The Green Mile is a movie where the magical black man wrongly dies and the white man who let it happen lives forever.

I usually say that i can't judge anyone by how they find peace but this right here is straight up stupid/sad/painful/unfortunate/nothingpositive.

it's like the catholic church back in the day without the wars and violence

Batshit crazy... Operation Freakout, Operation Dynamite, Operation Snow white. COS needs to be disbanded and its leadership jailed.. I always felt those fuckers were blackmailing famous people and here it is.. SMMFH

It sounded like most organized religions to me. I found a lot of it very funny especially the bill maher interview with the wives from the hole. Poor John Travolta.

The Church of Scientology has long been a controversial institution among both the religious community and entertainment business. But the latest documentary from Oscar-winning director Alex Gibney, "Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief," explores the secrets of the organization through interviews with former high-ranking officials and former members in a way never seen before.

Based on the 2013 book of the same name by Lawrence Wright, "Going Clear" not only exposes details about Scientology but also serves as an in-depth explainer for those unfamiliar with the group. The Church has spoken out against the film (read their full statement here) as have its celebrity members. But whether you've studied Scientology closely or merely know it as "the religion with Tom Cruise," watching "Going Clear" is a powerful, stunning and emotionally overwhelming experience that will likely leave you with your mouth agape. Here are the most shocking allegations put forth in "Going Clear," which made its HBO debut on Sunday night:

1. L. Ron Hubbard's Scientology creation story
When Scientologists reach level OT III, they are shown the "secret materials," as director and former member Paul Haggis described them: Hubbard's hand-written account of the creation myth. According to this, 75 million years ago a galactic dictator named Xenu froze people and dropped their bodies into volcanoes. From there, the disembodied spirits, or thetans, apparently jumped into newborns bodies. According to Hubbard, these multiple thetans crowded in our bodies are the source of our anxieties and fears.


2. Hubbard spent time in a black magic cult
Before founding Scientology, Hubbard befriended rocket and chemical engineer Jack Parsons who was a part of black magic cult Ordo Templi Orientis (OTO), which followed the teachings of Aleister Crowley. According to "Going Clear," Hubbard became Parsons scribe and assistant on a magical operation to impregnate a goddess-like woman to create the anti-Christ.

3. Members were allegedly thrown overboard as punishment
Hubbard created Ethics, or punishments for his auditors who made mistakes during sessions. They were then pushed overboard on his ships into the water, which was "30 feet, 35 feet" below, according to Hana Whitfield, one of the original Sea Org members.

4. Hubbard told his second wife he murdered their daughter
When Sara Northup, Hubbard's second wife, threatened to leave him unless he got psychiatric help, he reportedly kidnapped their daughter Alexis. According to written accounts from Northup, Hubbard told her he "cut into little pieces" and dropped her in a river. Then he would call back and tell Sara that their daughter was alive.

5. There was a Scientology "prison camp"
Former Church member Sylvia "Spanky" Taylor, who was once the liaison between the Church and John Travolta, was sent to the Rehabilitation Project Force (RPF), or what she described as the "prison camp where you'd go for re-indoctrination." According to the film, when sent to the RPF, people would have to do hard labor for "30 hours on, 3 hours off," eat table scraps and sleep on dirty, wet mattresses.

6. The FBI raid on the Church was the biggest in history at the time
On July 8, 1977, the FBI raided Scientology's Los Angeles, Hollywood and Washington, D.C. locations, which at the time was the bureau's biggest raid ever.

7. The Church stole government documents
According to the film, in the '70s, many Scientologists were directed to get jobs in Department of Justice and IRS offices in order to steal documents against or relating to the Church.

8. The Church apparently has a blackmail folder on John Travolta
According to Wright in the film, when there were rumors of Travolta wanting to leave Scientology, the Church created a "black PR package" that has "all the damaging material" from his private auditing sessions. Travolta also reportedly refused to have his sessions video taped, but secret cameras were hidden anyway.

