Kindle Notes & Highlights
LRH had deep disdain for the conventional educational system. Scientology abided by the idea that as long as you were on course, getting an education in Scientology, going to traditional school was not all that important.
"The secret of freedom lies in educating people, whereas the secret of tyranny is in keeping them ignorant." - Robespierre
critical thought is a bad thing; it indicates a criminal act.
LRH explicitly called homosexuality a “perversion.” Then later, he put being gay on the Tone Scale as “Covert Hostility,” which registers at 1.1 on the scale of human emotions, which is considered by Scientologists to be a person avoided at all costs.)
As a gay person I cannot even begin to explain how devastated I am that L.R.H. finds me hostile. I just hope one day I can deal with the saddness of it all. 🙄😒
