Revealed: Scientology’s Stress Test" Scam A sign screams out, "FREE STRESS TEST." What could go wrong ? by Dr. Lilly von Marcab
Everyone has seen them at subway stations, street festivals, shopping malls, and even ordinary city sidewalks: a few friendly-looking people sitting at small, folding tables, with colorful electronic contraptions prominently upon them, and lots of hardbound copies of L. Ron Hubbard books. A sign screams out, "FREE STRESS TEST." Naturally, everyone feels a little stressed out in our modern day, so with a chuckle and a smile, the ordinary citizens passing by may sit down "just to see how this thing works." It is fun to try out this kind of carnival game. Maybe this gizmo will say something amazingly accurate. Also, it’s free. What could go wrong ? Well, a lot could go wrong, and often does. The people with the gizmos are Scientology cult recruiters; the machines themselves are Scientology "E-Meters," a primitive sort of lie-detector machine; and the Hubbard books are part of a sales strategy that is elaborately plotted out to the point of being bizarre, especially for an organization that claims to be a religion. No matter who you are, how you feel, or what kind of jiggles and squiggles the E-Meter apparatus makes in response to you, the Scientologists will tell you that your life is in a rather precarious situation, and that the best thing would be for you to come down to the "church" for further interpretation and advice. Let’s make an appointment for you now. What is your name, address, home phone number, work phone number, cell phone number, e-mail address? You need to buy one of these books, too. What is this "Stress Test" nonsense ? In the early 1960s, the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) realized that Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard and his acolytes were claiming that "auditing" with the E-Meter could help to diagnose and treat a variety of illnesses. Auditing, one of Scientology’s core practices, is based on the notion that the E-Meter can reveal a person’s mental state, past lives, and other odds and ends of the unconscious mind. This is done through intensive questioning by an "Auditor," as the subject holds the E-Meter and the Auditor leads him or her through a sort of guided hypnagogic fantasizing. Because Scientology believes that illness is caused by the presence of "suppressive persons," and not germs, toxins, genetics or other causes, Hubbard and the Scientologists were spreading the word that the E-Meter could help root out the suppressive people in one’s life, thereby curing a variety of illnesses and health conditions, raising IQ, and making one successful in every way. This, of course, was completely false. In 1963, the FDA seized more than 100 E-Meters from the cult’s offices in Washington, DC. Thus began 8 years of litigation, with lots of dramatic highlights that I will not discuss here. On July 30, 1971 Judge Gesell reluctantly ruled that Scientology must, indeed, legally be considered a "religion," but only because the US Government had neglected to do anything about it earlier. Unfortunately the Government did not move to stop the practice of Scientology and a related "science" known as Dianetics when these activities first appeared and were gaining public acceptance. Had it done so, this tedious litigation would not have been necessary. The Government did not sue to condemn the E-meter until the early 1960’s, by which time a religious cult known as the Founding Church of Scientology had appeared. Gesell ruled that the Scientologists could keep on auditing and using the E-Meter, but they were forbidden to make any claims that it could diagnose, prevent or treat any health condition. Moreover, they were only to use it under the strictest of "religious" contexts, and they were to prepare warning notices that could be prominently seen on the E-Meter as well as in any literature or publication about the E-Meter or the auditing process. "Ministers" as well as people being audited were required to file affidavits with the FDA. "The effect of this judgment," Gesell wrote, "will be to eliminate the E-meter as far as further secular use by Scientologists or others is concerned." On appeal, a couple of years later, a federal judge weakened Gesell’s ruling somewhat, but still maintained the following provisions: 1. E-meters shall be used or sold or distributed only for use in bona fide religious counseling. 2. Each E-meter shall bear the following warning, printed in 11-point leaded type, permanently affixed to the front of the E-meter so that it is clearly visible when the E-meter is used, sold or distributed: "The E-meter is not medically or scientifically useful for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of any disease. It is not medically or scientifically capable of improving the health or bodily functions of anyone." 