(Phoenix, AZ) Even as the U.S. government expressed its concerns over the German government’s infringement of individual rights because of religious affiliation with respect to Scientology (ref. The U.S. Department of State’s 2006 Report on International Religious Freedom), the very thing that Germany is attempting to protect its citizens from was playing out completely unnoticed/ignored by the U.S. government in the Indiana State judicial system.


Officials from the German federal and state Offices for the Protection of the Constitution (OPCs) used publicly available information regarding the practice of Scientology, mostly from written materials and from public events, to determinethat Scientology's ideology and practices are totalitarian in nature and pose a threat to the democratic constitutional order and the mental health of its citizens as well as violate human rights—information that is readily available, but that the U.S. government has chosen to ignore. A few practices of Scientology worth mentioning are:


  1. “Dead-agenting,” or the use of Ad Hominem in the form of libel/slander to neutralize opponents of Scientology by attacking their character instead of addressing their argument;
  2. “Disconnection,” or deprivation of reality testing by abridging all contact/communication with friends/family;
  3. “Fair game” or depriving persons deemed suppressive to the practice of scientology of their civil/human rights; and
  4. “Auditing,” or the use of authoritarian hypnosis and abuse of transference to develop a dependency on the practices of Scientology without the scientologist’s knowledge or consent.




In order to protect its citizens and to thwart Scientology’s expansion, German government agencies at the federal and state level and private sector entities have wisely established rules and procedures that discriminate against Scientology as an organization and/or against individual members of the Church.



Due to the U.S. government’s ignorance, the Church of Scientology’s strategy to create a favorable environment for Scientology's expansion by working to win allies among society's power brokers and opinion leaders has been extremely successful in this country. In Scientology Today, Heber Jentzsch, president of the Church of Scientology International wrote, "We need to be able to approach the right people in order to get things done. We need to find out how to reach key people in the media, in government, in the control points of society, the people who rule things." Underscoring the campaign's breadth and determination, a pullout questionnaire entitled "Communication Lines to the World" was inserted in the Scientology newspaper. It asked Scientologists to list their connections to people in six areas: 1. POLITICS: "This would be political figures on a local, state or national level, such as local city officials, mayors, governors, senators, congressmen, and members of parliaments. It would also include government agency officials and civil servants." 2. MEDIA: "This would be any media terminals that you know, such as owners or proprietors of magazines, newswire services, newspapers or publishing houses, and radio networks or stations and publishers and editors of any type of news media." 3. LEGAL: "This would be any judges, law enforcement officials, lawyers, barristers and so on." 4. FINANCIAL / CORPORATE: "This would be any members of the board or presidents, vice presidents or other senior officials/executives with banks or other financial institutions (such as savings and loan companies, credit unions, etc.) Financiers (this could be government or private industry) stockbrokers, financial advisers and commodities brokers." 5. ENTERTAINMENT / CELEBRITIES: "This would be any producers or directors in the stage, motion pictures or television; actors, artists, writers and any opinion leaders in these areas."

In HCO PL 12 January 1973 policy letter, Hubbard, the founder of the Church of Scientology, states: "The most important action to undertake when going about making a Safe Point is to carefully and painstakingly find out who exactly are the Top Dogs in the area in financial and political circles and their associates and their connections, and to what each one is hostile."

All of this information is sent to the intelligence branch of Scientology. (Keep in mind one of the major activities of a secret society is turning its members into deployable agents who will fanatically use their resources and connections to forward the goals of the group or knock out the enemies of the group.)

The U.S. government’s failure to recognize and to act against this threat to homeland security amounts to nothing less than the sanctioning of Scientology’s harmful acts and practices and is not without consequence.

Nothing illustrates this better than a case that is presently working its way through the Indiana state judicial system involving the abuse and exploitation of a vulnerable adult by a self-proclaimed scientologist.

A report of adult endangerment was made to Adult Protective Services (APS) in October 2005. In a bizarre twist of fate APS accused the reporter of the felony of stalking and advised the vulnerable adult to file a petition for an order of protection against him in violation of Indiana Rules of Admission and Disciplinary, Rule 24, which prohibits the practice of law without a license. The reporter requested a hearing during which he argued that the petitioner is not a reasonable person due to the presence and influence of borderline personality disorder (BPD) and that the petition had resulted from the misconduct of APS and filed a motion to order an independent mental examination (IME) of the endangered adult in question.

The presiding judge, who is a self-proclaimed scientologist, threw out the reporter’s argument, denied his motion to order an IME, and granted the petition for the order of protection, thereby denying the reporter the right to present exculpatory evidence and immunity as well as the right to a fair and impartial hearing.

Meanwhile, the county prosecutor launched an investigation of the reporter in an attempt to enforce the void ipso facto order of protection in violation of U.S.C. § 241 and used his office in an attempt to have the reporter terminated from his place of employment in violation of U.S.C. §§ 242 and 245.

An IME would reveal the endangered adult’s mental illness as well as the psychological injury that he has sustained as a result of his subjection to an ongoing program of coercive persuasion, which would result in the quick and just adjudication of the matter, but that relevant evidence continues to be suppressed by the presiding judge, who ruled based on the Scientology doctrine that eschews psychiatry instead of points of law, and the Indiana Judicial Qualifying Commission has ruled that that is not a breach of ethics!

This has been reported to the Department of Justice, The U.S. Attorney’s of both the Northern and Southern Indiana Districts, the Lafayette Resident Agency of the F.B.I., and the Governor and Lieutenant Governor of the state of Indiana, and nothing has been done!

Be afraid…be very afraid! This reporter is.