9. The Church investigated the IRS
One of the Church's goals was to be recognized by the IRS as a fully tax-exempt religion, according to former senior executive of the Church Mark "Marty" Rathbun. Thousands of Scientologists reportedly filed 2,400 total lawsuits against IRS employees, and private investigators were sent to IRS conventions to obtain information. According to journalist Tony Ortega, Scientology leader David Miscavige told the IRS commissioner that the lawsuits would go away if the Church was given tax-exempt status. The Church was granted exemption in October 1993.

10. Tom Cruise and the Church allegedly wire-tapped Nicole Kidman's phone
According to the film, the Church noticed Tom Cruise slipping away from Scientology during his marriage to Nicole Kidman. Cruise reportedly said he wanted to have Kidman's phone wiretapped, which the Church did at his request.

11. Cruise may have had employees pimp his cars for 40 cents an hour
Sea Org members make 40 cents an hour, according to Ortega, who says, "I don't think there's any way Tom Cruise is not aware of that." According to the film, they have "tricked out his cars and motorcycles" and hanger in Santa Monica, California, and installed the audiovisual equipment at his home.

12. The Church supposedly found Cruise a new girlfriend
According to Wright, Cruise was "overheard to complain that he needed a new girlfriend" when he was in Spain at the opening of a new Scientology center. The Church then found a young Scientologist, Nazanin Boniadi, and reportedly had her braces removed, bought her $20,000 of clothes and colored her hair "to Cruise's liking." She was then told she would be Cruise' girlfriend, but the relationship soon ended. Boniadi apparently signed a non-disclosure agreement with the Church and has since become a well-known actress in "Homeland," "Iron Man," among other films and shows.

13. Paul Haggis left because of the the Church's homophobic stance
Oscar-winning filmmaker Paul Haggis ("Crash," "Casino Royale") left Scientology in 2009 after 30 years when his two gay daughters told him how they were being treated and harassed by the Church. According to Church doctrines, the religion views homosexuality as a disease. Haggis then wrote a now-famous letter of his resignation from the Church.

14. Scientology's book value is about $1.5 billion
Ortega obtained recent tax records that revealed the main three tiers of the Church (which is a non-profit organization) have a combined book value of $1.5 billion.

15. Sea Org members were allegedly tortured to the sounds of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody"
In 2004, Miscaviage apparently ordered the top members of the Sea Org to live in what was known as The Hole in the Chuch's secret Gold Base in California. In the film, former members say they were told to confess their crimes against the Church in order to leave The Hole. Beyond beatings and one man being ordered to "mop up the bathroom floor with his tongue," another method of abuse was when members were forced to play musical chairs to "Bohemian Rhapsody." Those participating were "fighting to stay" in the Church: whoever didn't have a seat when the music stopped was expelled from the Church.

16. If members leave the Church their friends & family are forced to "disconnect"
The biggest reason to not leave the Church for many Scientologists is fear of "disconnection." This is when all friends and family members still with the Church are told to cut ties with those who leave, or those deemed Potential Trouble Sources (PTS), or Suppressive Persons (SPs). Many former members included in the film haven't seen or spoken to their family or friends since they left.

"Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief" airs again on Monday, March 30 at 9:00 p.m. ET on HBO.

i figured the doc wouldn't _really_ go all in b/c HBO would be skurred as it has too much to lose since the network might want to work w/Scientologists in the future.

but maybe not? or are these revelations not very controversial or som'n?

there are reports that they hired 160 lawyers in preparation for its release.

I think it's a much needed documentary. That "religion" needed to be exposed.

I didn't watch the documentary but the Tampa Bay Times has a long running investigation into the COS (they have a big headquarters here in Clearwater). A lot of the stuff described in this list fits right into stuff I've read in their stories.

Here's the link to their previous reports.

Shoot, both "South Park" and Bill Maher told the "Scientology" origin story straight and played it for laughs, but in the doc, it really comes across how fucking insane the whole thing was. Especially with the revelation that Hubbard at one point acknowledged that he was likely suffering from mental illness in a letter to the Navy, but never received any help.