3. Any and all items of written, printed, or graphic matter which directly or indirectly refers (sic) to the E-meter or to Dianetics and/or Scientology and/or auditing or processing shall not be further used or distributed unless and until the item shall bear the following prominent printed warning permanently affixed to said item on the outside front cover or on the title page in letters no smaller than 11-point leaded type: "Warning: The device known as a Hubbard Electrometer, or E-meter, used in auditing, a process of Scientology and Dianetics, is not medically or scientifically useful for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of any disease. It is not medically or scientifically capable of improving the health or bodily functions of anyone." Why, then, 35 years later, is Scientology "diagnosing" stress with the apparatus, in contexts that are blatantly not "bona fide religious" settings? Instead of following these highly detailed and very explicit instructions, Scientology only does this: its "warning" label, placed discreetly underneath (rather than on top of) the contraption, reads as follows: "By itself, this meter does nothing. It is solely for the guide of Ministers of the Church in Confessionals and pastoral counseling. The Electrometer is not medically or scientifically capable of improving the health or bodily function of anyone and is for religious use by students and Ministers of the Church of Scientology only." Scientology also ignores the order to provide the warning on its graphic materials, magazines, web sites etc. So, these sidewalk stress-testers, "volunteer" Scientology "ministers," who survive on about $35/week, go out every day with the order to sell a certain quota of the Hubbard books for a "suggested donation" of $22 each. Try to make a "donation" of less than that, say, for example, $1, as I tried to do, and several worried hands will rush out to snatch the book from your grasp. Usually, of course, the Scientologists fail to sell their quota of the books, even if they sit out there for 12 hours or more. The quarterly Scientology "Book-a-thons" may prolong their misery still further, and here in San Francisco, for example, we have witnessed many long days on which the Scientologists sold no books at all, and perhaps only giving a handful of stress tests. Most of the time, the Scientologists will play a sort of musical chairs, taking turns in giving each other stress tests, in an effort to seem as though the stress tests are greatly in demand. Considering the elaborate planning and infrastructure behind Scientology’s "Stress Test and Book Sales Org Board," this can only be seen as a tremendous failure. Things have changed Since
the beginning of 2008, much has changed in the way the world
and the general public view the Scientology cult. The worldwide
"Anonymous" peaceful protests and demonstrations have
brought a tremendous amount of light and clarity to Scientology’s
secretive and immoral practices. People no longer see Scientology
as merely a weird and harmless cult. People have begun to understand
Scientology’s "disconnection" policy, through which
families are destroyed; people now know about its internal prison
gulag called the "Rehabilitation Project Force"; people
now know about Scientology’s motto of "Always attack, never
defend"; people now know that the cult owns a 500-foot
luxury cruise ship for tax-deductible Caribbean cruises for
Scientologists; about the 21 years the cult knew this ship was
full of deadly blue asbestos, but did nothing, because they
believe disease is only caused by suppressive persons nearby;
people know about the cult’s abusive treatment of children;
about its phony "religious worker visa" game to circumvent
immigration laws; people now know that Scientology really is
what Time Magazine declared them to be in 1991: The Cult of
Greed. The Scientology cult was founded in 1950 by science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard. Its primary goal is to "clear the planet" by "obliterating psychiatry." Scientology’s many front groups include the Citizens’ Commission on Human Rights (CCHR), Criminon, Narconon, and Applied Scholastics. Scientology claims to be the "world’s fastest growing religion," with some 8 million members, but mainstream demographic surveys have shown that the number of members is closer to 55,000 worldwide, and declining. Scientology is currently under investigation in several countries for a variety of human rights abuses, including child abuse, violation of child labor laws, kidnapping and running secret internal prison camps, as well as for a number of financial crimes. Scientology has already been kicked out of Greece and Italy; in Germany it has been declared a "threat to democracy"; in France its leaders are being prosecuted for fraud; it is on very thin ice as well in Belgium, Norway, and other European countries. Comment by Maureen
