"I hear a lot of whining and moaning here and there about how bad it is over  here. But I notice it is always from people who are totally incompetent and  who depend for their communication line on their imagination and with as  little recourse to fact as possible."                                         -L. Ron Hubbard, 1955

Evaluating the Real Truth

“The group occasionally wants to know something about other Scientologists. They have heard things. Those inquiries about myself are best answered in this wise: that in all Ron’s experience with rumors and stories about himself, he has yet to hear one single story come back to him in a form which even vaguely approached the truth or the circumstances about which it was told, and has heard many, many things which did not happen at all. “Thus it is the case with Scientologists at large. Many things are said about them, but they have this experience every now and then that one of these stories comes back to them and, when it comes back to them, they will not recognize the incident.

“It happens that it is the tone level of the general public that scandal and untruth take precedence. I ask you to consult the Chart of Human Evaluation and you will discover in that chart that truth does not exist below the level of 2.0. Therefore, why should you be surprised that so many twisted stories are circulated? They are circulated about you as a Scientologist as well as about me as the Founder of Scientology. Standing together, we can best this vagary of human communication line. The example is set for the public by its newspapers, which themselves offer little but untruths.”

– L. Ron Hubbard
