Many religions, notably the Catholics, vilify both oral sex and homosexuality. Why? Because they want to increase the numbers of faithful through lots of children.The man had numerous rampant homosexual sex affairs at a time when other unmarried SO members were getting sent straight to the RPF for oral sex!

But the Sea Org discourages pregnancy and childbirth even more than the Chinese government does. So why even bother?

Interesting post, Helena! I never thought of it that way.. it got me thinking.
Religions/cults always seem to dictate to their followers what's right and what's wrong, including sexual aspects of their lives.
Hmm, wonder why.
That "Things are better now that we got rid of all those SP assholes." PR line was used on me back in 1991 when I was being recovered for the Sea Org at ASHO Foundation.
It's not just bullshit, it's old bullshit.
This isn't earth shaking news: the second dynamic is the most screwed up for everyone. Even saints, like Oprah, have problems there.
People cut too much slack for Hubbard. He violated his own SP rules left right and center, and "case on post" is his most consistent violation. He wove his case right into the totalitarian rules that the followers of official Scientology are trapped executing on one another ruining and threateaning to ruin each other's lives, and NEVER are they allowed to question the wisdom or efficacy of his 'tech" or "policy."
Scientology is an ultra catch 22 totalitarianism making Hubbard the hero and all who fail at his system the villains. What better bad fiction story with a permanent bad ending for the followers!
I just saw a doc recently called "Dave wants to fly" and it is about the TM movement, and goes into how Maharishi preached abstinence, but was banging the cute young thangs hisself - I think it is a herd / Alpha Bull thing. They being so smitten with him, he would have an affair with one and when the infatuation wore off, he moved on to someone else. When the woman in the film asked Maharishi about what she should do if she got preggers, he said we'll get you married really quickly - meaning not to him....Religions/cults always seem to dictate to their followers what's right and what's wrong, including sexual aspects of their lives.

*Almost* all meter reads are unconsciously created as a show of compliance to gain approval from a perceived authority figure.
Once again the Co$ goes after a person that doesn't agree with them. News? Hardly.
Debbie Cook is the latest in what seems like an endless list of good people the Co$ has decided to make an enemy.
Gee, Debbie was in the SO 29 years, Capt of Flag for 17 years - can you say dedicated ? Loyal ? Highly Productive ? Valuable ?
And all in a sudden turns out she is an SP? That makes sense to not even the village idiot !
Same story for David Mayo ? Yep.
Same story for Mitoff ?
Same story for Heber ?
Same story for countless others all the way back to John MacMaster.
How is it the people in scn can not see this repeated over and over and over as NOT the absolute proof positive the "tech" flat out does not work it would have caught each and every one of these people IF in fact they were evil. It didn't.
That only leaves the SP stuff as it is applied is purely political.
The beauty of that ? As I have said before, people are starting to lip service to " disconnection " by telling the MAA " I hereby disconnect from ( blank ) " and then calling ( blank ) and saying " Ignore the disconnect letter. You know I'd never disconnect from you ".
And all but the most dense have figured out to how to " think of something nice " and make the meter FN whenever they want an FN.
The house of cards the Co$ is built upon is coming down.
You know I was just thinking of how many people who were aboard the good ship Hubbard who have either left or been declared and that it occured to me that those boats must been loaded with SP's! I mean Hubbards crew suppressives! And now all of those people who worked with Miscavige are finding their way out of the door.
Is it only suppressives that make it to the top in Scientology?
Since yesterday I was searching a quote of Karen about the money in a IAS bank account. I was pretty much certain she had mentionned 1,5 billion $ (debbie is talking about 1 billion$)
I would be curious to see the the figures are from wich time as there is half of a billion of difference. I wouldn't be surprise that the current figure would be more than this as some Idea Deal Org are sold