My hypothetical based on the use of Sidis, Jung, Wundt and VanVogt in the 'first person' voice of Hubbard speaking - is here: Imagine
a Letter From L Ron Hubbard / http://www.lermanet.com/exit/hubbard-the-hypnotist9.htm
"Have them hold the e-meter cans and pinch their arm. They see it makes the needle jump on the e-meter. Then have them think about just being pinched and tell them to watch the e-meter needle jump again. They think the e-meter works! What they don't know is that the e-meter also known as a galvanometer, and the trick I use, was taken from psychologists back in the early 1900's. Boris Sidis and many other doctors studied the galvanometer to determine how it worked on animals and humans." -- I have to merge another with this newer one, because it effectively signifies (imho) a state of 'amnesia' or 'anaesthesia' where members begin to forget their 'personal constitution' (German - 'man of the house') eg., convictions, thoughts, family and illness that may need to be treated by medically trained, non Scientology doctors: Scientology and Amnesia, a New Hit on the Head http://www.lermanet.com/scientology/amnesia.htm
"A brief example of this procedure has been given in a previous paper, with reference to reducing or exhausting the effect of a sharp physical pinch. The subject is pinched, then is instructed to close his eyes and repeatedly feel the pinch. After a few times of mentally re-feeling the pinch, the charge on the event dissipates... Here we get into the usual argument so dear to the hearts of all psychologists. Is it anaesthesia or amnesia ? Perhaps the subject actually felt the pain, but merely forgot about it on awakening, just as he tends to forget everything else which happens in somnambulism .... The anaesthesia may or may not be real but the subject acts as if it were, insisting after the trance that he felt no pain. Yet, whether real or genuine, it does not have nearly as much importance as the average reader may think. Pain is the doctor's friend, although we as sufferers may not always see this point. It is nature's great alarm signal. Without doubt hypnotism could completely remove the pain in many a case of acute appendicitis, but that would not prevent the appendix from rupturing. It might only serve to lull us into a false sense of security . Similarly pain may mean many things. Gastric ulcer, kidney disease, rheumatism or an ulcerated tooth. The doctor's problem is not to remove the pain but the cause of the pain. For example, two of the worst "killers" in the whole disease world are tuberculosis and cancer, mainly because they give us the warning after it is too late. Tuberculosis can be quite easily cured in its early stages, but unfortunately it is a painless disease. We can easily be suffering from an advanced case of tuberculosis and yet be fairly comfortable, beyond a very troublesome cough and a feeling of continual fatigue." Maureen |

Scientology auf Studentenfang am Schottentor
Mit dem Angebot eines Gratis-"Stresstests" macht Scientology auf der Straße versteckt Werbung und versucht, neue Mitglieder zu keilen - regelmäßig auch vor der Wiener Uni Wien - Verkehrsknotenpunkt Schottentor. Abends, Rushhour. Der eine Menschenstrom hetzt von der Straßen- zur U-Bahn, der andere in die umgekehrte Richtung. Inmitten der Massen die einsame Insel:"Stresstest" wirbt in großen Buchstaben ein Schild auf einem Tisch. Die Sessel drumherum laden zum Verschnaufen ein. Kurz nicht aufgepasst, und ich lande fast auf dem Schoß eines sehr freundlichen Herren. "Willst du rausfinden, wie gestresst du bist?" , fragt er. Nein, denke ich, das weiß ich doch selbst. Aber was tut man nicht alles aus Neugier?Ein einwilligendes Nicken, und ich halte ein paar Sekunden später zwei Metallröhren in beiden Händen. Was das soll?"Damit wird dein Stresslevel gemessen" , sagt mir der unverändert lächelnde Herr. Wie das funktioniert?"Denke an etwas, das dich stresst!" , fordert er mich auf. Gesagt, getan. Auf dem Gerät, an dem die Metallröhren angeschlossen sind, bewegt sich ein Zeiger bis zum Anschlag der Skala. "Das heißt, du hast ein hohes Stresslevel" , folgt die Erklärung. Was für eine Überraschung, denke ich mir, ich habe ja auch an etwas Stressiges gedacht. Woran denn genau, will er nun wissen. "An die Arbeit" , antworte ich, und sogleich springt er eifrig auf, mit den Worten:"Da habe ich genau das Richtige für dich !" Versteckte Werbung Während der Herr, weiterhin lächelnd, in dem Stapel an diversen DVDs und Büchern auf dem Tisch herumkramt, sehe ich mir deren Titel genauer an. "Dianetik" steht da, und "L. Ron Hubbard" . Schau, schau. Nun ist klar, wer den Stresstest anbietet: L. Ron Hubbard ist der Gründer der Sekte Scientology, Dianetik seine Lehre. "Nicht viele wissen um den Zusammenhang von Dianetik und Scientology" , erklärt Psychologe und Sektenexperte Martin Felinger von der Gesellschaft gegen Sekten- und Kultgefahren. "Er soll auch nicht auf den ersten Blick erkennbar sein" , sagt er. Diese Sichtweise teilt auch Ex-Scientologe Wilfried Handl: "Ziel ist, die Leute zu ködern - und mit dem Stresstest kann man Schwachstellen zum Andocken finden." Der Standort am Schottentor könnte nicht besser gewählt sein: hochfrequentiert und wettergeschützt, die Uni Wien direkt daneben. "Dass die Uni in der Nähe ist, ist ein reiner Zufall" , sagt Scientology-Pressesprecherin Angelika Thonauer. "Wir sind seit fünf Jahren regelmäßig hier." Ausschlaggebend für die Platzwahl sei nur der Wetterschutz gewesen. Angemeldet ist die Veranstaltung als Demonstration "Gegen den Missbrauch des Begriffes ‚Stress‘ durch die Pharmaindustrie" . "Wir wollen ein besseres Verständnis von Stress bewirken" , erklärt Thonauer.Ein angenehmer Nebeneffekt ist die Uni-Nähe aber schon, ist für Handl klar: "Studierende sind ein Zielpublikum von Scientology." Die Uni ist Anziehungspunkt für viele Gruppen, weiß auch Felinger: "Es ist immer eine gute Werbung, wenn man seinen Vortrag zum Beispiel im Audimax der UniWien hält." Dies verleihe automatisch mehr Glaubwürdigkeit. "Die Hörsäle auf der Uni können unabhängig vom wissenschaftlichen Betrieb gemietet werden, nur wissen das die Wenigsten" , ortet er die Problematik. Der Leiter des Veranstaltungsmanagements der Uni Wien, Falk Pastner, betont, man vermiete keine Räume an Sekten. "Allerdings platzieren sich viele Gruppen, die keine Genehmigung bekommen, rund um die Uni." Absicht oder nicht - am Stresstest kommt man nicht so leicht vorbei. Aber zumindest schaffe ich es, mich wieder loszueisen, ohne etwas gekauft zu haben. (Astrid-Madeleine Schlesier, UNISTANDARD, Printausgabe, 5.5.2011) |

The Scientology cult’s internal prison gulag currently holds hundreds of people of various nationalities. This is happening right now in the USA at the "Rehabilitation Project Force" (RPF) centers run by this "church," where members who have disagreed with Scientology management are sent for punishment and re-indoctrination. The average internment is 2 to 10 years. Many of these people were granted USA visas as "religious workers" or "students" of Scientology. There are also RPF centers in the UK, Australia and Denmark. Scientology staff and even "public" Scientologists are heavily recruited to join the "Sea Organization," or "Sea Org." The Sea Org is a bizarre, paramilitary order of Scientology, where all members are required to sign a "billion year contract" to help Scientology "clear the planet" and "obliterate psychiatry." Any person who joins the Sea Org and then later disagrees with its practices will soon find him- or herself confined in the RPF. The conditions these people live in are inhumane and violate many national laws, as well as prisoner of war standards held by the United Nations and the Geneva Convention. Regular Sea Org members are required to work 10-12 hours a day, 7 days a week, receiving receive only a small stipend, usually 50 US dollars/week, from which tax is withheld. The standard net payment is $46 and some cents. The actual work time is disguised by the statement that there are 8 hours of work time and 2-4 hours of "study". The "study" activities are merely intensive indoctrination sessions in learning how to perform one’s work duties and how to comply with the many rules and policies of the organization. There’s no "study" of anything other than Scientology, and many times this is canceled in order to meet production quotas, called "statistics". If the "stats" are down, members are frequently required to work even more hours. Many weeks this minimal pay is cut down further, due to other "financial planning priorities." The United States Government’s federal poverty guideline for religious workers is about $12,000 per year per person. The annual pay per the current Scientology system only gives a Sea Org member $2,390 annually. No medical or other benefits are provided. Sea Org members who have been sent to the Rehabilitation Project Force are only granted $11 and some cents per week. Even this is often cut down to one-eighth of full pay or about $5 and some cents. This is annually around $300 to $600. This system is built on the assumption that a Sea Org member is doing his or her work "voluntarily" and this way of reasoning is justified with the fact that he or she is given food, "berthing" (a place to sleep) and a uniform. The quality of the housing and food is poor, and in the case of housing