Demystifying Scientology's Fundamental Reality -- The BT's

In Scientology, the information contained in its confidential "upper levels" is
a closely guarded secret. Many people have paid hundreds of thousands of
dollars to reach these levels, only to discover that had they known beforehand
what these upper levels contained, they would not have paid for them. Others
claim that even if they had known, they would have continued in Scientology.
In the interest of full disclosure, we feel that anyone considering getting
into Scientology should know what they can expect for their money.

In the lower levels of Scientology, new Scientologists are taught to believe
that the person or "pre-clear's" behavior and problems are caused by his
"reactive mind." The reactive mind is the term used by Scientologists to
describe a supposed force that causes a person to act irrationally or against
his own best interest. Scientology seeks to convince a person that he needs to
overcome his unknowing obedience to this reactive mind and clear himself of its
influence. A person is promised that when he becomes "clear" of his reactive
mind, he will be free from mental and physical problems. After reaching this
much-touted "State of Clear," a Scientologist is then indoctrinated to believe
that by paying for a further series of expensive "auditing" procedures, he will
eventually attain a state known as "Operating Thetan," or "OT." In Scientology,
one is taught that there is an entity, separate from the body, which is called
a "thetan". One is promised that when the state of OT is attained, one will be
able to fly around at will without one's body. One will be in complete control,
in fact, over the entire physical universe of Matter, Energy, Space and Time.

The OT levels are very secret in Scientology. People spend many thousands of
dollars, sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars, to get onto these OT
levels that are supposed to enable one to achieve such phenomenal abilities. No
one has yet been able to exhibit any of these so-called super-human abilities,
which on average cost USD 360,000, but many people are still trying. Some have
been on these upper levels for as long as fifteen to twenty years.

The most important secret of the upper levels is found on OT 3, called the Wall
of Fire in Scientology. It is on this level that one learns the "secrets of the
universe." One learns Hubbard's so-called truth about why human beings are so
limited in their abilities, and what can be done to correct this. Hubbard's
"diagnosis" for the suffering and insanity on this planet is the OT 3 incident
- the "Fourth Dynamic Engram" in Hubbardspeak. Many people characterize this as
the core belief of Scientology but it is not -- it is in fact the entire CORE
of Scientology.

Here is Hubbard's so-called factual and scientific truth that all
Scientologist's must not only accept as reality but experience as reality:

75 million years ago, the galactic overlord for this sector of the galaxy was
called Xenu. He was in charge of 76 planets, including Earth (at that time
known as Teegeeack).

All of the planets Xenu controlled were over-populated by, on average, 178
billion people. Social problems dictated that Xenu rid his sector of the
galaxy of this overpopulation problem, so he developed a plan.

Xenu sent out tax audit demands to all these trillions of people. As each one
entered the audit centers for the income tax inspections, the people were
seized, held down and injected with a mixture of alcohol and glycol, and
frozen. Then, all 13.5 trillion of these frozen people were put into
spaceships that looked exactly like DC8 airplanes, except that the spaceships
had rocket engines instead of propellers.

Xenu's entire fleet of DC8-like spaceships then flew to planet Earth, where
the frozen people were dumped in and around volcanoes in the Canary Islands
and the Hawaiian Islands. When Xenu's Air Force had finished dumping the
bodies into the volcanoes, hydrogen bombs were dropped into the volcanoes and
the frozen space aliens were vaporized.

However, Xenu's plan involved setting up electronic traps in Teegeeack's
atmosphere which were designed to trap the souls or spirits of the dead space
aliens. When the 13.5 trillion spirits were being blown around on the nuclear
winds, the electronic traps worked like a charm and captured all the souls in
the electronic, sticky fly-paper like traps.

The spirits of the aliens were then taken to huge multiplex cinemas that Xenu
had previously instructed his forces to build on Teegeeack. In these movie
theaters the spirits had to spend many days watching special 3-D movies, the
purpose of which was twofold: 1) to implant into these spirits a false
reality, i.e. the reality that WOGS (Hubbard's derisory term for anyone not a
Scientologists) know on Earth today; and, 2) to control these spirits for all
eternity so that they could never cause trouble for Xenu in this sector of the
Galaxy. During these films, many false pictures and stories were implanted
into these spirits, which resulted in the spirits believing in all the things
that control mankind on Earth today, including religion. The concept of
religion, including God, Christ, Mohammed, Moses etc., were all an implanted
false reality that to this very minute are used to control WOGS on Earth.

When the films ended and the souls left the cinema, they started to stick
together in clusters of a few thousand and remained that way until mankind
began to inhabit the Earth. Today on Earth all the spirits of these aliens
have attached themselves to our bodies and are the root cause of the false
reality that all but Scientology's "Homo Novis" or OT 8's on earth experience.
It is the job of all Scientologists to remove this false reality from the
world by auditing each and every space alien spirit and human on earth and the
entire universe to CLEAR. For those who oppose Scientology and stand in their
way like the Lisa McPherson Trust and all Scientology critics, Scientology
promises to do away with them "quietly and without sorrow".

We have calculated that on average, each person on planet earth has 2,209 of
these Body Thetans (BT's for short), Hubbard's term for the alien spirits,
attached to you causing you to be constrained by Xenu's false reality. The
average cost for Scientology to OT 8 is a mere USD 360,000, meaning that each
BT only costs USD 163 to clear. Now that is a bargain if there ever was one.

Hubbard never said the overall cost to the planet would be cheap, but let's
examine it. The planetary cost equation is as follows: 13.5 trillion spirits
times USD 163 equals a mere USD 2,205,000,000,000,000. Just think about
it -- USD 2.2 quadrillion -- WOW!, that's enough to keep Rear Admiral
Miscavige, the current head of Scientology and Marty Rathbun, his number two,
in casino chips for a long time.

To finish the "factual" account, the Loyal Officers of the Marcab Confederation
finally discovered how evil Xenu was and overthrew him. He is now locked away
in a mountain on one of the planets and kept in by a force-field powered by
an eternal battery. Several of Xenu's relatives can often be found on the
internet newsgroup called alt.religion.scientology (or ARS for short) battling
Scientology daily.

Many Scientologists who have left from the highest levels of Scientology have
told us that they have been in a room at Scientology's Sandcastle building in
Clearwater, Florida for 5-7 hours per day for up to 15 years, holding two
asparagus cans together, attached to a primitive lie detector, talking all day
to these dead space aliens. And guess what? You'll never ever finish talking to
dead space aliens until you leave Scientology.

As we said, you are learning about this story in the interest of full
disclosure. If you become involved with Scientology we want you to do so with
your eyes open and fully aware of the sort of material it contains. And, if
you're in Scientology you should know how you will be spending the rest of your
life.
