My reaction to Milestone Two has mainly been a "Milestone who?" They are already dying off, like all Scientology off-shoots, and their recent spat of attacks against others are their effort to gasp some last desperate breaths. No big surprise there, because it's in the nature of Scientology to destroy itself and anything connected with it. That's what following Hubbard's policies inevitably leads to, no matter how good your intentions are. One would think in looking at how Hubbard spent the last years of his life, that being a living embodiment of Scientology does not bring you happiness and joy, much less put you into a state of "cause over life". What a joke the whole thing has turned out to be.
The conspiracy theories are so sad. I know how it feels to live life thinking that those things are true, because I used to be there too. It makes one very paranoid and angry. Having done a lot more study and a lot more analysis, I came to realize that Hubbard's conspiracies were utter drivel and the product of a sick mind. And it was mainly because of that sickness that Hubbard implanted his organization with the cancer we call the Office of Special Affairs. I wonder where Scientology would be right now if Hubbard hadn't done that.
There's plenty in the world to be angry about and even some things to be paranoid about, but government conspiracies against Scientology are not one of those things. Hubbard himself stated emphatically that the cause of Scientology's travails was always internally created, never because of what the "enemy" was doing. And he was absolutely right. It's doing just fine destroying itself all on its own.
