This forum is for the discussion of Scientology, not Nazism.

But perhaps you are trying to communicate by implication. Perhap you're tacitly implying that criticism of Scientology is equivalent to being a Nazi. Are you? If so, I'd recommend you state your opinion more openly next time, and don't force us to guess.

I'll proceed as if this really is your hidden "question."

The whole Nazi accusation scheme is a current theme running through the town of Clearwater, Florida, where Scientology has a large presence.

A German politician who criticizes Scientology recently visited Clearwater, and an orchestrated display of intimidation and hatred greeted her at her gate in the Tampa airport. A group of fanatical Scientologists somehow ascertained her flight number and arrival time, meeting her at the gate with a shameful and disgusting show of fascism. They yelled "Nazi go home" and "Nazis go back to Germany" and so forth to her, as she walked through the airport.

But perhaps the most disturbing thing about Scientology's attempts to smear others with charges of Nazism, is their own apparent inability to recognize their own groups fascistic tendencies, and the ease with which it's members turn a blind eye to some startling familiar rhetoric uttered by their demi-God, L. Ron Hubbard.

Hitler said the problems of the world were all due to the jews. His solution was to kill them all. Hubbard said the problems of the world are all due to "suppressives." His solution was to eliminate them all. Hubbard wrote several policy letters about how the "low-toned" and suppressive people of the world should be "eliminated, quietly and without sorrow." He said the general tone of society would improve greatly if this were to happen.

Hubbard also ultimately thought Scientology could dominate the entire world, not unlike a much better know despotic megalomaniac of the 20th century. Hubbard euphemistically referred to Scientology's taking over of the planet's political activities as "Clearing the planet." This is still one of the main goals of Scientology today.

Hubbard also knew full well that non-Scientologists would feel threatened by his group of fanatics, so he also wrote a policy letter which read in part "one day, someone will say, this [the activities of Scientology] is illegal. By then, make sure the orgs [Scientology organizations] say whats's legal."

Scientology shamelessly lies and propagandizes. Scientology is internally organized into a highly obedient, quasi-militaristic command structure, complete with ranks, command channels, etc.

Scientology also uses emotional imagery in almost the same exact way as Hitler did in the defining propaganda film of all time, Leni Riefenstahl's "Triumph of the Will." If you've ever seen this propaganda classic, I invite you to also check out David Miscavige's performance at a large Scientology gathering at the L.A. Shrine Auditorium to announce the "victory" of Scientology over the IRS. There's a brief video clip from the this event found in a webbed version of A&E's "Inside Scientology" program (part nine, 6th minute). See if you can see any similarities.

Also, not unlike the Nazis, Scientology to this day, carries an innate institutional dislike of people with physical disabilities, chronic illnesses such as epilepsy, mental illnesses and the like. They even hint at this discriminatory posture in their marketing literature, saying "Scientology makes the able more able." The implication of course, is that if you aren't already able, Scientology doesn't give a shit about you. And this is indeed how Scientology recruiters actually behave.

At a picket of a Scientology org in Toronto Canada, critics of Scientology witnessed a wheelchair bound woman approach the recruiting table that was set up on the sidewalk. The Scientology recruiter dismissed her request for information, telling her bluntly that "Scientology is for the able."

So, which group, Scientologists or critics, is really acting most like a Nazi?
