Churchhill , I think you have hit something relevant . Scientology is largely based on Hitler doctrine and Nazi ideology hidden with rhetorical methods to make it seem to be different . I have barely started to outline the case for this in the thread Hubbard and Hitler :
http://www.forum.exscn.net/showthread.php?38027-Hubbard-and-Hitler
I have to gather and coordinate more info on this and the stuff I found in an initial inquiry into eyewitnesses statements regarding Hubbard's comments about and study of Hitler . I also , prior to this developed a kind of system of spotting rhetorical methods like ethos ( claims of authority ) pathos ( appeals to emotion ) and logos ( claims of logical or scientific methodology ) and sublime writing( designed to evoke emotional responses , more extensive idea than pathos ) and logical fallacies and methods of invoking confusion to increase suggestibility ( contradiction , odd turns of phrases , unusual words , information overload , many new or redefined terms , redefining phenomena like cognitive dissonance or hypnotic symptoms and then inducing them ) and manifestations of psychological defense mechanisms , and other things intentionally placed in Hubbard's doctrine . I then sort of classify them and try to see where they came from as very often they are stolen and slightly changed , sort of like taking guns and "filing off the serial numbers" so your "customers" never know where you stole them from , or the police .
Please bear with me, I guess this is longer to write out than to do once it becomes first nature . Okay ,I found from lists by Jon Atack and Arnie Lerma you can get many source for the doctrine to compare and once you zero in on one you - if you remember thousands of Hubbard references and phrases verbatim or nearly so instantly from decades of cult indoctrination - you simply look up quotes by the person ( many sites are great as is Pinterest ) and realize where their quotes are .
Spotting Hubbard's rhetorical methods is important as they make the repackaged doctrine "seem" different to Scientologists from the original - often even if shown the original and it is almost the same words exactly . The Scientologist is caught in awe of Hubbard and cannot look at him as a mere mortal . I am not exaggerating at all - that is the cumulative effect of all the rhetoric , aka sublime writing . Extreme bias for Hubbard as exalted and divine .
So , after knocking all that defensive cloaking methodology away I found two sources that may interest Scientologists . Veda has long said Hubbard based early Scientology on Crowley's ideas and given relevant clear examples . I personally read the Book of Law and instantly recognized 41 points that are obviously placed in Dianetics and Scientology quite clearly and concluded the Crowley connection is quite true for myself .It warrants extensive delineation .
But I read about 200 Hitler quotes and a few excellent articles by others on Scientology's uncredited inspiration from Hitler and easily saw dozens of Hitler doctrine barely changed placed in Dianetics and Scientology and spread out from DMSMH to SOS to PLs and HCOBs and on and on . Spreading it out is done to hide it . The cult is always positioning enemies as Nazi like with PR to hide that the truth is the cult is repackaged Nazism with far more developed mind control and a gradual process of turning love to hate . Hubbard constantly calls things their opposite to confuse people and prevent them seeing the truth . The cult follows this tactic constantly . Think about it - a ship of slaves enslaving others - the Freewinds . A place to have miserable slaves in a frenzied panic thoroughly defraud and enslave others ? Flag - the happiest place on Earth . A method to completely enslave ? The Bridge to total freedom . It goes on and on . Look at what is emphasized . Hubbard's "understanding" ? Let us see understanding is love , compassion , wisdom and a relationship as equals based on respect - for Hubbard it is a method to via his ARC and KRC enslave and confuse as a dominant master . The exact opposite of understanding . I go into that here :

This is why Scientology must seem to condemn Nazis and support Israel - it must make even contemplating Hitler doctrine in it unfathomable because looking a tiny bit will reveal mountains of it barely hidden . It is the emperor's new clothes - you have to not trust or use your own eyes or you will see the cult is naked .
Please just look .
