HelluvaHoax!
Platinum Meritorious Sponsor with bells on
In my experience in and out of Scientology, I have found Scientologists to be the pushiest, most annoying, know-best ADVICE-GIVERS of any people on earth. They don't even wait for you to ask for advice, they begin "handling" you the moment you walk in the room. That applies to in the org or anywhere else. Sound like a generality? Good.
But, what is the REALITY of what happens if you follow that advice, compared to the mythology?
Example? Sure, thousands of them. Let's take a classic. Money.
Let's say a person gets in Scn to handle their ruin, money. They ain't got any and worse than that, they are near bankrupt, unable to pay their bills. So, they are sent to the Registrar to help them handle that ruin. What ADVICE does the reg give them? To borrow money (because the gains they will get are guaranteed to boost their cause level, their stats and their income).
What happens if that advice is followed? Disaster. I can think of a vast number of people I personally have met who suffered that financial disaster at the mercy of Scientology's advice.
Just recently I spoke to a highly successful attorney (used to be) who asked to borrow money to buy an automobile because their luxury vehicles were repossessed not to mention the multimillion dollar house a year in default, now going thru foreclosure. But while all this was going on, this individual assured me of their unbelievable "havingness" they had attained from doing the L's. it never dawned on them that if their "havingness" was so spectacular, they would have paid me back the substantial sums they borrowed last year and were unable to repay. So, no, I didn't loan them any more.
MYTH vs FACT. The supposed prosperity they should have attained (myth) actually was the worst financial crash in their entire professional career (fact). But they don't make the connection. The wins are apparently so great that they are impervious to the realities of being a human being.
Jeez, the examples of this kind of madness are just flooding in, now that I am thinking about trusting people following the advice of Scientology and Scientologists. This is the stuff that betrayals are made of.
