Sec Check Blog: Exposing Scientology Front Groups (and other stuff)

[CommunicatorIC]

Scientology front groups are expanding outside the United States.

I've been trying to keep up with the new Sec Check blog, and rather than post a number of new threads, and due to the fact the blog is hard to fair use excerpt because the entries are so short (usually a picture and a line or two of explanation), I thought I'd post a conclusion.

The anecdotal evidence indicates that Scientology front groups are expanding outside the United States, and particularly (but not exclusively) in the area sometimes referred to as the Third World.

It appears that in may places, and again particularly in the Third World, Scientology is positioning itself as standing against drugs, and in favor of human rights, happiness and morality.

Recent Sec Check posts include:

The Way to Happiness Caracas

Youth for Human Rights Canberra

The Way to Happiness – Guadalajara

Narconon Youth Football in Seville Spain

Narconon Tijuana Games

Drug Free World Indonesia

Foundation for a Drug Free World South Africa

Sumy, Ukraine

Foundation for a Drug Free World – Dominican Republic

Re: Scientology front groups are expanding outside the United States

I wish more exes would help in not only exposing what they are doing, but helping educate the public and help stop these groups from infiltrating society.

So few are helping compared to the many that are out of the cult. Even a little bit if help is better than none. The cult is organized and has resources. They have targets they push and demand get done. We are not organized by any sense of the word but that doesn't mean help is not needed. Some of what can be done is to alert officials or communities or schools. Some is to do this on Facebook or by email or by snail mail. Any help is better than doing nothing.

OK, done with ranting for the day

I'm not sure that Addicts Unite is going to find an alliance with the Church of Scientology Foundation for a Drug Free World to be such a good idea.

In the fast pace of today’s technological world we are dealing with a multitude of severe and varied addiction problems. They not only destroy people’s lives, but those of families and friends as well. The fear of being singled out, the subsequent retreat into isolation due to the various negative consequences of addiction leaves the addict and those affected with nowhere to turn. Addictsunite gives the member an opportunity to reach out for help anonymously. Addictsunite provides its members with a safe environment to create their own support structure and user list of people they feel they can confide in.

Andrew Gason today gave a presentation to a Samoan youth group in Melton South, Australia as a representative of New Civilization Builders. The group is involved in a number of Scientology causes, such as Foundation for a Drug Free World, Scientology Volunteer Ministers, and The Way to Happiness.

Just gave a talk to a Seven Day Adventists Samoan youth group in Melton South today about how to become independent, financially self sustainable and how to apply the Personal Values and Integrity Course to change your life. We are now planning a series of workshops to educate the young people on specific life skills using what I have learned from life experience, Hubbard life Improvment skills, business experience, 16 years of community engagement and mentors that I have access to across all walks of life.
