Re: Dear Bill: what value do you see in scientology?
Scientology is a complicated subject. It's had a very turbulent history, and is loaded with controversies, real and created.
There is something to it, in it's basic form, and a lot of procedures have been developed from those basics, which cover some areas that many other practices and philosophies don't.
I'm not sure that someone not already familiar and studied in the subject could find their way through the maze very easily.
The church of Scientology is something I believe to have been subverted in much the way the US gov't has, by possibly the same sources, which goes a long way towards explaining many of the controversies. Scientology showed some promise in the area of spiritual awareness and action, which the PTB felt threatened by, which is probably why it had to be infiltrated and perverted towards their agenda.
It now has that distinctive PTB taint, that is easily recognizable. Too bad.
