Notice: Fredric Rice may have removed segments of the replies given to questions if they contained copyrighted materials. After a very short while, Scientology "experts" refused to answer questions and started cut-and-pasting copyrighted cult propaganda. Additionally I removed URLs in some of the replies, and left them in others. And it's also important to note that eventually the unfortunate "Greg Churilov" cultist was ejected from askme.com for his typical Scientological behavior.

FredricRice asked this question on 5/9/2000:

So far I've only read fragments from OT1 through OT8. Supposedly OT9, 10, and 11 are supposed to be released soon.

Does anybody know if they have been or whether fragments have been released into the public domain?

I see that:

OT8 - Truth Revealed
OT9 - Character
OT10 - Operating
OT11 - Future

are scheduled.

We already know some fragments of OT8, of course. The truth is that Hubbard claimed Jesus Christ was a lover of young boys in that document. But what about the other three?

lrfarny gave this response on 5/9/2000:

The forgery that was circulated a few years ago has nothing to do with OT VIII, so you have nothing.

Besides, you'll never see any of these OT levels; your conduct has debarred you from services.

Tell me, though, what is it like to believe in nothing? It is so far from my experience that I have to ask.

You must be unable to look at yourself in the mirror.

Sad, really, especially now that you are getting older and have to actually confront your own mortality.

You have a nice day, now.

You rated this answer a 1.

So once again you not only lied, you applied another disrespectful speech and did your best to besmirch me. I understand that's Hubbard policy but it doesn't answer my question.

OT8 is a Scientology document because lawyers for Scientology have repeatedly sued people for making it available publically. The rest of the publically-available OT documents are also Scientology documents because the Los Angeles offices ordered followers to check out the court documents and sit with them so that nobody else outside of Scientology could obtain copies (it didn't work.)

If you know when OT9, 10, and 11 will be available, or whether fragments of these documents are available, why not just answer the question? Since you don't know whether these documents are out yet, the thing to do would be to not answer.

Some other expert will know whether these texts are available, I'm sure.
