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 5/10/2000:

Since L. Ron Hubbard demands that all of the people who he labels "1.1" are to be "disposed of quietly and without sorrow," I got to wondering which internal department would be the one responsible for the extermination effort. Would that be Department 20? The Guardian Office / Office of Special Affairs?

I know that this fascist group would never be able to accomplish the political groundwork needed to "clear the planet," as they call it, but Hubbard must have had _some_ internal department in mind when he penned this "run down."

Anyone know for certain if it's GO/OSA?

Hi Fredric,

I think it's pointless to speculate on this topic. That's all any of us could do, because right now, Scientology is not actively seeking to perform this duty.

In the world of the Internet, the CoS will never have the political power and authority they want. They can't even keep their most precious secrets under lock and key. There is no conceivable way that they could ever win enough political power to carry out the "deletion" of people below 2.0 on the tone scale.

At least, so long as people keep agitating and warning the public that this is what Scientology scripture says.

I think you're right that the Church of Scientology will never apply the ideal, yet the existance of the GO/OSA seems to indicate that they would love to if they could acquire the political power it would take.

And I think you're right about the Internet pulling the cult's claws. Due to the hysteria of "emenies" that in any event ignore Scientology (such as the psychology industry) they're still left with the desire, I think.
