Ya think?I could be wrong (It does happen once in a while) but Horacio's posts seem rather tongue in cheek to me.

...which is a long story given the history of a spiritual being imagining itself (i.e mocking itself up) as being a man. The invisible becoming visible. The formeless taking form. The timeless appearing in time. etc.
Nonetheless I will provide a short version here (for openers) having been prepared for the intellectual elite amongst us. Elsewise it would take a few lifetimes (if not more) to explain the basic & fundamental dynamics involved to the idiots amongst us. Which are many.
The foremost question at the moment for us ('us' being humanity) is how is it possible that such a great human liar could produce such a great spiritual truth? Which conceptual framework is intellectually indisputable as being 'workable' (though the morons amongst us will continue to whine about it). So be it. More on being a moron later.
Given the depth, breadth and scope of the subject I must and will necessarily begin with a few simple concepts. Beginning with the fundamental concept that: all human beings have a 'Moral Code'. Which consequence of such an elementary concept will come into play later on (in terms of coming to understand why Scientology works on some, and why Scientology does not work on others).
By the way, as a side note, the reason most human beings do not think for themselves, is because thinking itself, is work. Don't believe me? Think about it.
L. Ron Hubbard knew something most people in this world didn't (and never would/will) know. Which is to say he knew he was a God, of sorts, in regard to this world. He knew he was a Spiritual Being that was formless and timeless and thus invisible and eternal, which he called, in his words, the Static. Not 'A' Static mind you. But 'The' Static. Big difference. More on that later. Covered in the subject of Being a 'Thetan'.
Sufficient to clarify (for the moment) Scientology appeared on the worlds stage/scene owing to the presence of a man that knew (if not merely deeply-believed) that all men were Gods, even as he struggled with his own sense (and reality) of being a man. With all of the difficulties such a co-reality entails and demands. After all, he did flunk physics. And he did write Dianetics. In that order.
More later.

Hey! I wuz gonna say dat!Ya think?
LOL. Nice try, Bill (Yaude). You & your OSA shenanigans posting as 'Turtlez' on OCMB didn't work there... they sure, in hell, aren't going to work here.
Keep trying, cupcake. :dancer:

"The foremost question at the moment for us ('us' being humanity) is how is it possible that such a great human liar could produce such a great spiritual truth?"
The answer is simple to articulate, though not easy to understand. The chief opening difficulty being in our pre-dispostion to imagine we already know the relationship between being a man and being a spirit. Which by and large, we do not. Setting aside Hubbards science of 'knowing how to know', for the moment.
The observer and observed of anything are united. Dog-shit-spiritual-reality, 101.
The significance in regard to scientology in general, and Mr. Hubbard in specific, being the subject of this brief elaboration on the opening post to this thread.
To wit: Any identity perceived is a fabrication of the perceiver of it. Period. Which is to say (as an example) in simple terms, if 12 people comprised a group of individuals that listened to L. Ron Hubbard speak, there would be (or would have been) 12 L. Ron Hubbards speaking to that group. Dog-shit-spiritual-reality, 101, again. Ditto Scientology. Doctrine and dogma alike.
Look, before we get to the 'meat' of the issue we have to take a look at the 'bones' of the issue, upon which all that meat is hanging. Which is to say, the 'structure' of it. Which structure rests on 'Identity'. Period. In all its many (and splendid) flavors of being, and meaning. Human and Spirit. Ignorance and Wisdom. Truth and error. Et al.
We one and all possess an eternal spiritual identity that trumps all lesser temporal identities, of our being. Individually. And Collectively. Which 'is' the solid spiritual facts (the bones) upon which our transitory experiences (the meat, called case) is hanging.
Misunderstanding the first point, makes understanding the second point, impossible.
And L. Ron Hubbard, at some level of his Being, knew that. And thus He ruled his world. For a time.
more on that later.

Posts like this make me want to tear my clothes off and run naked down the street screaming "I am an SP!"

I am not able to actually read your posts usually because they are trollishly cryptic and no amount of effort results in anything enjoyable.
So, I turned your post into a WordCloud.
Now I can at least look at it. And it makes slightly more sense.
Here is somebody else's L Ron Hubbard.

Horatio, you're talkin a lot, but you aint saying much.
Pre-post drinking increasing?
blah, blah, blather, babble
Good sir, my job is not to make clear to the intellectually-challenged that which they are unable make clear to themselves. That was Hubbards hat.
The concepts are simple, not complex. Any complexity someone sees in them would be either a poor description by the person describing it, (Hubbard) or a students personal short-comings in understanding simplicities and would serve to show where they are on the path. $cientology is just a label, not the phenomena itself. Hubbard didn't invent the phenomena. Although he wouldn't correct you if you thought he did.My job is to present (sometimes complex) concepts that underly the phenomena of Scientology, specifically where those concepts served to trap unsuspecting future Scientology Clears and OT's.
Ahh, thanks, I think. I've never had much trouble understanding $cientology concepts. Whenever I did it was usually in duplicating Hubbards unusual viewpoint. The challenge is separating out Hubbards ego and bias. What little remains could be useful.Nevertheless, in your case, I will make an exception and attempt to clarify for you any of the concepts I have discussed to date that you seem to struggle to understand (or conversly, do not want to understand).
much love,
Horacio