especially, violates many fire, housing and safety codes, as up to 50 people are packed into bunks stacked to the ceilings in rooms meant for 2 to 4 people. Hundreds are forced to use a single shower room, and bathrooms are shared by approximately 25 full time residents each. Scientology is spending millions of tax free dollars on new buildings to in an attempt to show the cult’s "growth." They get the buildings renovated and upgraded by using the slave labor of Sea Org members, especially those in the RPF. With regard to the nationals of other countries who are in the Sea Org, the US State Department forbids workers on religious visas to work as "janitors, maintenance workers, clerks, fundraisers or persons involved solely in the solicitations of donations." Scientology does not have any kind of insurance for most of its members and most medical expenses are borne by US taxpayers. When members require medical or dental attention, they are required to fill out state aid forms identifying themselves as "indigent." They are also encouraged to abuse other social programs such as SSI, MediCal and Medicare. Scientology uses many methods to persuade Sea Org members to give up all responsibilities to their families and children, and they are encouraged to abandon family responsibilities to welfare agencies and other government social services. RPF members in the Sea Org are not allowed to leave the premises, not even for medical treatment, unless accompanied by "security" personnel to ensure their adherence to the "shore story" (party line). Should someone manage to escape, Scientology security will guard every means of exit, such as airports, bus stations, subways, etc. They will spend weeks investigating the escapee’s family and friends, and use Private Investigators to track them down, even picketing people’s homes and harassing their friends, family, neighbors and employers. People assigned to Scientology’s RPF have their passports, visa, IDs, credit cards and other documents confiscated and locked up so that full control can be enforced on the member, in an attempt to prevent him or her from leaving without permission. Permission to leave is only granted after an extensive "routing out" procedure has been completed, which includes intensive re-indoctrination, "security checks" on the "e-meter," and many pages of other forms and agreements to keep quiet. Completing these requirements takes months and sometimes years. Meanwhile those wishing to leave are held in virtual isolation under 24 hour guard. RPF members are considered to be security risks, especially if they have been to or worked at the "top secret" international Scientology base and headquarters at Gilman Hot Springs (Hemet), California, where "Golden Era Productions" and Scientology’s leader David Miscavige are located. This is done in an attempt to scare and prevent ex-members from speaking out or taking any legal action against the "church" or management once they are finally allowed to leave. People assigned to Scientology’s RPF are forced to work at hard labor for an average of 2 to 10 years. They are not allowed access to their own mail, nor to newspapers, TV, any music, radio, or books. It is forbidden for any Sea Org member to view the internet. They are told "it contains harmful, confidential data, detrimental to your well-being." This is to prevent them from discovering the tremendous amount of evidence now available on the internet of Scientology’s crimes and misdeeds. All mail to all Sea Org members is opened and scanned into a security computer system. Personal mail containing any criticism of Scientology is sent to the "Ethics Department" and withheld from the addressee. RPF members are essentially cut off from reality for years. They are not allowed to contact their own families or children unless there is a "PR" (public relations) issue, in which case a staff member might be allowed a phone conversation or letter that is scripted and observed by Scientology security and designed to reassure those concerned that there is "nothing to worry about." Social gatherings such as weddings, anniversaries, family reunions are forbidden and though in rare cases a funeral attendance can be granted, the member will be accompanied by Scientology security. Many married members have been forced to divorce if one of the spouses dares to defy scientology management. All Scientologists are forced to adhere to a policy called "disconnection, whereby they are forced to cut off contact with any friends or family members (including their own minor children) who express disagreement with Scientology. "Retirement" in this cult occurs when a member becomes too old or sick to work. There are members of the Sea Org who are over 80 years old and still working. Members who are too ill