Comment on Scientology Fights Fire With Fire, Then Extinguishes It by chuckbeatty77

“One hires a reporter who gets to work thinking up ideas and turning out releases.” -L. Ron Hubbard, “HOW TO HANDLE BLACK PROPAGANDA” church official policy, published 21 Nov 1972. It is Scientology church scriptures to use reporters to do this type of work defending Scientology. Even more reprehensible, or rather irreligious, is Hubbard’s confidential “Black Propaganda” policy for the church sub bureaucratic unit, the one that hires reporters and writers, called the “Office of Special Affairs.” here you go, here are excerpts from L. Ron Hubbard’s marching orders that fuel these behind the scenes tactics that cause Scientology’s recurring controversies:
“OFFICE OF SPECIAL AFFAIRS NETWORK ORDER
15, 18 February 1988 Confidential BLACK PROPAGANDA …. Our propaganda is dirty…. We do this trick by survey and attack…. we become re-classified as attackers and the enemy as bad hats …… We just run propaganda campaigns….It reclassifies our attackers as evil people… Achieve for ourselves a dominance in classifying ourselves and others.” “L. RON HUBBARD, … official Church policy.
“16 FEBRUARY 1969 “Confidential” “TARGETS, DEFENSE” “….. Our next best defense line was being sure the public knew we were a Church.” “…The vital targets on which we must invest most of our time are: …Depopularizing the enemy to a point of total obliteration.” “….Use all other similar groups as allies.” “L. RON HUBBARD” “Founder” “Adopted as official Church policy by CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY INTERNATIONAL”

Comment on It’s Not Just In The U.S. And Ireland by Peter1a

The Residential Schools scandal, while indeed it did include a significant amount of sexual predation, was about even bigger issues. Up here it has had major play for several years including a Royal Commission.

The enforced integration of native children into white society, the removal of all parental and heritage influence, the atrocious conditions in many of these schools. Have had a devastating affect on so many of our native population. We will experience the effects for many years to come.

While not unique to Canada, Australia had a similar scheme, equally bad, it never really got into the USA except I think in a small measure some where in the South West. You were lucky !!

Remember !! The Priesthood is dangerous to your child !!

Thanks for the comment, Peter. You’re 100% right, this is a pervasive, global phenomenon. The Residential School scandal has not gotten much press, but things are different this time around. Covering this behavior up isn’t as easy for the Church as it once was.

This is far from being an isolated incident. There have been lawsuits and judgements against the RC Church all over Canada.

In addition many of the other major churches have been hit with similar results. Mostly over the Residential Schools scandal but there have been other issues as well.
