Good post.
Of course, the BIGGEST "outpoint" to it all is that there aren't any sort of actual OT Levels IX and X anyways! It is PR. It is "come-on dissemination". It is the promose pf a "carrot", yet there ain't no carrot at all! Some people chase a carrot on a stick. Scientolgoists chase the promise and hope of a carrot on a stick.
At best, some special CMO project dug through Hubbard's rambling scribblings and cobbled together what they CALLED OT IX and X.
Hubbard NEVER left a "completed Bridge to Total Freedom". That these dedicated devout dummies continue to entertain such a fantasy is beyond STUPID.
Hubbard write somewhere that there is a lower condition BELOW "confusion" - he called it STUPIDITY.
And THAT is where excessive involvement with Hubbard's Scientology eventually takes one. Right down the conditions to the very bottom.
I figured they'd go "back to the well" eventually and roll out the "Old" OT Sections to get them up to OT 12 or so.
Que up the Theme to Twilight Zone, I was thinking about the same thing Double H said in his Post this very mornin'...If DM actually believed this stuff, he'd roll out 9 and 10 but it's all about the dough and control of the core constituency that's still got some cash.
