Last night, I was thinking about getting back into my I read #Dianetics #SoYouDontHaveTo project. But I decided I wasn't in the mood for #CoS nonsense.
Then I fell asleep, and dreamt that the ghost of #LRonHubbard gave me a copy of #GoingClear by #LawrenceWright (an anti-Co$ #book)
I really, really hope that was just my subconscious; I don't want to be haunted by L. Ron or his #thetans ... even if he/they are sorry the whole #Scientology thing. Fuck 'em.

#LRonHubbard promises the reader that #Dianetics is:
1) "an organized science of thought"
2) which "contains a therapeutic technique ... with assurance of complete cure"
3) that "produces a condition of ability and rationality" and gives a complete insight into the full potentialities of the mind"
#LRH then makes some pretty strong claims that imply that Dianetics is the Universal Theory of Science of the Mind, but provides no evidence of any research.

Back home and attempting to read #Dianetics by #LRonHubbard .
Page 3, "How to Read this Book" on using simple language to convey ideas:
" 'Basic Language' has been used, much of the nomenclature is colloquial; the pedantic has not only been employed, it has also been ignored."
That's an awful lot of $2 words for that particular topic. #Hubbardsplaining
#dianetics #lronhubbard #hubbardsplaining
I'm considering doing an "I #read #Dianetics so you don't have to" thread, so I've started the first chapter.
Y'all.
I've listened to SO MANY #LRonHubbard interviews & watched SO MUCH #Scientology trash that I'm "hearing" it in his voice & his cadence.
I've gotten through the forward and whatnots, and I am only only page 3 of the book. I don't know if I can do this.

Was curious about the origins of the #Scientology #SeaOrg, why the ridiculous navy outfits, so I looked it up. #LRonHubbard lived at sea and in ports for years, a man without a country, and the early days in the late 1960s were rather bleak. Well, bleak for most everyone except for tyrannical "Commodore of the Sea Org," who had young women waiting on him while he was raking in over $100k/week.

Today is L. Ron Hubbard's Birthday
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L._Ron_Hubbard
Lafayette Ronald Hubbard (March 13, 1911 β January 24, 1986) was an American author, primarily of science fiction and fantasy stories. Hubbard became a well-known and prolific writer for pulp fiction magazines during the 1930s.
I have a special collector's edition of "Final Blackout" by L. Ron Hubbard for sale here:

@godpod #Scientology is a #scam. I tried reading one of the original #LRonHubbard books. Total garbage #ScienceFiction at best. And on THIS he builds a #religion Like all religions, it's a helluva money maker.
Prime example of why (it's my belief) that all religions are based on #Fiction.......begging your pardon God but you know what I mean. π
#ChildTrafficing nor the #CoverUp is surprising and needs to be investigated NOW. But only if you ACTUALLY care about children......

@whoosh Iβll have a listen, but Iβm not really a fan of #JenniferBurnsβ analysis of #AynRand. Sheβs stuck on how #conservatives and #libertarians embraced Randβs #capitalist politics without giving any credence to the fact that Rand rejected both as having missed the philosophical basis of #Objectivism that justifies the politics.
Sheβs also stuck on comparing Objectivism to a religion or cult, albeit acknowledging it has more substance than say, #LRonHubbardβs #Scientology.