1.) Scientology's root mysticism was rooted out of the OTO Crowley black magic tradition, and the "OT8" as the highest level of a scientologist is in direct reflection to the OTO etymology sorcery. Hubbard and Parsons engaged in wild sex rituals (masturbating on a tabernacle together) as Crowley would invoke Aiwass (a 4th dimensional grey prototype that was the only entity that responded to Crowley's rites/chants/mantras). It's a disastrous start to Hubbard's Scientologist foundation and should be called out for what it is.

2.) I believe that Tom Cruise is basically been blackmailed by the Church and probably has a ton of secrets that they threaten to release to the public if he ever defects or speaks out agains them.

3.) The IRS is some punk-ass cowards. You're paying taxes but this crooked, illegal, spiritually bankrupt business is not. And you should be pissed.

Having Dianetics seminars during Saviours' Day Conferences and all.

I know they both have spaceships and aliens in their mythology but did the scientology get in the mix?

there's a reason why the "leaders" of both Scientology and NOI (Hubbard/Elijah)
often displayed morally questionable (euphemism) behavior by sexually taking advantage
of young women, which in some instances, was pedophilic in nature. But that would of course make sense once you realize the origins of these systems: systems crafted by men who sought power, were flooded with lust and false-messianic epistemology, and did whatever they had to to do in order to manipulate the current by practicing wobbled magic that leaves a ripple effect of lunacy to everything that touches it.

it's Farrakhan's "jump the shark" moment....but considering there is no de facto next in line with anywhere NEAR his charisma and he's operating on a short time line as it is....it falls in perfect line with Charlatan Law.

Don't get me wrong....I have MUCH respect for the lives Farrakhan has helped....but let's not pretend like the Nation is an actual religion. The biggest benefit I see from the Nation is that it introduces his followers to the Qu'ran and that can be a bridge to WHEREVER. Fuck that Message to the Blackman shit tho

How did COS get people to cough up $500 in the 1950s? What kind of marketing/subliminal wizardry did they use?

I don't understand how COS first got off the ground.

It's about knowing how to appeal to those type of people and collect as much money as possible in as short a time as possible.

I don't know much about history, but perhaps people during this time were just ready to believe into something new/different. And maybe there wasn't enough alternative solutions. I'm just shocked how easily they were brainwashed.

But also remember that "Dianetics" wasn't explicitly marketed as religion, but self-help. There has been and always will be a market for self-help.

And it's not about people being brain-washed "easily"; it's a long process. Many people buy "Dianetics" and don't follow through. It's all about finding the people who are willing to pay even more money and play and then play the long game.

1) Anyone think Ron Hubbard was held captive and was probably murdered by inside members? Maybe he had a heart and didn't believe any of that stuff anymore and wanted to rescue others? Maybe he went into full lunacy and certain members hid him away?

2) Its INSANE how the COS is not upfront about their beliefs. What other religion is like that? So in order to learn more about the religion it takes years, money, and auditing? I thought all that crazy volcano concept was stuff they believed on day one. That's why I couldn't take them seriously. But NO!!! It took them 8 years and higher levels to find out about that. Yooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

3) Tom Cruises involvement is too interesting. When watching the part about "Eyes Wide Shut" it sounded like Tom was taking shots at the COS. And during the doc, Tom's laughter and smiles looked sooo forced/fake . . . like he was improperly nursing his inner issues. And I found it funny how Kate Holmes wasn't mentioned.

In my opinion, Hubbard was a C.I.A thought experiment gone wild. He exhibited the same qualities as the others.

I think the reason why it's allowed to go on is because of the revenue it creates.

And Kanye too? It seems that whoever Tom Cruise comes into contact with, he tries to convert. I've heard that Will is one and that shitty movie, I forget the name, had elements based in Scientology. Kind of like how John Travolta's shitty movie, "Battlefield Earth" supposedly had elements of Scientology.

That whole NOI and Scientology link is surprising as hell (...if it's true). I never thought Farrakhan would ever go for it. Hell....Jay-Z, Rihanna, Kanye, etc. are not Illuminati, they are all Scientologists. lol

Ex Scientologist and fixer says Will ain't on that Xenu

Former Scientology Senior Executive: ‘Will Smith Is Not a Scientologist’

link: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/03/04/former-scientology-senior-executive-will-smith-is-not-a-scientologist.html#


We sat down with ex-Church of Scientology fixer and senior executive Mike Rinder and Scientology expert Tony Ortega, who claim that the rumors about Will Smith are false.

