Hello, I've never met a Scientologist. Can you tell us some more positive things about the processes?

Funny how people react to this thread...
if the thread title was Christianity: The MONSTER behind the cult, everybody will be calling it bloody hate Speech.
Before you "expose" the monster of Scientology, please expose the monster that has been around for 2,000 years.

I've always despised this cult. Fully intended to join the Anon protests last year, but failed through my own busy life.
People need to make sure as many people know about this cult as possible,
Every parent on Earth has to aware that the cult is going after the kids. They'll do it through paying for camps, mentoring, "spiritual" information, leaflets, drug awareness, you name it there'll be there in a front group pushing their agenda.
Have a search for their seminar on youtube, where their freak of a leader describes their military attack on modern medicine. That alone should scare the crap out of the American government.
And, at your earliest opportunity, check to see if there is an "org" in your state, and then push for it to be closed.
Seriously, this is one of the most evil and dangerous cults on Earth.
And, expect a member of their propaganda force to pop in here any moment now. They get everywhere. They spend their days in an office chair on-line attacking any person who states anything against the Co$.
My point is this, if you take percentages, Christians do not physically harass those who leave the church.
Nor do they harass the press.
.
Nor do they break into people's houses and hotel rooms and offices of government..
ALL of which Scientology, by the percentages, DOES do. Documented.

Well there are not that many scientologists on ATS. So thinking that the one that pops in to defend himself is a part of the "propaganda force" is ignorant beyond belief.

That would explain why people high up like Cruise and Travolta stick with them.
I wonder if this is how Christianity began.
"Auditing" in the context of Scientology is an activity where a person trained in "auditing" listens and gives auditing commands to a subject, which Scientologists refer to as a "preclear".[citation needed] Critics of "auditing" have suggested that it has similarities with cult style programming and some behavior modification techniques which result in psychological manipulation of the subject. According to the Church of Scientology's official guidelines, all communications during auditing are confidential.
Auditing involves the use of "processes," which are sets of questions asked or directions given by an auditor. When the specific objective of any one "process" is achieved, the "process" is ended and another can then be used. By doing this, the subjects are said to be able to free themselves from unwanted barriers that inhibit their natural abilities.[citation needed] Scientologists state that the person being audited is completely aware of everything that happens and becomes even more alert as auditing progresses.[citation needed]
The auditor is obliged by the church's doctrine to maintain a strict code of conduct toward the preclear called the Auditor's Code.[citation needed] Auditing is said to be successful only when the auditor conducts himself in accordance with the Code. A violation of the Auditor's Code is considered a high crime under Scientology law.
The code outlines a series of 29 promises which include pledges:
1. “Not to evaluate for the preclear or tell him what he should think about his case in session”
2. “Not to invalidate the preclear’s case or gains in or out of session.”
3. “Never to use the secrets of a preclear divulged in session for punishment or personal gain.”

Hey, guys.
I'm a Scientologist and I was in the Sea Org for over 25 years.
If it was really as bad as these ranters say there is no way I would have stayed that long.
Did you ever stop to step back and wonder why there is such a strong push against Hubbard and the groups he helped set up?
Remember, he was one of the people who warned us about the NWO. That's back in 1967, before a lot of you were born and before the time when the stories and debate on the subject really got going.
So, which side do you think Scientology is really on?
Are people being paid to concoct this stuff?
L. Ron Hubbard knew a lot of people. When he was in L.A. he knew all sorts of people connected with the entertainment business. He had friends and acquaintances at JPL. He knew psychiatrists. He knew criminals. And he knew a lot of honest and hard-working people, too. He was researching the human mind, after all.
"MAKE MONEY. MAKE MORE MONEY. MAKE OTHER PEOPLE PRODUCE SO AS TO MAKE MORE MONEY."
- L. Ron Hubbard, Hubbard Communications Office Policy Letter, 9 March 1972, MS OEC 384
"The purpose of the suit is to harass and discourage rather than to win. The law can be used very easily to harass, and enough harassment on somebody who is simply on the thin edge anyway, well knowing that he is not authorized, will generally be sufficient to cause his professional decease. If possible, of course, ruin him utterly."
- L. Ron Hubbard, A MANUAL ON THE DISSEMINATION OF MATERIAL, 1955
Some find his discoveries useful.
Others find them threatening.
Since when can anyone survive without making money?
That was his financial advise to his organizations. No one over quotes his other advise to his organizations, which was, basically, to make money by providing excellent and valuable service to people who come in and want service.
What is lost in the fray is that Hubbard came up with a technology that actually seems to work.
The NWO is very scared of this technology because it makes it very difficult for them to hide their crimes, and it gives people a way to recover from their abuses.
So I suggest the those who really want to deny ignorance give Scientology another chance.
