I did consider England less racist than America. Just looking for information.
Yes, I consider England less racist than the American Colonies.

One thing I took away from Scientology was the idea that any sort of discrimination based on someone's body type is not proper. I consider this part of my current religious belief system.
FWIW I was black one lifetime ago and Thai four lifetimes ago.

So it seems we need a new word.Actually, the term 'wog' was short for golliwog, a racist term for Indians. When they later realised how disgusting this sounded, they invented the acronym as a shore story. The term for this is a backronym, ie, it didn't used to be an acronym, but one was created afterwards to explain it.
The term 'wog' (technically an acronym, as originally it meant "worthy oriental gentleman", disrespectfully) does indeed come from the days of the British empire. We've discussed this before. It's almost inevitable that when Blubbard was reinventing himself to match the image that Stain Hill Manor conferred, he'd start using such terms. Classic Hubbard fakery and not quite getting it right.
My memory of this from college days was that 'WOGS' was an acronym from the days of the British empire which meant 'worker on government service' Because they were black and could not be seen as well at night (apparently) they were called 'ghouls' and from there comes the term Ghouli Wogs or 'golliwog'. In the UK in the 60's when casual racism was de rigeur 'golliwog' was a widely used racial slur, but also the main advertising character in a popular range of jams (or jello to you Yanks) Notice what I did there?
Starting a new thread to explore the possibility that Scien is a racist group. Over my 30 years in Scientology in America, I saw 3 African Americans. None in high positions. Let's face it....Scientology is "lily white"....LoL
What about Australia? Any Aboriginals in Scien there?
What about South Africa? Any Blacks in Scien there?
What about England?
Another point..... Could this lack of racial diversity be used against Scien some way?