For years, there’s been rampant speculation that Will Smith, the blockbuster star of alien-themed films like Independence Day, Men in Black, and After Earth, was a card-carrying member of the Church of Scientology.

It’s inescapable. When Smith’s teenage children, Jaden and Willow, gave an out-there interview to The Guardian and claimed they could control time, several gossip rags were quick to point to their dad’s alleged “Scientology-supporting” beliefs as a possible reason for his kids’ unique perspective on the world. There have been tabloid reports that Will Smith’s former business partner, James Lassiter, allegedly warned the Fresh Prince about not letting Scientology “get in the way” of his career; Scientology defector Jason Beghe said Smith was “supposedly dabbling in Scientology,” and a former principal at Will and Jada Smith’s school, New Village Academy in Calabasas, California, claimed that the curriculum was “100 percent” Scientology-focused. Hell, The Hollywood Reporter even got an ex-Scientologist to review Smith’s colossal bomb, After Earth, over its alleged Scientology themes.

The link, it seems, originates from Smith’s close friendship with Scientology’s most famous face, Tom Cruise.

“They have not attracted a major star in 25 years. The only young Scientologists on the celebrity scene were all born into it. Beck was born into it. Giovanni Ribisi was born into it.”

“I was introduced to Scientology through Tom, and I’m a student of world religion,” Smith told Access Hollywood in 2007. “I was raised in a Baptist household and went to a Catholic school, but the ideas of the Bible are 98 percent the same ideas as Scientology; 98 percent the same ideas as Buddhism or Hinduism.”

Smith added, “How you gon’ not know nothing about Scientology and attack Tom ? It’s dangerous, and it’s ignorant. How am I going to condemn someone for what they believe and I believe God was born from a pregnant virgin?”

We sat down with ex-Church of Scientology fixer and senior executive Mike Rinder and Scientology expert Tony Ortega, who claim that the rumors about Will Smith are false.

Well, according to Scientology’s former fixer/senior executive and the most knowledgeable Scientology-covering journalist, Smith is not a Scientologist.

The Daily Beast sat down with Mike Rinder and Tony Ortega, two of the subjects of Alex Gibney’s eye-opening HBO documentary-exposé, Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief, in theaters March 13 (and premiering on HBO March 29). Rinder was a second-generation Scientologist who was shipped off to Sea Org at the age of 6. Later, from 1982 to 2007, he served on the board of directors of Church of Scientology International and was their executive director of the Office of Special Affairs—essentially acting as one of their primary “fixers” responsible for putting out all manner of legal and PR fires. He left Scientology in 2007 after a dispute with its draconian chief, David Miscavige. Ortega is a journalist who’s been covering Scientology since 1995 and nailed several scoops while at The Village Voice. He started The Underground Bunker blog, which focuses on Scientology coverage, and is the executive editor of The Raw Story website.

When asked if Smith was a Scientologist, they both responded in unison: “Will Smith is not a Scientologist.” (Smith's representatives refused to comment.)

Ortega expanded a bit. “There’s not that many celebrities in Scientology, and the young ones were born into it, and the other ones people cite—Cruise, Travolta, and Kirstie Alley—got into it in the ’70s and ’80s. They have not attracted a major star in 25 years. The only young Scientologists on the celebrity scene were all born into it. Beck was born into it. Giovanni Ribisi was born into it.”

For years, Rinder was tasked with putting out many of the PR fires pertaining to acclaimed Scientologist John Travolta, basically acting as the Church of Scientology’s resident Olivia Pope (when I make the comparison, he laughs). When asked why so many celebrities have been drawn to the mysterious “religion” over the years, he pauses.

“Scientology works to attract celebrities and has a Celebrity Center right in Hollywood designed to cater to them and give them special treatment—red carpet, secret entrances where you can sneak in and out—and the other part of it is that Scientology presents itself as a self-help religion,” explains Rinder. “You learn and are indoctrinated into Scientology by the idea that you will improve things in your life.”

