The following brief outline may not be strictly correct, but it does highlight the evolution of the Church of Scientology. There can be little doubt that Hubbard did have an extreme aversion to paying taxes, and that adopting the name the Church of Scientology was a solution to this problem.
In the early days of Saint Hill, there can be little doubt that it was more of a research activity into personal development techniques with Hubbard as the leader with a team of very competent researchers. Researchers such as the late Alan Walters, the late John Galusha, our DartSmohen, our RogerB, and many others. The ones just mentioned have (had) continued their research. It was during the ‘60s that I was teaching at the University of NSW in their MBA program, and I do recall clearly that Personal Development was a hot area.
With the threat of deportation from the UK and other threats, Hubbard formed the Sea Project. It wasn’t long after this, that a perceived threat of losing control of the Church of Scientology, lead Hubbard to form the Sea Organisation and the issue of the policy letter KSW#1. This was the start of the Cult, the Church of Scientology. The cult is indeed described in HCOPLs and FOs. The “tech” as we have found, was developed mainly before the Cult was formed, and was adopted by the Cult with Hubbard claiming it was all his own work.
Why am I telling you all of this? Very simply, the FreeZone and all the breakaway groups and individuals, are not scientologists. To be a scientologist one be following all HCOPLs and a member of IAS. The FreeZone and all the breakaway groups and individuals are simply personal development consultants. They are former scientologists or ex-scientologists, they are not trying to handle mankind, they are simply helping the person in front of them.
Am I part of the FreeZone? No, however, if anyone needs help, then I am and have been, available.
There are some ESMB members, who for whatever reason, have decided that the FreeZone is some sort of extension of the the Cult. I am sick of seeing threads being derailed by these obsessive ESMB members.
If someone is a member of the FreeZone, or is getting services from a FreeZone member, that person is not a scientologist. In addition to which, the FreeZone offers those who have come out recently to experience the auditing, they were promised and never got.
We should all be doing what we can to dismantle the Cult, and not attacking allies.
Enough is Enough