to work are kept in isolation and abide by the same rules of no family contact, no TV, books, etc. as the rest of the RPF. The routine to offload "useless” members from the RPF program is called a "Fitness Board Turndown," and many are put out on the street with only $500 in "severance pay" after many years of labor (in many cases 20 or more years); no retirement funds, and no useable work history or skills. They end up dependent upon Social Security, or the mercy of family they haven’t seen in years. Occasionally, Scientology Security will prevail on "Public Scientologists" (ordinary citizens who are Scientologists) to create a job for these unfortunate people. When released from "duty" in this way, they are forced to sign 15 or so pages of "nondisclosure" agreements wherein they are required to promise to never reveal the truth of what it is like to be a Sea Org member, especially one assigned to the RPF. Child welfare and social services authorities in California and Florida are well acquainted with Scientology. Members are discouraged from having children due to the many legal "flaps" over the years. Children are considered to be "off purpose" as they take time away from "production" and "getting the stats up." Many members have been coerced into having abortions. Children who are raised in Scientology are separated from their parents, live in squalid conditions with minimal supervision, and are "trained" in scientology schools using "Study Tech." Many do not graduate high school. When they rebel, as most teenagers do, they are sent to the RPF (where many spend years) or are offloaded and declared "SP" (Suppressive Persons) and forced to disconnect from their parents and other family still in Scientology. Yes, this is all taking place daily in the USA, UK and other countries, while the Chairman of the Board of Scientology, David Miscavige, and his celebrity friends, are known to frequent casinos in Las Vegas and the Caribbean. Miscavige lives in luxury quarters at the Hemet Base and in Hollywood, where he has two additional luxury suites that were built and are maintained by Sea Org members, at no charge to him or to the church. Scientology has been given a free ride in the USA and other countries for too long. The moment anyone criticizes the cult, the organization and its members begin whining loudly about "hate speech" and "bigotry," and frequently make comparisons of themselves with the Jews of 1938 Germany; i.e. threatened and persecuted victims of religious bigotry. Fortunately, several very serious investigations by US authorities have now begun into the Sea Org and many other nefarious aspects of Scientology. You can

many crimes and abuses. Please come to http://www.youfoundthecard.com

Scientology Cult Claims Another Victim by Dr. Lilly von Marcab
The Scientology cult’s former international chief of security, a man with multiple sclerosis, has died in Sciento- logy's "Rehabilitation Project Force" (RPF). The RPF is Scientology’s internal prison network. Uwe Stuckenbrock, a native of Germany, was just 46 years old. Stuckenbrock’s
brother Markus posted this week on the "Ex-Scientologist
Message Board" - http://forum.exscn.net/showthread.php?p=156385
Hi everybody. I’m really shocked! On Thuesday my father called and told me that my brother Uwe Stuckenbrock (46years old) died last night. The least 5 (?) years he suffered at Multiple Sclerosis and was living in the RPF PAC since 2001 and before in the RPF in Happy Valley. What the RPF is and what living conditions he had I found out today on www.lermanet.com/rpf-insider/index.htm while looking for more information about his death on the internet. I also learned, that his former wife Lurisse Stuckenbrock is still in a higher Position in the Scientology Organisation. Does anybody have more information for me? If it should come to light, that his bad life cicumstances in the RPF lead to his early death I consider legal steps against every possible responsible person. For example because of failure to give assistance. I live in Germany and we had only telephonic contact with Uwe and the last Years he was not able to speak because of his serious Multiple Sclerosis. And the other people on the phone obviously were mostly telling us lies about his situation. Does anybody know more about this terrible affair or if he had at least a few friends arround at his ceremony. I planted a wooden cross for him and laid it down on our family grave here in Neu-Ulm and we all spoke a few prayers for Uwe. Thanks for your help Markus In his
October 12 message, Markus describes what he found on the lermanet.com
- http://www.lermanet.com/ - web site, a series of missives
from 2004, describing conditions inside the RPF, sent to the
outside world by someone who was there ("The RPF Insider").
