this message board only to find certain posters writing about how wonderful L Ron Hubbard is and telling us all about the marvellous gains they've got from the spiritual and mental healing processes developed by a man who claims to have been almost run over by a freight train on the planet Venus; just the sort of serious scholar one would entrust one's mental health and well-being to.
Whether these people's 'gains' are due to the love-bombing, the peer pressure and the circle-jerking they experienced in the cult or is simply self-delusion I do not know, but in my opinion they should take their proselytising somewhere else. So ban me if you want to, I'm not changing my mind.
