The story goes it all happened 75 trillion years ago (the universe as we know it is 13.8 billion years old, but anyway) that there was a cataclysmic event that resulted in Earth being a prison planet for the bad souls ot thetans as they’re called in Scientology, from another galactic confederacy. Called Marcab.
So now to be great again you should use Scientology counselling techniques to rid you of these evil body clusters of bad thetans from.. well… this event 75 trillion years ago.
The 2nd final step on this road to total spiritual freedom is OT VII (Operating Thetan) and takes about 5 years per person to do @ $40,000/year. It involves sitting in a room on your own each day for a few times (20-30mins each) and auditing yourself on a Scientology e-meter – which means your in effect counselling yourself 2-3 times a day. And paying for it to.
However there is a glitch and its not the price tag either, you can’t become PTS while your doing this…
Whats PTS? Potential Trouble Source. It is someone who might conceivable be a source of trouble to the Church of Scientology.
Now this also includes people who leave Scientology and take a dim view on how they were treated while in Scientology.
Like myself, sent to join the Sea Org when I was 12 and left after 8 years with a £24,000 bill to pay them for doing 100 weeks of greulling work for £5 pay per week and very shit room and board.
Anyway I paid said bill in my 20s as a must do in order to continue being a Scientologist and maintain a good relationship with my family. So I did.
Then I did decide in my 30s that I was done…
Lost all the famaly anyway led on by my mother who is currently auditing on OT VII – so in order to continue she now has to disconnect from her son.
Just another price to pay to sit in that room on your own and cousel yourself with the churches permission.
You have to praise these whimpering souls progress in Scientology to get anywhere near being close to them otherwise your no longer a PTS (potential troubles source) but become and SP (suppressive person) and considered an enemy to the church.
It’s historic church policy that SPs can be deprived of life by any means nessecary.
Last year I had 6 death threats from Scientologists.
It claims to not be a cult but leaving is sure made to be a very bad proposition for you if you do.
Including losing contact with your family and death threats (which stupidly they put in writing and I kept).