Markus would have been referring in particular to the RPF Insider
message #6, - http://www.xenu-directory.net/critics/rpfinsider/rpfinsider6.html What I wanted to say with this letter is something that I have had a lot of attention on for quite some time. Specifically there are two RPFers that are REALLY SICK AND NEED OF PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL CARE. I will take one at the time. The first RPFer is named Uwe Stuckenbrock. He arrived in the RPF here in PAC around 2001, but I believe he was on the RPF in Happy Valley before he came here. He is diagnosed with MS, Multiple Sclerosis, a disease that from what I understand (from having looked it up in the encyclopedia) there is no known cure for. Over the last 3 years, I have watched him getting worse and worse, though it seems that he is getting some of attention and care. When he arrived he had a hard time walking by himself, and this has deteriorated to the point of needing full time around the clock assistance. He always has one or two other RPFers caring for him, as at this point he cannot even make it to the bathroom by himself. He cannot walk at all now and he has to be taken around in a wheel chair. What I don’t understand is that although he is being treated with a lot of natural foods and juices and vitamins and assists he’s getting worse and worse. He does go to the local hospital sometimes with two people escorting him. He’s getting checkups at LA County Hospital or somewhere, where the church is getting free service on Medicare, because we RPFers simply don’t have any money for any medical bills. Not long ago, we had to prepare a separate room for him on the 2nd floor in the West wing, next to the stairwell towards Catalina Street. He had been in the hospital and in critical condition. When he came back he needed a cleaner, more private environment to recover. We spent several days gutting out a little closed off room (where the other guy was living that I’m going to tell you about, Mike Eves). The space was filthy and outrageously dusty, like it hadn’t been cleaned for months. We repainted the entire room, put up new curtains, put in a new carpet, new cabinets, etc. Uwe was living in a little curtained off space in a room with about 50 other guys.(the room I told you about earlier, with the bunks crammed in and up to the ceiling.) It was decided that Uwe’s condition was more critical than Mike’s, so we were ordered to switch their places!! Mike was recovering from a very critical operation for cancer, and HAD ONE LUNG REMOVED! Having watched this scene going on for years, it is obvious to me that THESE TWO GUYS WILL NEVER MAKE IT OUT OF THE RPF ALIVE! It’s technically impossible, as you have to "make someone else better" i.e. your twin, in order to graduate. These guys don’t even have twins and are just fighting to stay alive. Come on! Uwe cannot even get up to go to the bathroom. What in hell is he doing in the RPF?? He cannot be getting enough professional care and attention and it’s INHUMAN to watch what is going on. All the other RPFers are probably also outraged, but are suppressing their own feelings, in the hope of not missing their own chance to get out of here. I’m actually wondering how long these guys will survive and why they are not granted some forgiveness for whatever they were assigned to the RPF for. Human decency would be to sign them in to a proper nursing home to recover or at least die in peace. The one theory that I have is this: Uwe Stuckenbrock was the International Security Chief at Hemet. O’boy! What would happen if he had the opportunity to let the world know what is going on up there or the security issues that exist all over the planet. I’m sure that he’s kept in the RPF so won’t be able to leak any data out. When he arrived on the RPF he was at the caselevel of OT III and from what I heard, don’t know if this is true, but his MS turned on while he was auditing on this level. So what has been done over the last 3 years to "handle" this? He completed OT III, was audited through OT IV and has been getting sessions on OT V for at least one year - I guess in the hope that he’d be getting better, but he’s NOT IMPROVING! He is getting worse! Further information about Uwe Stuckenbrock’s recent death is scarce, but official investigations are undoubtedly under way.

Exposing Scientology through streaming video
Ces reportages vidéo dénoncent les dangers de la thérapie de scientologie. La scientologie est une nébuleuse sur laquelle ont enquêté de nombreux journalistes. Il suffit de répondre une fois à un questionnaire pour recevoir des prospectus et des invitations. Au départ elle peut même paraître séduisante mais très rapidement les premières dérives apparaissent. |
