More Scientology Miracles! and L. Ron Hubbard Tells You How to Make a Slave
Fellow Scientology watchers, we’re working on several big stories for you. In fact, we went out of town this weekend on a fact-finding mission, and we are planning to tell you about that soon.
But for now, those stories aren’t quite ready. In the meantime, we were so happy to see how popular was Monday’s special look at Advance! magazine, we’re going to bring you some more of that nuttiness to tide you over.
Today, in honor of Scientology’s most cynical holiday, CELEBRITY DAY, we’ve selected some really precious excerpts from way back in 1973, when being a Scientologist wasn’t such a stigma, and could even get you laid, maybe.
As we explained Monday, Advance! is the magazine for experienced church members who are interested in moving up L. Ron Hubbard’s Bridge to Total Freedom, spending enormous amounts to learn the “Operating Thetan” secrets of spiritual enlightenment. These levels promised church members the ability to leave their bodies and perform all sorts of amazing things just with the power of their minds! Having absorbed those super powers, Scientologists liked to share their experiences in the pages of Advance!, and we were recently sent a stack of the magazine that covers the 1970s.
We’ll start with issue 20, which has a fabulous photo of Hubbard himself with a couple of e-meters, no doubt exploring exploits trillions of years back on his “whole track”!