GOAT of his era......long live Prince.....God is alive....

kinda makes sense for it to incorporate things he believed in.

briefcase with that crazy ass Xenu opera story in it? I woulda been like 'nigga is you crazy?"

One of my H.S. classmates is a Scientologist. He was/is highly intelligent so I can see how he believes in that shit. But he is highly successful. Dude is my age (36) and is retired. Dude worked at The White House and shit straight out of undergrad. Dude is also openly gay.

i guess he felt it was already such a big part of who he was that he found ways to justify it.

Travolta and Cruise are a trip

BUT PALE in comparison to LRH and Muscaviege (sp?)

and man, those ex wives (on Anderson Cooper) of the men who where speaking in the doc, shit. how would y'all feel about that type of erasure... yikes. also the mom talkin about her daughter made the choice to "disassociate". ouch

power and greed are a muthafucker, pple just want something to latch onto

.

and that's only based on all the shit I heard from my co-worker who actually read it

i don't for my own interest I need to go deeper, but if there is deeper, jeez

i wonder if John and Tom are shamed out of the org as this and the other one coming down the pike get more shine. I mean most of my friends on FB are talking about it since it dropped

Miscaviage gave his dog a commanding rank and demands people salute the dog.

Hubbard had a penchant for young girls as his personal servants on his ships. Hubbard lied about pretty much everything at every turn at all times. His "magic" phase was extensive and include a story of Hubbard conjuring a red haired goddess at his doorstep during a session. Much of this "magic" was sexual in nature.

Sea Org members had to get permission to have children. Abortions were mandatory for those who violated the mandate.

Hubbard teaches that anyone who leaves the church does so in order to protect the church from their own suppressive thoughts and deeds. People are instructed to remain in the bubble of scientology and the church uploads software to members computers to catch and block key words related to the church. Even then, any media that isn't church sanctioned is frowned upon. If you're doing something that is frowned upon, expect to wind up in the hole.

When people leave the church and wish to do so on good terms, a written confession of their "crimes" is required and if the "crimes" being confessed are insufficiently salacious, church leaders just make up something salacious.

Oh, and they basically murdered a woman named Lisa McPherson.

There's just so much information in the book, so many stories that the film either doesn't get to or briefly touches on. They did a bang up job with the doc but the book breaks it alllllll the way down. It's incredibly information dense and Wright is heavy on footnotes and clarification, so if there's a disputed version of a story he makes sure to include the disputed version. He's pretty even with the facts.

I don't want to read the book because I was homicidal just from seeing the documentary, but I can't stop reading about it online so maybe I should just read the book.

How is Miscavige still a living human. Someone needs to take him out.

They called Hubbard the "commodore" too, which makes this whole thing sound eerily similar to Boardwalk Empire.

Many systems have been founded on occult ritual with magicians of various orders
calling mantra, working with geometry, and manipulating matter to various degrees
in order to birth a new system of thought/faith/worship etc....

What's great about this documentary and the deeper information on Hubbard and Scientology is that it gives us a very real insight into dark corners of the world.

Whereas many just dismiss this and say "oh all of that magic stuff isn't true - it's just hogwash" - what's relevant here is that people like Crowley, Parsons, and Hubbard did more than just "believe" in the OTO brand of magic - they openly practiced it and lived it, and they made a huge influence on the dimension with their work -- from jet propulsion inventions to spiritual technology, pop music to New Age epistemology - their work has its fingerprints in many areas of modern life. Crowley has had a major influence on artists from the Beatles to Jay-Z, and Hitler's paranormal division was founded in the aftermath of Crowley's experiences with the 4th dimension -- Hitler sent SS all the way through the north/south pole in search of Agrtha (core earth) which was revealed during Crowley's rituals.

So yes - masturbating on tabernacles while chanting mantras and believing that the anti-christ is going to be birthed from this red-headed scarlet woman is wild stuff to think about it - thus most just rebuke its validity altogether, but it's very real to those who practice it, and many of those people are in high positions of power within finance/banking/religious order/societal frameworks.

So we don't really have the luxury to pretend it doesn't exist.
